仁爱科普版初中英语2017年九年级上册Unit 1 Topic 2 The population in developing countries is growing faster. 同步测试卷
The lifestyle of families has changed because of science and industry（工业）.
More Americans used to live on farms, nearly each family had many children. In a farm family, parents and their children often lived with grandparents. Uncles and aunties often lived nearby, too. But when industry became more important than agriculture（农业）in American life, families became smaller, industry needs lots of workers. They must be ready and able to move off the land and move again whenever necessary. It isn't easier for large families to move from place to place as small families can. Today, more and more small families have appeared, smaller families may have no children and they may have only a man and a woman because keeping children is really hard work. It takes parents not only money and time, but also much more energy and makes young couples（夫妇）busy working, studying and enjoying their lives all day. They are probably not important in keeping children.
That's why the increasing of population in most developed countries are becoming more and more slowly, In China today, each family has only one healthy child because of one-child policy.
In this way, the country can develop farther than before and young children can have more opportunities to get education and to find suitable jobs.
