Most new people were born in developing countries. These countries are found in much of Africa,South America and some parts of Asia. In the developed countries of Europe and North America,the population is growing slowly. This is because women in the countries have,on average (平均),only one or two children. In the developing countries, many women have five or more children. In 1950,around one quarter of the world's population lived in the developed countries. By 2050, these countries will be home to only around one tenth of the world's people.
In the developing counties more than one billion people are still living below the poverty(贫困) line. These people do not have enough food to eat and they live in poor houses. Children get little time at school and people suffer(遭受痛苦) from many kinds of diseases.
At the beginning of the 21st century,the world's population was around six billion. The UN(联合国)has said that the world's population will continue to grow,reaching 14 billion before it becomes stable(稳定的),or even falls.

In order to protect environment, it is very important to learn about the environment. There are many ways to understand how to protect the environment, such as reading books, asking someone and so on. You are students. In your spare time, you can read as many as books. Books in the library are worth reading. They will help you learn. Ask your classmates or librarians for some suggestions. They have good ideas. You can also get information about the environment on some good websites. Besides these, I have some suggestions.
In our everyday life, some people use less energy by carpooling. For example, three or four persons can ride together in one car instead of driving three or four cars to work. Usually it is time-saving and convenient to carpool with their neighbors to take their children to school. Whenever we use electricity, we should turn off lights, the TV, the computer and so on when we don’t use them. On the other hand, we should use energy-saving products. Some products, like environment-friendly new energy cars, are made specially to save energy. These cars can travel longer than ordinary cars. They produce less pollution, too. Some products like computers and TVs with the ENERGY STAR label （标签） ® are made to save energy. The products with these labels will help us protect the environment.
Secondly, we should buy recyclable products instead of non-recyclable ones. Recyclable products usually take less energy. When we go shopping, pay attention to the recycle mark on the package: make a circle and three arrows.

In public places, people often use body language to express their meanings. Waving and bowing are examples of body language. Different kinds of body languages show different cultures in different countries. In China waving means greeting, but in Japan bowing is used. Sometimes this kind of body language is polite in one country, but it is not polite in another. We should pay attention to using it. In China, nodding your head shows you agree with someone, but in India, shaking your head from side to side shows agreement. In China, people hold hands as a sign of friendship, but people seldom hold hands in North America. It is worth(值得) noting that different meanings of body language can also cause problems in understanding. Some people do not understand how to use thumb(拇指) correctly. Most people often show one thumb to praise someone or something. You can't raise your thumb when someone is in danger. In a basketball match, if the judge shows two thumbs, it means two players break the rules.
