Many children feel that most important people in their lives are their friends. They
believe that their family members don’t know them as well as their friends .in large families, it is

八、one possible version:
The Problems of the Large Population
It is reported that the world’s population was 6 billion in the year 2,000, and it is growing
faster and faster. The world’s population problem is the greatest one because it brings lots of
problems. For example, fresh water is becoming less and less; more and more people are losing
their jobs and so on. These problems are mainly in the developing countries because the
population of all the developing countries is over four fifths of the world’s population. So China,
the largest developing country, has kept the policy “one couple, one child”.
