 A

 D

 B

 E

【解析】

 考查理解能力.根據(jù)上文,當(dāng)你讀這句話的時候，世界人口已經(jīng)增長了10人，可知選C，這聽起來也許不太多，但是每小時就大約14,000人。最符合邏輯關(guān)系。

 考查分析能力。根據(jù)上文，這些新生人口大多在發(fā)展中國家。可知下文選A，這些國家大多在非洲，南美洲和亞洲一部分。

 考查分析能力。上文介紹了美歐的人口增長慢的原因，結(jié)合下文介紹發(fā)展中國家的生存狀況。下文選D、但是在發(fā)展中國家許多婦女生育5個甚至更多孩子。最符合邏輯關(guān)系。

 考查分析能力。根據(jù)前文介紹超過一億人生活在貧困線以下，下文，許多孩子不能上學(xué)并受疾病困擾。可知選B——這些人沒有足夠的食物，生活在破舊的房子里。

 考查分析能力。根據(jù)前文許多專家擔(dān)心快速發(fā)展的人口會導(dǎo)致非常嚴(yán)重的結(jié)果。可知下文選E——這樣會傷害環(huán)境并增加貧困人口。

考點：考查句子之間的邏輯分析能力。
