40、oom, one dining-room, a kitchen, and a bathroom, the couple will pay about $900 a month. Whats more, if they want to have a child, the childs education is very expensive.

41、ber of married women who want to continue working because they enjoy their jobs. However, if they want to have children, they immediately have serious problems.

47、o have a baby.D篇Imagine, one day, getting out of bed in Beijing and being at your office in Shanghai in only a couple of hours, and then, after a full day of work, going back home to Beijing and having dinner thereSounds unusual, doesnt it? But its not that unrealistic, with the development of China

48、s high-speed railway system.

49、don and SingaporeChina has proposed three such projects.The first would possibly connect Kuming with Singapore via Vietnam and Malaysia.Another could start in Urumqi and go through Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and possibly to Germany.The third would start in the northeast and go north through Russia a

55、trains，people will set up factories and business centers in the west once and for all. And theyll trade with Central Asian and Eastern European countries16.
