题目内容
2.Soon after you have your first child,the question of having a second one is raised by friends and family.However,as the pattern of having two children in a family is challenged by modern family units,there are a few reasons why it is not selfish to want only one child.Today,the role of women has changed a lot.But nowadays,a wife has to help her husband earn the bread and butter as well as well as looking after her family.In demanding times like these,a woman has to put in more physical and emotional effort than any other member of the family.
Raising a child comes at a cost that remains only heard of,until you find yourself paying it.The good reality of double income with no kids suddenly comes crashing down when there is a child involved in the picture.When one parent (the mother) needs to take some time off to look after the newborn,only one person becomes the earning member.Of course,the expenses went up rapidly.According to Susan Newman,PhD,a social psychologist,the average cost of raising a child is $227,000from birth to college.
Most young mothers also think that having one child would mean that there is more income for the child,and thus,better facilities can be provided.It is much easier to educate a single child at a good school,and give him/her better life with more resources at hand.
With several children in the house,it becomes increasingly difficult to find ways to spend time with all of them.Dividing your time with just one child means that you can devote a little more time to doing the things you want to.In a single child unit,there are less comparison and more chances for positive motivation to learn new things.A happy child,who deserves the rightful attention,love,care,and time from both the parents,always gets a meaningful childhood,for both the parents and the child.

A.It is not selfish to have only one child in a family.
B.Raising a child costs a lot nowadays.
C.It is more difficult to raise several children in a family.

73.What can we learn from the last paragraph?B

B.The only child in a family can more easily get a wonderful childhood.
C.A family with only one child is surely better than a family with several children.
D.You can be more relaxed with several children.
74.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage to support the writer's opinion?C
A.better education.B.meaningful childhood.
