　　范文：

　　China has decided to end its decades-long one-child policy. All couples are allowed to have two children. This decision has aroused much chatter—whether it is high time that China should carry out the universal two-child policy or not. As far as I am concerned, this policy is in line with China’s domestic situations.

　　Speaking from a macro perspective, this policy is a timely adjustment to China’s changing situations. The aging population has been posing a threat to the sustainable and healthy development of China. This policy will optimize the demographic structure, increase the labor force, ease the pressure of aging population and ensure the sustainable and healthy development of the economy and society.

　　Speaking from a micro one, as the odds of having a weak elderly parent and all the attendant need for physical and financial assistance have jumped many times in just one generation, this policy will bring about many benefits to the family in the long run. In spite of the fact that child rearing is anything less than an easy task, the disadvantages, such as temporarily economic burden, seem to be pale compared with the benefits. The second child, at least, will accompany his or her sibling and in the future, they will share the responsibility to support and care for their old parents.

　　【參考譯文】

　　中國政府決定終止實行長達數(shù)十年以來的計劃生育政策。所有的夫婦都被允許生育二胎。這項政策一出臺就引起了多方熱議----中國真的到了全面放開二胎政策的時候了嗎?我個人認為，這項政策符合中國國情。

　　從宏觀的角度來講，全面放開二胎政策是對不斷變化著的中國國情做出的調(diào)整。人口老齡化已經(jīng)對中國的健康可持續(xù)發(fā)展造成了威脅。全面放開二胎政策將會優(yōu)化人口結(jié)構(gòu)，增加勞動力，減輕人口老齡化帶來的壓力并確保經(jīng)濟和社會的可持續(xù)和健康發(fā)展。

　　從微觀的角度來講，隨著父母一方出現(xiàn)身體虛弱狀況的概率----在他(或她)身上需要體力和經(jīng)濟的支持----是上一代人的許多倍，全面放開二胎政策，從長遠角度來看，將會給家庭帶來諸多裨益。雖然養(yǎng)育孩子絕不是一件輕松的事情，但是多養(yǎng)育一個孩子所帶來的弊端，比如，經(jīng)濟上暫時的拮據(jù)，是無法與其帶來的益處相比較的。第二胎出生的孩子，至少會讓他(或她)的哥哥或者姐姐感到不那么孤單;并且將來他們可以共同贍養(yǎng)他們年邁的父母。
