Dear Editor,
I’m a middle school student. I’m writing to tell you 34 children who are living with their grandparents in towns around the country. Now, our cities are 35 more and more modern. That makes a lot of parents 36 their home towns to work on building the cities. But when they work in the cities, their children are waiting for them at home. One of the most serious 37 is the loneliness (孤独).These left-behind children are always 38 and stressed out because they lack (缺少) parents’ love. At the same time, nobody can teach them the 39 between right and wrong. So, it’s easier for these children to make 40 and even break the law (法律). It’s very important for us to pay more attention to these children 41 we want to build a harmonious society (和谐社会).
So how do we 42 this problem Most of the left-behind children say they miss their parents a lot, especially during holidays.

It is most difficult for parents to decide to have a second child. Someone says that a single child is likely to be a lonely child. There are no other children in the family for the child to talk or play with. An only child is not able to get along well with children of his age. Some parents regretted (后悔) making the decisions to have only one child.
But the number of parents choosing to have only one child is increasing in many parts of the world. In the US, for example, more than 14 percent of women between 18 and 34 plan to have just one child. The same can be seen in the UK. In Japan, the average number of children born per family had gone down to 1.42 by 1996.
For some single child parents, especially who are busy working every day, time and energy seem to be overwhelming. They don't have enough time and energy to share with more children. For other people, money is their first consideration (考虑). Many couples in Japan choose not to have large families because the cost of supporting a child up to the age of 18 reaches around US $ 160,000.
47．According to the passage, why is a single child likely to be lonely
A．Because his parents don't love him.
B．Because he doesn't have holidays.
C．Because he doesn't have a brother or a sister to talk or play with.
