答案     The graph shows the percentage of a country’s dependent population—those below the age of 15 or above the age of 65—in the year 2000 and a projected number for 2050. The percentage of dependents in India, Indonesia, China, Korea and Japan are placed against that of the world average, which stood at around 25% in 2000 and is predicted to exceed 40% of humanity 37 years from now.
    Of the countries examined, only India is forecast to reduce its overall number of dependents; from around 37% to 30%. Indonesia and China show the least variation, China being the country closest to maintaining equilibrium, with 35% in 2000 creeping marginally up to 37% in 2050.
    Korea and Japan, meanwhile, are predicted to experience a major increase in their dependency ratios. Japan will go from being roughly equal to Indonesia and China in 2000 to being the only member of the group to outstrip the world average in 2050, with over 45% of its populations dependent on the able-bodied. It is Korea, however, which shows the most drastic shift—rising from 18% (around 5% less than the world average) to 42%, the second-highest in the group, and equal to the estimated world average dependency ratio of 2050.
