二、阅读理解
A
Is the world too crowded Well, that s a hard question to answer. It s a matter of the perspective(视角). In Montana, you might drive a mile in any direction and might not see another human being. In Macao, 60,000 people live in every square mile!
What is true is that the world s population doesn t stay the same. It has been increasing fast. That s in part because in each generation(代) there are more people who then have children than the last generation.
Five hundred years ago, the population of the world was about 460 million. In 1900, the world s population was under 2 billion(十亿). Right now it is doubling every 40 years. That means, if this rate of growth continues, when you are a parent, there will be twice as many people on earth as there are now. Soon the world s population will probably reach 8 billion. Some people worry about that! But there is a lot of disagreement about just how many people on earth means too many people. But everyone agrees that the more people there are, the more resources(资源) the world needs to offer and the more need there is to think carefully about how we live and use the earth s resources.

A. Montana is too crowded B. Macao is too crowded
