how to solve the energy shortage（如何解决能源短缺问题）

energy shortage is a very serious problem in the world. many people worry that energy resources on the earth will be exhausted if we use them in an unchecked way. this, most people agree, will cause serious problems and even crisis and jeopardize the survival of mankind .

on the one hand, most people agree that the problem can be solved in one way or another. one is to conserve and save our energy. energy refers not only to coal, oil, or natural gases but also to goods, land and water, etc. most countries have realized the wastefulness in their using of energy. they are trying to conserve energy. for example, some countries have a daylight saving system to use less electricity for lighting. some cities have enforced water savers at public such as restrooms and bars. some have enforced serious penalties on overuse of electricity, water, and farming land. by these means, people hope the drain on energy resources could be slowed down.

however, conservation alone cannot solve the problem. another way, perhaps the best i think,, is to develop new energy resources. obviously, no matter how hard we try to save energy resources and how abundant they are, we will use them up sooner or later. i think there are many energy resources that we can develop and utilize. we don’t have to depend only on the current conventional energy resources. there are many other energy resources that we can develop such as nuclear power, waterpower and solar power. these resources, if developed, can completely replace the conventional energy and thus solve the problem of energy shortage.

Almost every country in the world faced the population

problem.China has the largest population, so the one-child policy was necessay. In America, there were 2 billion people 20 years ago, now there were 3 billion. Some day they will have the same amount people as we had in china, will they apply our population control policyAnyway we could be sure they will not critize our population policy at that time.

Given is a table which clearly illustrates the striking trend of aged population in China from 1990 to 2050. During the first 22 years, the number of people aged 60 and above ascended slightly from 97.19 to 136 million, and since 2012 it is predicted that this number will surge remarkably, reaching 410 million in 2050. Meanwhile, the proportion of aged citizens revealed and will reveal the similar trend, and it will reach 27.4% in total population.

Such a scenario can be naturally associated with various problems in aged society. For one thing, aged society is best characterized by the more burden for youngsters to support parents, which will enable younger generation to work harder. For another, compared with the past and today, the aged citizens will play a more important role in society. A case in point is their age for retiring will be extended. Therefore, a larger proportion of senior citizens have to take more responsibilities in work, family and society.

Accordingly, it is advisable for Chinese government to focus more eyesight on the coming challenges in the forthcoming future. Meanwhile, it is essential for China to work out comprehensive strategies to strengthen its social welfare to reduce young people’s stress.

Such a scenario can be naturally associated with various problems in aged society, but what resulted in this change above? For one thing, the past 30 years was best characterized by the policy of Family Plan in China, which enabled a host of families to have only one kid and enabled the proportion of youngsters to decline. For another, compared with the past, medical care and quality of life is and will be better; therefore, a larger proportion of people live longer. Consequently, the percentage of aged people showed and will show a trend of rise.

导语：如今，盗版问题变得越来越严重。书籍，磁带，光盘和其他高科技产品已盗版。下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的相关英语作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

Nowadays,the problem of piracy has become more and more serious. Books,tapes,VCDs and others high-tech products have been pirated. For instance,when a new product comes onto market,most probably,its pirated counterpart will soon put on its appearance in the market,too. Piracy has caused a great loss to legitimate producers,inventors and writers in many ways. To start with,the pirated products often cost much less than the genuine ones so that they enjoy a better trading position in spite of their relatively poor quality. The genuine products,on the contrary,sell poorly. Whats worse,pirated books sometimes do great harm to the authorsreputation due to some misprints. In the long run,pirated products may have a negative impact on customers. Those legitimate producerscreativity and enthusiasm may be deeply hurt by the fact that some customers are more interested in the pirated products for the sake of small gains. In my opinion,its high time that everyone started the battle against piracy.First,customers should develop their consciousness to resist the pirated products. Second,the government should take effective measures to put an end to piracy. Finally,laws must be strictly enforced to completely ban piracy. Only in this way can we wipe the pirated products out of our life.

如今，盗版问题变得越来越严重。书籍，磁带，光盘和其他高科技产品已盗版。例如，当一个新产品出现在市场上，最有可能的是，它的盗版产品很快就会出现在市场上。盗版行为在许多方面给合法的生产者、发明家和作家造成了巨大的损失。首先，盗版产品通常要比那些正版的要低得多，以至于他们在质量相对较低的情况下享有较好的交易地位。相反，真正的产品卖不好。更糟糕的是，盗版书有时危害巨大，由于一些作者错误的观点。从长远来看，盗版产品可能会对客户产生负面影响。那些合法的生产者的热情，也许是因为有些客户是在盗版产品为了少的收益更感兴趣，深深的伤害了。在我看来，每个人都开始了打击盗版的斗争，第一，客户应该发展他们的意识，抵制盗版产品。其次，政府应采取有效措施，结束盗版。最后，法律必须严格执行，完全禁止盗版。只有这样，我们才能把盗版产品从我们的生活中抹去。

范文 (One possible version)

Hello, everyone,

Now I’ll tell you something about our research project The World Food Crisis on behalf of our group. As you know, food shortages have hit many countries in the world and even caused social unrest in some areas. But who is responsible for the current world food crisis? First, annual world grains output has declined because of climate change. Then lots of farmland has been lost due to the rapid development of industry and urbanization. Besides, faced with the rising energy prices, people have turned to the production of biofuels, which has worsened the severe situation.

Then what should we do to deal with the problem? On one hand, we should focus on the environmental protection and improve the ecology. On the other hand, strict measures should be taken to protect farmland. Of course, to build a harmonious world the developed countries should take their responsibilities to help the poor ones experiencing food shortage.

As for me, I will call on the people around me to live thriftily. And for the moment, I think, we should study hard to develop science and help solve the food shortage in the future.

China has already begun to face an aging population. It is reported that by 2003 in China, the population over 65 years of age the proportion of the total population will reach 7%, which will allow China into the United Nations in 1956 set the population aging countries in the world. By 2020, this proportion will be increased to 10.85%, while in 2050, it will reach 20.43%.

At present, the time being will not become the worlds largest country in the elderly population. However, it is the process of aging faster than any other developing country. In fact, China will become the worlds population, one of the fastest aging process, this change brought to China unfavorable factors, it needs China to take a unique way to take care of the aging population.

Respect for the elderly project

In recent years, Chinas economy developed rapidly, with the strength becomes stronger, the state since 1990, security expenses for the elderly are more than 100 billion yuan every year, but also the state was increasing year after year, while also encouraging social and personal fund-raising, donations of non-juvenile welfare facilities set up to address a number of elderly people a sense of security, old age care issues. However, for a big country like China, but also there are other ways to those who need help to provide assistance for lonely elderly people. Care in the community, a warmth of respect for the elderly project in China, the rise of many young people took part in respecting the obligation to engineering work, they not only raised in all directions to bring the material assistance to the elderly, but also for their daily needs and get a wide range of help, thus bringing the warmth and love dedicated to the lonely and helpless old man.

This shows that the "senior citizen project," is Chinas aging population on the eve of a large number of old age to solve the problem of looking into a way to have multiple meanings, which not only brought the Gospel to the lonely elderly, but also carry forward the socialist spiritual civilization.

中国已经开始面临人口老龄化。据报道，到2003年，中国65岁以上人口占总人口的比例将达到7%，这将使中国在1956年联合国世界上人口老龄化国家。到2020年，这一比例将上升到10.85%，而在2050年，它将达到20.43%。

目前，暂时不会成为世界上最大的国家的老年人口。然而，它是一个过程，老化速度比其他发展中国家。事实上，中国将成为世界上人口老龄化最快的一个过程，这一变化将对中国不利的因素，它需要中国采取一种独特的方式照顾老年人。

尊重老年人的项目

近年来，中国经济发展迅速，与实力强大了，国家自1990年以来，安全费用为老年人每年超过1000亿元，而且该州增加了年复一年，同时也鼓励社会和个人募捐，捐款福利设施的设置来解决很多老年人一种安全感，老年护理的问题。然而，对于像中国这样一个大国，但也有其他方面需要帮助的人提供帮助孤独的老人。社区内照顾，温暖的尊重老年人的项目在中国的崛起，许多年轻人参加工程工作尊重的义务，他们不仅提高了四面八方，将材料帮助老人，而且对他们的日常需要和得到广泛的帮助，因此带来的温暖和爱献给孤独和无助的老人。

这表明“老年人项目，“是中国老龄化的前夕，大量的老来解决这个问题的调查方法有多个含义，这不仅给孤独的老人带来了福音，同时也弘扬社会主义精神文明。

From these graphs, we can draw a conclusion that, with the growth of human population, the number of species has decreased rapidly in America, and some species have even vanished from our planet.

Why does this phenomenon appear? There are several possible reasons for this. Above all, as the human population grows rapidly, a growing number of people came to live where some wild species have been living. Then these species have to move to other places. Some of them probably can not adapt to the new environment and die. In addition, although many people look on the wildlife as their friends, some people may not think so. They catch a lot of wild animals and sell them in order to get more money. Even worse/More importantly, as the result /consequence of the industry, the natural balance and the ecologic environment are destroyed. The clear cutting has become increasingly serious. So some of the wildlife become homeless and extinct.

In order to protect the wildlife, I have some suggestions. First, the governments should make laws to prevent them from being caught and killed. Second, the governments should educate people to love nature and protect it. Third, as for ourselves, we should take practical actions to protect our living environment.

Progress in science and the improvement of living conditions have led to the rapid growth of the world population. Modern medicine, for example, has made it possible for babies to grow up healthily and for people to live longer. With improved living conditions, particularly in the countryside, people tend to have larger families. As a result, the world population has increased so rapidly that it has now exceeded 6 billion.

But the overgrowth of population presents a threat to the existence of human society. A large population demands a GREat deal of food supply and shelter space. However, limited productivity and scarce world resources can hardly meet the needs of the ever-increasing population. Thus, in the long run, the overgrowth of the world population will only harm mankind.

To guarantee the steady development of human society, mankind must realize the consequences resulting from fast population growth and carry out a family planning programme. Only by adopting effective measures, can human society develop steadily and have a bright future.

很久很久以前，有一个王国，民殷国富，人们快乐的生活着。可从那一天开始，一切都改变了……

那一天，阳光明媚。国王在黄盖的阴影下，挺着圆滚滚的肚子，慢吞吞地走着。

突然，一个道士挡住了国王的路。锦衣卫立马出动，“嚓、嚓、嚓”宝剑统统出鞘。

“呵呵，政通人和、百废具兴，真是繁荣兴盛啊。只是……可惜，可惜啊……”道士捋着胡须说道。

因为国王是个信道的人，一听“可惜”二字就慌了神。

“把剑统统给我放下!”国王命令锦衣卫。

“道……道长，您可惜什么?”国王小心翼翼地问。

“可惜?我可惜这个国家的人口太少，太冷清，无法将此国内的鬼怪逼走。”

“如果，如果以后一起这样，我的国家会变成什么样子?”国王的嘴唇开始颤抖。

“你的国家会变成孤魂野鬼的领地!”道士有力地说出。

国王“蹭”的一下坐到了地上，他的额头密密麻麻地聚满了汗珠。

“那，那有什么办法吗?”

“办法就是增加人口数量。”

“好，好，我明白了。”

“来人啊，行，行赏。”国王赐给道士许多金银财宝。

国王回到了宫中，“变成孤魂野鬼的领地”“你的国家会变成孤魂野鬼的领地!”国王的耳旁一直回荡着这句话，“嘭”国王一拍桌子，响亮的说：“我的国家一定要有很多人，很多人，哈哈哈哈!”

在客栈的高等客房里，道士数着金银财宝，说：“哈哈哈哈，今天可是赚翻了，没想到，这么富有的国家竟会有个这么愚蠢的国王，连这种鬼话都信。真是服啊!哈哈!”

第二天。

皇榜前，聚集着很多人。

“唉，他们看什么呢?”

“管他呢，走，咱也过去看看。”

越来越多的人涌向皇榜。有个人惊讶地将皇榜上的字读了出来：“奉天乘运，皇帝诏曰：即日起，本国居民须急速产子，越多越好，最少不得少于十子。违反皇命者，杀无赦!钦此。”

“什么嘛，谁能生这么多啊。”

“就是，生这么多还不把人累死啊。”

“对呀。”

人们逐渐散开，虽然很不服，但还是遵守了。每家每户都一样，都有十个以上的孩子。毕竟有“杀无赦”逼着呢!

数年后。

大街上满满的全是人，几乎寸步难行。该国的商业，一天比一天发达，但失业者越来越多。

满头白发的国王看着报告兴奋得大笑着。“哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈……多好啊，你看。多好啊……”国王笑着笑着突然停住了，“咳咳咳咳咳咳咳咳!“国王开始了剧烈的咳嗽，面部逐渐惨白。终于咳出鲜血，死在书桌上。

国王驾崩，全国上下报丧三天。

第二天，太子身着孝服，双眼通红地走在护城楼上，向下一看。吓了一跳，哇塞!街上简直成了白色的海洋。人们你推我嚷，乱哄哄的。太子摸着下巴，想：“这人口也太多了。”

第三天，太子登基。

新的皇榜再次登出。

“哇，又有什么怪命令出来啦。”

“就是，上次的那个命令把我们害得可够惨的，我有十五个孩子被踩死了，幸运的是我还有三十五个孩子呢。”

“那这次是?”

“走吧，赶快过去看。”

街上形成了一个巨大的旋涡，很多人被踩死，过了好大一会儿，有人喊：“既然都看不到，那找一个嗓门高的人来念吧。”

于是，一人举着喇叭，念起来：“奉天乘运，皇帝诏曰：即日起，有人犯罪，一律死刑，不管犯事大小，一律斩首!钦此。”

“啊!”人们喊着，露出紧张的心情。

就算这样，还有人不遵守，小偷小摸、持刀抢劫，依然肆然。于是乎，新国王把所有犯事的人揪出来，扔到菜市口，被乱刀砍死。从那日开始，人们总是很忧郁，紧张的什么都不敢做。终于，半数以上的人患了神经衰弱，自杀而忘。新国王看到这种现象，刚沾沾自喜。便有兵来报。

“报~~~~，邻国出动100万大军杀过来啦。”

国王张大嘴巴，因为这个国家的人，就剩下30万人了。国王张大眼睛、嘴巴，坐在龙椅上，一动不动，直到被杀。

Environmental problems are becoming more and more serious all over the world. With the development of industry and agriculture, cars make great noises and give off poisonous gas. Trees on the hills have been cut down,and waste water is being poured continuously into rivers.

Furthermore,wherever we go today, we can find rubbish carelessly disposed. The whole ecological balance of the earth is changing. Massive destruction of environment has brought about negative effects and even poses a great threat to mans existence.

We must face the situation that exists and take actions to solve our environmental problems. For instance, new laws must be passed to place strict control over industrial pollution, the pub!ic must receive the education about the hazard of pollution and so on. We hope that all these measures will be effective and bring back a healthful environment.

全世界的环境问题在变得越来越严重。随着工农业的发展，汽车制造噪音、排放毒气，山上的树木被砍伐，污水不断被排入河里。另外，无论我们走到哪里，到处可见随意丢弃的垃圾。整个地球生态平衡正在改变，环境的巨大破坏已带来负面影响，甚至对人类生存带来巨大威胁。

我们必须面对现实，采取行动解决环境问题。例如必须通过新的法律严格控制工业污染问题，大众必须接受污染危害的教育等。我们希望这些措施的有效实施能带给我们一个健康的环境。

Our family lives in an old residence. Although those buildings have built for nearly ten years, everything is good to live there. There are several schools around it. Everything is very convenient. But there is a problem makes me afraid. The parking lot is too dark. About a week ago, the lights of the parking lot were broken. But there is nobody to fix them. So the whole parking lot is in dark. Everytime when I get off my father’s car, I will hold his hand right away, because I am very afraid of darkness. I hope someone can fix the lights as soon as possible.

我们家住在一个比较老的小区。虽然那些房子都已经建了差不多十年了，但是在那里生活一切都挺好的。附近有好几所学校。什么事情都很方便。但是有一个问题让我很害怕。那就是停车场太黑了。大约一星期前，停车场的灯坏了。但是没人去修。所以整个停车场就陷在黑暗中。每次我一下我爸爸的车后，我都会马上抓住他的手走，因为我很怕黑。我希望有人能尽快修好电灯。

What Can We Do for the Environment

our environment is becoming worse and worse，what can we do for the environment?I think each of us can do a little bit to help with this problem。

The first thing we can do is to use cloth bags instead of plastic bags when we go shopping. It helps to protect the environment. The second thing we can do is to reuse the old textbooks as possible as we can. We should also never forget to turn off the lights when we leave the classrooms in order to save energy. Whats more，it would be better if we walk or ride a bike to school. We should try our best to reduce pollution and waste。

In fact，even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. I believe we can make the world a better place to live in.

With more and more cars coming into our families, we are happy that it has greatly improved our life. But unluckily, it has also brought many problems, such as heavy traffic and traffic accidents。

Traffic safety is everybodys business. We must obey the rules. For example, we must walk on walk side, when we cross zebra – crossing, stop and look right and left, then go across fast. Don’t play football on the road .we can tell our parents not to drink before they drive, not to run through red lights, not to talk and laugh while driving etc。

We can say cars are coming into our life, but only when everybody thinks traffic safety is everybodys business can we be safe driving on roads and walking on sidewalks。

我们可以说汽车进入我们的生活,但是只有当所有人都认为交通安全是每个人的业务我们可以安全驾驶在道路和人行道上走。

The large number of our population has become one of the most serious problems of our society. According to a recent survey of the National Bureau of Statistics, there are more than 1.3 billion people in our country, which account for about 1/5 of all the people in the world. The same survey also predicts that our population will grow quickly in the years to come.

Overpopulation has brought about a series of negative effects to our economic development and social security. In the first place, too many people impose a heavy burden on our environment. As a result, we suffer from a shortage of fresh water and natural resources. In the second place, as the supply of labor greatly exceeds the demand of the society, many people become employed. This is a source of social unrest. Last but not least, we have to manufacture all kinds of products to meet the needs of the people, which causes environment pollution to our lakes and land.

Serious though the problem seems, we have to take some measures to tackle it. On the one hand, the government should carry out more strictly the policy of family planning, thus reducing the total number of population. On the other hand, all the people should realize the harms of overpopulation. With the concerted efforts of all the parties concerned, we’re sure to solve the problem in the future.

2004 marks the 10th anniversary of the groundbreaking International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) in Cairo, Egypt, in 1994.

Ten years ago, on the eve of World Population Day, a new campaign was launched to raise awareness of how international family planning helps save women and childrens lives, safeguard the environment, and slow population growth. 179 governments committed to it when they signed the Program of Action of ICPD, which prescribes the steps that will not only save millions of womens lives but empower（授权, 使能够）societies to achieve a better future.

Today, there are more than 6 billion people on the planet, with half of the worlds population under the age of 25-at or just reaching their childbearing（分娩）years.

Nearly 600,000 women still die each year from pregnancy-related causes. And an estimated 90 percent of infants whose mothers die at childbirth will not survive to their first birthday.

Wild species are becoming extinct 50 to 100 times faster than they naturally would, because of the impact of rapid population growth and increased population density in many countries.

Though population growth is slowing worldwide, more than 90 percent of current growth occurs in the developing world where needs are great and resources are scarce. And these nations have a huge unmet need for family planning services-over 150 million married women of reproductive age in the developing world indicate that they would prefer to postpone childbearing but are not using any method of contraception.

"Girl born today in the developing world faces better prospects than a girl who was born 10 years ago. School enrolment rates are increasing, mortality is declining and life expectancy（平均寿命） is rising, more and more women and couples are able to choose the number and spacing of their children and many countries are taking additional steps to confront HIV/AIDS. But progress is uneven, and in some cases slipping backwards. We need the strength and determination of a marathon（马拉松赛跑）runner to meet our goals during the next decade."

中国是一个发展中国家，面积约为96万平方千米，位居世界第三，而且我国还是世界上人口最多的.国家，位居世界第一，这是我国的重要国情。

据统计，中国每年约有50000人死亡，其中一半死于非命。金鸡年，人口死亡路程上升趋势。中国正在一步步的发展，为什麽人口死亡率却逐年增加？中国现在仍处于贫困时期，随人中国从建国以来一直实行改革开放政策，但却不见成效。（如：1993年，我国国内总产值达5446亿美元，居世界第7位，人均占有量却处在第125位）当触及中国的资源问提时，国人总会骄傲的答曰，我国是资源种类繁多，数量丰富，是世界上的资源大国。殊不知，由于我国人口众多，资源早已被分割的寥寥无几（如：我国耕地在低26位）由于资源分布不均，从而导致有的人占有极少的资源，贫困潦倒，且缺水严重，从而导致许多人渴死，饿死。

中国由于人口众多，曾被称作“骑在自行车上的国家”，现在，虽然家家户户都有了自己的私车，但交通繁忙，很可能导致交通事故，且许多司机“执法而不依法行事”（如：酒后驾车，硬闯红路灯，横冲马路）从而导致许许多多的人死于非命。

我国的工业不仅发达，而且工厂遍布全国各地，人们的环保意识越来越差。截至至今，我国的环境污染，生态破坏仍相当严重。无锡人有一段歌谣，描述了大运河税制的变化：“50年代淘米洗菜；60年代水质变坏；70年代鱼虾绝代；80年代洗不净马桶盖”环境的污染，更是威胁着人类的生命，向肺结核，矽肺病，肺典等不易治疗的病症，像一把锋利的尖刀，刺杀了许许多多无辜的生命。综上所述，是中国死亡人数的主要原因。

我认为，国家应该用可施行的好办法，使人懂得生命的重要性；更好的落实改革开放政策。

Population Burden

Many countries will experience aging populations in the next century because of declining birth and mortality rates. China will soon join their ranks.

As for the issue of aging, its situation has been growing increasingly severe in spite of the fact most people are still ignorant of the problems it brings about. Firstly, with families becoming smaller and living pace escalating, it is even graver for families to care for aged members adequately. Secondly, aging causes a relative decline in working force in that fewer people have to support the increasing aged people.

练完这篇四级作文押题预测以后，考生要注意归纳总结，以后在考试中遇到这类社会问题的作文就不用怕了。

王维嘉和丈夫几乎可以说是听着“控制人口数量，关爱地球母亲”的宣传长大的。

Wang Weijia and her husband grew up surrounded by posters proclaiming "Mother Earth is too tired to sustain more children."

他们将这个口号铭记在心，以至于今夏上海政府改变政策、鼓励年轻人生二胎时，他们迅速且坚定地表示：绝不!据悉，上海政府推出此举是受到了城市低出生率和人口老龄化问题双方面影响。

They learned the lesson so well that when Shanghai government officials, alarmed by their citys low birthrate and aging population, changed course this summer and began encouraging young couples to have more than one child, their reaction was instant and firm: No way.

“我们已经将全部时间和精力放在了独生子上，没精力再要第二个孩子了，”31岁的某公司人力资源主管王维嘉说。他们的儿子现在8个月大。

We have already given all our time and energy for just one child. We have none left for a second, said the 31-year-old Wang, a human resources administrator with an 8-month-old son.

一直以来，人们都认为计划生育政策会缓解就业市场的压力，同时保护自然资源。但是，它也导致了危险的低出生率和极大的老龄化人口数量。有专家表示，政府不大可能改变计划生育这一国策，因此，官员们正试图寻找其他方法来解决这一政策所产生的问题。

The family planning policy has been credited with easing job market pressures and preserving natural resources. Yet it has also led to a dangerously low birth-rate and an unusually large aging population. While experts say the government is unlikely to change the national policy, officials are looking into ways that they can address the policys downside.

中国的计划生育政策制定于20世纪70年代。该政策鼓励晚婚晚育，限制城市夫妇只要一个孩子，农村夫妇可以要两个孩子。新华社援引官方数据称，国家的出生率从1978年的1.8%降至2007年的1.2%，累计减少人口数量4亿人。

Chinas family planning policy was formulated in the early 1970s. It encourages late marriages and late childbearing, and it limits most urban couples to one child and most rural couples to two children. Official figures show that the countrys birth rate dropped from 1.8 percent in 1978 to around 1.2 percent in 2007, resulting in 400 million fewer births cumulatively, according to the Xinhua news agency.

与此同时，联合国人口署预计，截至2020年，60岁以上(包括60岁)的中国居民数量将占人口总量的16.%，到2050年这个比例将达到31.1%。

At the same time, the number of Chinese residents 60 and older is predicted to explode from 16.7 percent of the population in 2020 to 31.1 percent by 2050, according to the UN Population Division. That is far above the global average of about 20 percent.

在发达的沿海城市，例如上海，受教育人口数量相对较高，这种不平衡现象则更为显著。《中国日报》去年报道说，60岁以上(包括60岁)人口数量占上海注册居民总量的22%，而上海的出生率还不到每对夫妻一个孩子。

The imbalance is worse in wealthy coastal cities with highly educated populations, such as Shanghai. Last year, according to China Daily, people 60 and older accounted for almost 22 percent of Shanghais registered residents, while the birthrate was less than one child per couple.

人口学专家、国家人口计生委专家委员田雪原最近在《人民日报》发表署名文章，建议允许夫妇双方为独生子女者生育两个孩子。

Tian Xueyuan, a population specialist and member of the National Population and Family Planning Commission (NPFPC), addressed these concerns in the Peoples Daily recently. Tian proposed that couples who are the only children in their families should be allowed to have two children.

同时，一些地方政府已经开始采取措施改善所管辖地区的现状，国家人口计生委委员史春静表示，以上海为例，允许夫妻双方都是独生子女的家庭生二胎。

Meanwhile, some local governments are already taking steps to improve the situation in their regions, according to Shi Chunjing, an official of NPFPC. Shanghai, for instance, is giving certain urban residents (if both husband and wife are the only children) permission to have two children.
