下面是口语化些的表达,单词都是简单的。
On October 31st, 2011, the population of the world has reached 7 billion. (此处reach可用二楼的exceed代替,这个更好,但是书面化了)
Although I know that there are two babies born every second in the world, I am really eager to know how to figure out who is the 7 billionth baby.
One version shows that it is by the records investigated in hospitals in the world.
Another version shows that Little Danica, once hardly dumped as a dead baby, was regarded as the 7 billionth baby to ease the parents' anger.
In regard of the first version, no matter whether you believe it or not, I never believe it.
补充:其实第七十亿个是官方按人口增长速度推算出来的,仅供参考,不具备统计学意义。
希望能帮到你!
