贵州省黔东南州2020届九年级上学期英语期末考试试卷

阅读短文,完成各小题.

Most new people were born in developing countries. These countries are found in much of Africa, South America and some parts of Asia. In the developed countries of Europe and North America, the population is growing slowly. This is because women in the countries have, on average (平均),only one or two children. In the developing countries, many women have five or more children. In 1950, around one quarter of the world's population lived in the developed countries. By 2050, these countries will be home to only around one tenth of the world's people.

In the developing counties more than one billion people are still living below the poverty(贫困) line. These people do not have enough food to eat and they live in poor houses. Children get little time at school and people suffer (遭受痛苦) from many kinds of diseases.

At the beginning of the 21st century, the world's population was around six billion. The UN (联合国) has said that the world's population will continue to grow, reaching 14 billion before it becomes stable (稳定的),or even falls.

(1)、In what areas (区域) of the world can developing countries be found?
(2)、Why is the population growing slowly in the developed counties of Europe and North America?
(3)、In 1950,what percent of the world's population lived in developing countries?
(4)、How can we describe the people living below the poverty line?
(5)、According to the UN, what will the world's population reach?

 Wu Jingxun, 46, is from Foshan, Guangdong Province. About 15 years ago, when he came to volunteer at a village primary school in Sichuan Province for the first time, he found the kids there didn't have enough books to read. He also found that there weren't any books at the students' homes.

 After that, Wu and his friends at Friends Camp, a volunteer organization (组织), bought many books for the primary school.

 One year later, in 2007, when they visited the school again, they found that children in the village did not know how to read. Even though you put great books in front of them, they just looked through the picture books. They didn't learn from the books. This made Wu and his friends think how to teach children to read.

 In some good primary schools, grade-three students can finish reading 15 books a year and, sometimes even more. But, in poor villages, grade-six students only know about 1,800 Chinese characters(汉字).

Now Wu focuses on(专注) picture books and science as he volunteers to teach children how to read. "If they can take up reading as a good habit, they can benefit (受益) more. They can read in their free time but not just play games or use Douyin on their phones," Wu said.
