中国发展的关键(Key to Chinas Development)

　　since the chinese governmaent drew up family planning as one of the basic state policies in 1979, the country has adopted various measures and achieved great success in birth control. the total birth rate has been decreasing gradually.

　　however, at present, china's population is still growing rapidly, it is reported that every year the population of this country increases by an extra 15 million and china is encountering a birth peak during the 90's of the 20th. it is obvious that china's economic development and the improvement of people's living standards have been and will be greatly affected by the population.

　　therefore, to control poputation growth more strictly is clearly essential to the country's reforms and economic development. we should restress the importance of birth control and call on the whole nation to take mure effective actions.
