With 950 million people, India ranks second to China among the most populous(人口多的)countries. But since China launched a family planning program in 1971, India has been【S1】______the gap. Indians have reduced their birth rate but not nearly as much as the Chinese have. If current growth rates continue, India’s population Will【S2】______China’s around the year 2028 at about 1.7 billion.
Should that happen, it won’t be the【S3】______of the enlightened women of Kerala, a state in southern India. While India as a whole adds almost 20 million people a year, Kerala’s population is virtually【S4】______. The reason is no【S5】______: nearly two thirds of Kerala women practice birth control, compared with about 40% in the entire nation.
The difference lies in the emphasis put on health programs, including birth control, by the state authorities. And an educational tradition and matrilineal(母系的)customs in parts of Kerala help girls and boys get【S6】______good schooling. While one in three Indian women is【S7】______, 90% of those in Kerala can read and write.
Higher literacy rates【S8】______family planning. "Unlike our parents, we know that we can do more for our children if we have fewer of them," says Leila Cherian, 33, who lives in the village of Kudamaloor. She has limited herself to three children—one below the【S9】______average of four. That kind of restraint(抑制;克制)will keep Kerala from putting added【S10】______on world food supplies.
[A] stable [F] flexible [K] foster

[C] educated [H] exceed [M] national
[D] pressure [I] equally [N] advocate
[E] fault [J] general [O] officially [br] 【S2】
选项
答案
H
解析
本空需要填入一个及物动词。联系上文,第一段一直在将印度人口与中国人口数量做比较,上一句已经指出,印度对人口出生率虽有控制,但不如中国那么有成效。本句假设的情况是“如果按现在的人口出生率继续增长下去”,推测导致的结果可能就是印度的人口会在2028年超过中国,故选[H] exceed“超过”。
