Do you remember the Millennium (千禧年) Goals？ When world leaders celebrated the year 2000 with a serious promise to reduce poverty (贫穷) and hunger, check the spread of AIDS, getboys and girls into school, and improve public health, all by 2015？ Well, three years down the road, and the UNDPs yearly collection of facts and figures alreadyshows that if we carry on as we are, the only goal likely to be met is that for reducing poverty by ahalf, and that is entirely due to the success of one country-China. It is so vast that the fast-grow-ing economy in China lifts millions of people above the poverty line, even though in Africa, LatinAmerica and the former Soviet Union, people have actually been getting poorer. Otherwise, progress is good only in parts. East Asia should meet its goal of reducing hungerby a half by 2015, and Latin America and the Caribbean are not far behind, but at the present speedof progress, Africa and South Asia wont get there for another hundred years. The good news is that it can be done-there are success stories. Ghana-an economic basketcase in the eighties and early nineties-has managed to find a way out of its difficulties and its nowcomfortably in the middle range of countries, way ahead of the much more naturally wealthy Niger-ia. For Congo, Cambodia or Iraq, ruined by war, or every southern African country damaged by AIDS, there is a Mauritius or a South Korea steadily working its way up the league table towards abetter life for its people. 根据材料请回答下列各 Which of the millennium goals is likely to be met according to the text？

A.Improving public health.

B.Reducing poverty by a half.

C.Sending children to school.

D.Stopping the spread of AIDS.
