      Mankind is feeling greater pressure from the expanding number of people. The area of the earth can never be expanded. Nor are there endless sources of food and clothing. Yet people are being born faster than they are dying. In the next forty years, the world population may double. How can so many people be fed? What is worse, there is danger that someday mankind will have only standing room.

      Birth control should be a basic policy in our country. China has the greatest number of population in the world. With a high birth rate, the production of grains and goods will be unable to meet the need of the people. To raise people’s living standard, we must practise birth control.

      There are disadvantages of a family having more children. First, parents cannot give their children a good breeding in food, clothing and shelter, let alone education. Second, child-rearing will exhaust the parents, leaving no time and energy for their work. Last, a family with more children will increase the burden of society.

A. people don't know how to limit population

B. government hasn't provided birth-control methods.

C. people are being born faster than they are dying

Read the passage and choose the correct answer for each question from 23 to 27

Thanksgiving is celebrated in the US on the fourth Thursday in November. For many Americans it is the most important holiday apart from Christmas. Schools, offices and most businesses close for Thanksgiving, and many people make the whole weekend a vacation.

Thanksgiving is associated with the time when Europeans first came to North America. In 1620 the ship the Mayflowers arrived, bringing about 150 people who today are usually called Pilgrims. They arrived at the beginning of a very hard winter and could not find enough to eat, so many of them died. But in the following summer Native Americans showed them what foods were safe to eat, so that they could save food for the next winter. They held a big celebration to thank God and the Native Americans for the fact that they had survived.

Today people celebrate Thanksgiving to remember these early days.

The most important part of the celebration is a traditional dinner with foods that come from North America. The meal includes turkey, sweet potatoes (also called yams) and cranberries, which are made into a kind of sauce or jelly. The turkey is filled with stuffing or dressing, and many families have their own special recipe. Dessert is pumpkin made into a pie.

On Thanksgiving there are special television programs and sports events. In New York there is the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, when a long line of people wearing fancy costumes march through the streets with large balloons in the shape of imaginary characters. Thanksgiving is considered the beginning of the Christmas period, and the next day many people go out to shop for Christmas presents.

According to the passage, Pilgrims are _________.

A. people who left their home and went to live in North America in the early 17th century

B. people who travelled to America by ships

C. trips that religious people make to a holy place

D. Native Americans who live in North America
