In many African and Latin American countries the rate of population growth appears to be constant or even rising, but in Asia there are signs that the growth rate has peaked and is now declining. The different experiences may reflect differences in government policies: in 1980 a quarter of less developed countries had no official family planning programme. The success stories involve India, where in 1980, 23 per cent of married women used contraceptives and the birth rate fell from 4.4 to 3.6 per cent per annum between 1960 and 1980. The successful cases show what can be done, but private incentives and attitudes still favour large families in many poor societies; so, simply providing facilities for family planning may not be enough.
16. It is implied in the passage that, as regards population growth,
A. most less developed countries have adopted policies against family planning
B. family planning has not yet received adequate attention in the industrialized countries

17. In accordance with the passage, one reason why family planning in many less developed countries has failed, is that _____.
A. contraceptives have only been supplied to married women
B. the use of contraceptives puts a strain on the family budget
