It is most difficult for parents to decide whether to have a second child or not. It is often heard that a single child is like to be a lonely child. There are no other children in the family for the child to talk or play with. An only child is not able to get along well with children of his age. Some parents regretted making the decisions to have only one child.
But the number of parents choosing to have only one child is increasing in many parts of the world. In the US, for example, more than14 percent of women between 18 and 34 plan to have just one child. The same can be seen in the UK. In Japan, the average number of children born per family had gone down to 1.42 by 1996.
For some single-child parents, especially who are busy working every day, time and energy seem to be overwhelming. They don’t have enough time and energy to share with more children. For other people, money is their first consideration. Many couples in Japan choose not to have large families as the cost of supporting a child up to the
age of 18 reaches around US$160,000.
25. According to the passage, why is a single child likely to be lonely?
A. Because he doesn’t have a brother or a sister to talk or play with.
B. Because he doesn’t have holidays.
C. Because his parents don’t love him.
D. Because there are other children in the family.
26. What do people not think about when they choose to have a second child?
A. food B. energy C. money D. time
27. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Many couples in Japan love to have large families.
B. All parents feel confident (自信的) about having a second child.
C. It is not easy to make a decision to have a second child.
D. Less than 14% of women in the UK plan to have just one child.
