     Macao is only forty miles away from Hong Kong and it is easy to reach. It is an interesting place and it
  has a long history.  Macao is a part of China, and it was returned to China in 1999, and most people

 gamble. But Macao is a quiet and peaceful place. It is pleasant just to walk around and look at the old
 buildings and forts. You feel you are back in the old days. Of course, some of the buildings are now in
 ruins. The church of St. Paul has only the front wall with steps leading up to it. But it is still interesting to
 see.
     When you are hot and tired, there are small cool gardens to rest in. When you are hungry, there are
  good restaurants with many kinds of food.  Nearby are islands, which are also nice to visit and are easy

     Is the world too crowded? Well, that's a hard question to answer. It's all a matter of perspective (視角).
In Montana, you might drive for a mile in any direction and not see another human being. In Macao,60,000
people live in every square mile!
     What is true is that the world's population doesn't stay the same. It has been increasing at a very fast rate
(比例). That's in part because in each generation (代) these are more people who then have children than in
the last generation.
     Five hundred years ago, the population of the world was about 460 million. In 1900,the world's population
was under 2 billion (十億). Right now it is doubling every 40 years. That means, if this rate of growth
continues, when you are a parent, there will be twice as many people on earth as there are now. Wow! Now
that's a whole lot of people! Soon the world's population will probably reach 7 billion. Some people worry
about that! But there is a lot of disagreement about just how many people on earth equals (相當(dāng)于) too many
people. But everyone agrees that the more people there are, the more resources (資源) the world needs to feed,
house and take care of all of them, and the more need there is to think carefully about how we live and use the
earth's resources.
1. From the first paragraph we can know that _____.
A. Montana is too crowded
B. Macao is too crowded
C. the world is too crowded

C. 40 billion.
D. 7 billion.
4. The writer thinks that with the population increasing, we should _____.
A. find more resources
B. use more resources
C. think about our ways of living
D. move to other places
