C(2021·北京顺义区期末改编)
From Nov.1 to Dec.10 in 2020, if someone knocks at your door and wants to ask you some questions, don't be afraid. They are working on the 7th national census. The census collects data including the name, ID number, gender, marital status, education, and profession of Chinese citizens (公民).
China has a census every 10 years. Now China's population has boomed (激增). It is about 1.33 billion in the 6th national census, according to the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS).
"The census is very important for every citizen, "said NBS head Ning Jizhe. "It will help improve infrastructure (基础建设) and public services." For example, if the census shows that there are many children living in a certain area, the government will know that it should build more schools there. Scientists can also learn more about population growth from the census. In some years, the population grows faster than in others. Even in the same year, population growth is different in different places. Scientists can use the information to figure out what causes growth in certain years and places.
The 7th national census is different from past ones in one important way. For the first time, citizens are encouraged to use smartphones and other digital tools to record their information. When census takers knock on your door, they offer you an account (账号) number and a QR code (二维码) so that you can record your information within a certain time.

D(2022·原创)
　　How many children in your family Have you heard of the three-child policy (政策) Everyone knows the one-child policy. It is a population control (控制) method in our country. Chinese government wanted to control the increasing population at that time. Many Chinese parents understood that and followed this policy for nearly 40 years.
However, as time goes by, some problems appear in our society. For example, the number of workers becomes fewer and China is now getting into an aging (老龄化) society. There will be more old people in the following years, but the society will be short of doctors and nurses to take care of them.
That's why Chinese government began the three-child policy in late May last year. It allowed each family to have three children. The government hoped it could help supply (提供) those social problems gradually (逐渐地). This policy would help offer enough workers in the future.
China would support parents who wish to have a third child, according to a meeting of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee(中共中央政治局会议). In order to encourage parents to have the third child, the government took many measures(措施). Lyu Yugang, an official with the Ministry of Education, said last year that after-school services would be further promoted(促进) as a support measure for China's three-child policy. By the end of May, a total of 102,000 primary and junior high schools in China had launched(发起) after-school services, benefiting 65 million students who could not be timely picked up when school hours ended.
(　　)35.What can we know from the passage
A. The one-child policy won't work at all.
B. There are more and more workers in our country.
C. The three-child policy started in late May last year.
D. There is no measure to encourage parents to have the third child.
(　　)36.What does the underlined word "that" in Paragraph 1 mean
A. The family. B. The increasing population.
C. The one-child policy. D. The three-child policy.
(　　)37.In which part of a magazine can we read this passage
A. Traveling and Transportation.
B. Society and History.
C. Food and Health.
D. Science and Art.
(　　)38.The writer may think it is 　　　　to carry out the three-child policy.
A. interesting B. wrong C. surprising D. important

E
India has a population of about 1.38 billion. Its population is the second largest in the world. China has the largest population of over 1.4 billion. One out of six people on this planet lives in India. Although the world's most populous (人口密集的) country has been China for ten years, India will take the position by 2030. With the growth of population, India will have more than 1.53 billion people by the end of 2030. According to a new report, India would become the world's most populous country by about 2027, surpassing China.
Some of the reasons for India's fast-growing population are poverty (贫穷), illiteracy (文盲), the decrease in the death rate and immigration (移民) from Bangladesh and Nepal. India started taking steps to stop the growth rate quite early. India had the"National Family Planning Program"in 1951. However, it failed to reach the final goal (目标).
