In the past 70 years, China's total population has increased to nearly 1.4 billion in 2018 from 540 million in 1949, bracing for remarkable demographic shifts toward a healthier and more educated population.
新中国成立70年来，我国人口发展经历了巨大变迁，总人口由1949年的5.4亿人发展到2018年的近14亿人，国民健康水平和受教育水平提升。
Suffering from a scarcity of food and underdeveloped healthcare, the average life expectancy of Chinese people was merely 35 years in 1949.
新中国成立之初，由于食物短缺，医疗卫生水平低下，国人平均预期寿命仅为35岁。
However, with full basic medical coverage and significant breakthroughs in the treatment of critical illnesses achieved, the life span of Chinese people has more than doubled to 77 years in 2018.

70年来，国民受教育水平实现量的飞跃。70年前，我国文盲率达到80%，小学入学率不足20%，如今，几乎每三人中就有一人拥有高中以上学历。
The average schooling years of working-age people rose to 10.63 years in 2018 from just over eight years in 1982.
劳动年龄人口的平均受教育年限由1982年的刚刚超过8年提高到2018年的10.63年。
