Despite China’s impressive economic achievements, the country’s elderly women suffer disproportionate poverty rates, the incidence of female suicide is rising, and the skewed gender balance among newborns will have severe future demographic consequences, according to a United Nations re port.
The development picture for women is also mixed. Gender gaps are widening, and the aging of Chinese society is posing an increasing challenge because the elderly are disproportionately poor and female, with widows and unmarried, childless women among the most economically vulnerable.
The widely noted increase in the margin of newborn boys over girls "has serious implications for the future," the report warns. Sexual predetermination of newborns is illegal in China, but wide spread and the government estimates that the sex ratio is about 116 boys for every 100 girls.
"The shortage of women will have enormous implications on China’s social, economic and development future. In the next decade, we could have as many as 60 million missing women. People are exercising their preferences, but the consequences for society are huge."
These challenges are by no means unique to China and countries must work together to resolve them.
选项
答案
虽然中国经济取得了重大成效,但其国内老龄女性遭受着极不相称的贫穷,妇女自杀的案例在上升,据联合国的一项报告,新生儿性别平衡的倾斜将会加剧人口统计结果。 妇女发展也是喜忧参半。性别差距在扩大,而中国社会的人口老龄化更增加了挑战性,因为女性老龄人口出奇地贫穷,其中,丧夫、未婚和无女子的女性经济上最为脆弱。 报告警戒说新生儿中男孩远远超过女孩的这一现象对未来发展会产生严重影响。在中国,预测胎儿性别是不合法的,但这一现象却很普遍,中国政府估测,其男女比率是116: 100。 “女性人口的缺乏对中国社会、经济以及发展前景有着重大影响。在接下来的10年中,世界可能会短缺6千万女性。人们有所偏好,但这一偏好给社会的带来的后果是很巨大的。” 这些挑战决不仅仅存在于中国,世界各国必须共同努力以解决它们。
