Are you good at eating? Do you want to eat every delicious food in the world? Then do you watch the popular program? “A Bite of China(舌尖上的中国)” is a documentary on Chinese delicious food which has been broadcast by CCTV. Food is very important in China. Here are several traditional Chinese foods：
Eggs hold a special meaning in many cultures. Chinese believe that eggs mean producing something new. For example， after a baby is born， parents may hold a " big party，" where they pass out eggs to announce(宣布)the birth.
Noodles are a symbol of long life in Chinese culture. They are as much a part of a Chinese birthday celebration as a birthday cake with lit candles in many countries. Since noodles represent long life， it is considered very unlucky to cut them off.
Although westerners sometimes may be very sorry to see fish lying on a plate， in China a whole fish is a symbol of richness. In fact， at a party it is traditional to serve the whole fish last. Fish also has a special meaning because the Chinese word for fish， yu， sounds like the word for richness or plenty， and it is believed that eating fish will help your wishes come true in the future.
Another very popular food during the Dragon Boat Festival is Zongzi. This tasty food is made of rice dumplings with meat， peanut or other delicious food in bamboo leaves. The tradition of Zongzi is meant to remind us of a great man， Qu Yuan.

The government in China plans to end its one-child policy and let families have two children instead. The change is meant to balance population development， stop a falling birth rate( 出生率) and strengthen(增加) the country’s labor force(劳动力).
China， with the largest population in the world， started the one –child policy in 1980. But the government allowed only a small number of couples to have two children. For example， some families in the countryside could have two children， if the first-born child is a girl.
In 2013， the Chinese government gave other couples a chance to have two children if one of them was an only child.
At the end of 2014， China had a population of 1.37 billion people. A total of 800 million of them have jobs. But the labor market population will drop in 35 years. That is to say， the country will be in great need of labor by the year 2050. With the two-child policy， an increase in births can solve this problem.
But too many young people in the cities are no longer interested in having a second child. Boys and girls， what do you think of the two-child policy? Do you want to have a new-born brother or a sister?
1.Why does the government plan to end the one-child policy?
A. Because we need a larger population.
B. Because millions of people have jobs.
C. Because most families want to have a second child.
D. Because a falling birth rate must be stopped.
2.The meaning of “two-child policy” is______.
A. 二胎政策 B. 两个小孩 C. 二孩策略 D. 二孩保险
3.When will our country be seriously short of labor if the one-child policy continues?
A. In 2015. B. In 2035. C. In 2050. D. In 2070
4.What may happen after we have the two-child policy?
A. There will be more old people.
B. The labor market population will drop.
C. Almost every family will have a second child.
D. The population development will be balanced.
