Is a nation’s destiny set by its fertility rates? Japan has the world’s oldest【C1】______, but Japanese longevity can’t【C2】______for its extremely-low fertility rate—just 1.4 children per woman. One in four don’t have children. Some European countries also have low fertility rates, but top up【C3】______migrants. Japan does not.
The conventional view is that this is bad news: shrinking numbers【C4】______economic growth and the aging population is a major【C5】______burden. But there is another【C6】______The proportion of Japan’s population has almost twice as many over-65s as children.【C7】______Japan spends less on education. And because the Japanese are the world’s healthiest, care【C8】______are also lower than in other nations.
Japan’s economy has been growing slowly for two decades now. But【C9】______the falling population, individual income has been【C10】______strongly-outperforming most US citizens’.

The world recently reached "peak child" —the point【C17】______the number of children aged 0 to 14 around the globe【C18】______off. Global fertility rates have halved in 40 years—they are now below 2.5 children per woman—and global population may peak soon. Some believe that peak population is a【C19】______first step to reducing our【C20】______on the planet’s life-support systems. In that case, following Japan’s example may be just the ticket.
【C2】
选项
A、cater
B、stand
C、last
D、compensate
答案
D
解析
本段末提到欧洲国家的情况,跟日本进行对比。说到欧洲国家对生育率低的缺口进行“补充,填充”(top up),因此推断,空格处填入的词应跟top up近义,compensate for...意为“弥补、补偿”符合要求。
