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】______.

E
