CNN News: 印度人口7年后世界第一 將超過(guò)14.4億

In terms of land area, which of these countries is largest?

世界上哪個(gè)國(guó)家的陸地面積最大?

Saudi Arabia, Mexico, India or Mongolia?

沙特阿拉伯、墨西哥、印度還是蒙古?

Covering more than 1.2 million square miles, India is the largest nation on this list. It`s ranked seventh largest in the world.

印度是世界上最大的國(guó)家，面積超過(guò)120萬(wàn)平方英里，世界陸地國(guó)土面積第七。

But in just seven years, India could be the most populated country on the planet. That`s according to the United Nations. It`s estimated to surpass China with 1.44 billion. Today, more than a third of the world`s population in those two countries alone.

根據(jù)聯(lián)合國(guó)報(bào)道，在未來(lái)七年，印度將成為世界上人口最多的國(guó)家。據(jù)估計(jì)，印度將以14.4億的人口超過(guò)中國(guó)。而現(xiàn)在，中國(guó)和日本就占據(jù)了世界上超過(guò)三分之一的人口。

They both struggle with overpopulation, though India has less than one third the land area that China does. India`s other challenges include widespread poverty and corruption. On the plus side, it has diverse and growing economy, almost half the people there work in agriculture, but expansion in software, business and information technology services have brought in money.

盡管印度的國(guó)土面積還不到中國(guó)的三分之一，但是印度同中國(guó)一樣面臨著人口過(guò)剩的問(wèn)題。而其有利的一面就是，印度經(jīng)濟(jì)不斷增長(zhǎng)，并呈現(xiàn)多元化，有將近一半的人口在從事農(nóng)業(yè)，但是軟件行業(yè)、商業(yè)和信息技術(shù)行業(yè)的擴(kuò)張也引來(lái)了資金。

So, if you look at snap chat at life across what`s known as the world`s largest democracy, you see a tale of two countries.

你如果在快拍上看到世界上民主的兩個(gè)國(guó)家的生活，那么它們就是印度和中國(guó)。
