V. Read the following passage then. Choose the correct answer by circling its corresponding
letter A, B, C, or D.
Today the most important population trends are the fast growth in the number of elderly
people and the sharp drop in ther number of teenagers leaving school. The size of the elderly
population is growing because people are living longer and fewer babies have been born.
In 1911, only 5 per cent of the UK population was older than 65. Today, the figure is more
than 15 per cent. Over the next decade the greatest increase will be in people aged 75 and over.
The drop in the number of school-leavers was caused by the fall in the birth rate between 1964 and
1977. This trend is known as the "demographic time bomb" - because demographers knew that,
once the birth rate fell, there was no way to stop it having an explosive effect on the economy and
on society 16years later.However, the impact may well be short-term. According to some
forecasters the UK's birth rate may soon become one of the highest in western Europe.
