continue into the 21st century, although more slowly. The worlds population is projected to grow from 6
billion in 1999 to 9 billion by 2042, an increase of 50 percent that will require 43 years.
The worlds population growth rate rose from about 1.5 percent per year from 1950 to 1951 to a
peak of over 2 percent in the early 1960s due to rising age at marriage as well as increasing availability
and use of effective contraceptive methods. Note that changes in population growth have not always
been steady. A dip in the growth rate from 1959- 1960, for instance, was due to the Great leap Forward
in China. During that time, both natural disasters and decreased agricultural output in the wake of
massive social reorganization caused Chinas death rate to rise sharply and its fertility rate to fall by
almost half.

TEST 2
I. Read the passage, then decide whether the following statements are True or False:
Im in a favour of English- speaking contests in school. Such contests encourage students to
practise speaking English in their classes and help them improve their speaking skills. Besides, while
preparing themselves for the contest, students have a chance to review their lesson thoroughly. Contests
among classes provide students with opportunities to work with team spirit, thus enabling them to learn
how to cooperate with other people. Some students may think that their preparation for the speaking
contests are time- consuming. However, in my opinion, such preparations are worth spending time on.
My classmates and I have found that we speak English better after each contest. In sum, Englishspeaking contests in school are useful to students.
1. English- speaking contests give students opportunities to practise
speaking English.
