Professor
So, we’ve been discussing the population control and the disadvantages brought about by overpopulation. As we know, at the beginning of last century there lived in the world 2 billion people. But...um...the number has sharply risen to 5...or...6 billion, and it is still increasing by the number of 900 million each year. If the world-population continues to increase, it has been predicted that the number of the population will have risen to 10 billion by the end of the year 2050. Such a great number of people have become a threat to both the balance of nature and... uh... the development of society. That is to say, if population growth is not controlled, human existence will be in great...great danger.
For example, well...the fast population growth brings heavy pressures to society and economy. It causes. ..causes a series of social problems in employment, education, social welfare and so on. Especially, it results in people’s loss of liberty. Specifically speaking, population increases very fast and more and more people ask for work. Then the labor force is much more than what is needed. The problem of unemployment gets sharp and troublesome. Workers have to listen to whatever the boss says without much freedom to express their opinions. And also, the large population makes education hard to improve. The low education level of people will do no good to people’s awareness of democracy. That’s why democracy has not fully developed in less developed countries.

These two students complain about the new regulation of Oklahoma State University. The new regulation requires all students to pay for the school bus. They are strongly against it. According to the listening material, there are two reasons for their disagreement. The first reason is that...um...one of the students thinks a quarter per time is too expensive. As he points out, he might have to spend a couple of hundred dollars each semester. Another reason is that, as the other student points out, it’s a waste of time. Since every time when they pay for the bus fare, they have to prepare quarters, take them out and give them to the drivers. And if they happen to take no quarter coins with them, they have to wait for the driver to give back them their change. So, it’s going to waste a lot of their time. Because of these two reasons, these two students disagree with this new regulation.
