*前文內容為目前出現的問題與衝突：生育率低下，勞動力低下，而之前鼓勵生育的政策不起效。因此政府採取了新的措施-本部分分析以申先生一家為例子。
The Economist 2020.10.17 Asia
South Korea wants mothers to work, to bolster the labor force
That might even make women more willing to have babies, which will also help
韓國：鼓勵媽媽們工作，以提高勞動力
但這甚至會讓女性更願意生小孩，也不失為提高勞動力的一種幫助
回歸例子：申先生所在的城市如何體現政府
努力方向轉變的效果
Sejong, where Mr. Shin lives with his family, is a good place to observe the impact of those changes on families. It is a newly built administrative city south of Seoul, the capital, and it will probably struggle to achieve the government’s population target of half a million inhabitantsby the middle of the decade. But it is popular with young families and couples planning to start one. At 37 the average Sejongite is nearly six years younger than the average Korean. Children make up nearly a quarter of the population, compared with 15% on the national level*. The city consistently records the highest fertility rate in the country. Last year the average woman in Sejong could expect to have 1.5 children over her lifetime, fully double the rate in Seoul, though still below the average for rich countries (see chart).
make up: 「組成；佔據；編造」注意該短語 make「製作」--up 「又散到整」的邏輯
on the national level：狀語-在翻譯的時候翻譯為「全國的...」 注意狀語成分在翻譯的時候的應用。
Sejong is indeed child-friendly.The city center is compact and provides little razzle-dazzle but plenty of green spaces, walking paths, and nipper-nurturing infrastructure (half the coffee shop where Mr. Shin and his family chose to be interviewed is taken up by an enormous sandbox). The government is pouring money into childcare and family support, and regularly asks parents what they want the city to do for them. It helps that many locals work in the civil service, which has to offer flexible working hours like those enjoyed by Mr. Shin, encouraging a more equal distribution of labor at home. 「It’s extremely boring to live here if you don’t have kids, but for us it’s perfect,」 says Park Hye-Kyung, Mr. Shin’s wife. Though many of her female friends are stuck at home with children, waiting up past midnight for husbands compelled to stay at the office, she says that lots of fathers want to be more involved—and more employers are letting them.
, encouraging ... 這裡encouraging，現在分詞表示前句子造成的結果--除了可以表示「鼓勵」，但也可以表示造成的正向結果。
通過鼓勵男性休陪產假，讓女性保持勞動力
共同承擔育兒任務
Even beyond Sejong, the number of men who choose to be involved in childcare is inching upwards. In 2009 a mere 500 men outside the civil service took any paternity leave at all. In 2017 about 12,000 did. By last year the figure had reached 22,000—still barely a quarter of the 80,000 or so women who take maternity leave each year. The increase seems to be the result in part of thegovernment’s belated realization that women do not tend to have children on their own. 「Making men participate in childcare is important to allow women both to have children and to stay in the labor force,」 says Kim Seung-tae, who runs the population policy division at the finance ministry. Consequently*, the government has made it possible for parents to* share what used to be maternity leave.
