①Hi ______,

Why should your parents do all the washing?up?You should help around the house—it's only fair. I don't think you should change your looks though. Young people should look like young people.

②Hi______,

Wearing your hair pulled back in a ponytail (马尾辫) will help keep it out of your mouth. When you feel like chewing something, try bubble gum (泡泡糖).Give yourself time and you should be able to break this habit. The first few days are usually the hardest. Good luck!

③Hi ______,

Don't worry about it so much!Phone your friend up as usual and she won't be able to refuse you. I am sure you will get along well with each other. Everything will be fine.

Every second there are, on average, more than four babies being born and fewer than two people dying. As a result, the world population keeps increasing.

The baby will probably be born in the Asia-Pacific region. In this area, the population growth rate is higher than anywhere else in the world.

It is just 12 years since the world’s population reached 6 billion. Official estimates say the number will tip 8 billion in 2025 and 10 billion before the end of the century.

With more and more people in the world, there will be less land and water for each person. The major problem will be feeding the new arrivals. Finding housing and medical care for everyone will also be difficult.

For now, China still has the largest population in the world, with 1.34 billion people. In the past ten years it added 73.9 million, more than the population of France and Thailand.

However, its growth has slowed and it is estimated that the population will stop increasing in 2027. By 2050, according to some experts, China’s population will be smaller than it is today.

This is thanks to the family planning policy that started about 30 years ago. In the 1970s, Chinese women had five to six children each on average. Now the number is around 1.5.
