3.Why you think these changes have happened?
The number of school-age children attending school increased between 1985 and 2002. In 1985, more than 95 percent of school-age children attended school, while in 2002 more than 99 percent of school-age children attended school, rising by nearly 4 percent. I think, it is with the help of the government that more and more school-age children have the chance of attending school. According to the graph and the present situation as well, it is hoped that all the school-age children will go to school in 2010. I would like to put the bar for 2010 as high as 100%.
