Question II. Read the passage and choose the best answer (A, B, C or D) according to the text.

            Population explosion, or overpopulation, has become a familiar issue for almost everybody in the world, and a serious problem as well.

            The most pressing problem created is perhaps the increasing demand for food, while the area of the earth can never be expanded for more cultivable land. Along with the shortage of food, there are also the problems of decreasing supply of water, less job opportunities, insufficient houses, schools, and health care. Rather, as the rapid growth of population continues, the whole world will face the problems of natural resources being used up at an increasing speed, which, in turn, can only bring about ever serious threat to mankind.

            The problem of employment and population is a world one. It is difficult to solve this problem. Perhaps you think we can build more factories so that more people can get jobs or we adopt strong measures of retirement. However, these cannot solve the problem thoroughly because of many factors.

            The best, perhaps the only solution to solve the problem is to exercise birth control. Only by this means can population growth be checked and related problems be solved.

A. common                B. normal                   C. familiar                 D. urgent

A. the problems created by overpopulation are not limited to developing countries alone

B. the problem of employment and population is hardly a serious one

C. the whole world will face the shortage of natural resources because of the rapid growth of population.
