Answer 2

Answer:

During Mao Zedong’s regime, urban income and life expectancy increased. As a result, there was an increase in China’s population. To overcome this problem, China established the one-child policy in 1979.  

Explanation:

The one-child policy was a policy implemented by the Government of the People's Republic of China to reduce population growth (resulting from the increase in urban income during Mao Zedong's rule) and thereby facilitate the country's population access to a quality health and education system. Launched by the Chinese government in the late 1970s, it consisted of a law according to which it is forbidden for any couple to have more than one child. Couples who have more than one child were punished with severe fines.
