Population

1. How many children did your grandparents have? What about your parents? How many
children do you (want to) have?

There are 2 children in my father’s family and 2 children in my mother’s family. I am the only one grandchild of these two families.

Actually, I never think about the question that how many children I want to have. Because I am still young~~ lol~~~lalalalalalala

2. What is the population of your country? What impact does the population have on the
quality of life there?

The population in China now is over 1.3 billion. It brings many problems such as education, resource consumption, traffic jam, even the housing problem.

3. Has there been a significant population shift in your country from rural areas to urban
areas? If yes, what are the consequences?

There are more and more people who come from rural areas go to big cities for good education and better job opportunities every year. This situation lead to many problems. Lake of labour force is the most severe problem that faced by the people live in rural. As well, it also causes a lot of problems in big cities. People in big cities now are more difficult to find job than before. Children are not easy to have a seat at school, even at kindergarten. Traffic jam is an eternal topic in big cities...
