the average height of children in China has exceeded the standard of no ticket standard: the national standard
Central Guangzhou network, Beijing May 8th news, according to the voice of China "news vertical and horizontal", for example, many parents are in the park, the railway station and so on. When buying a ticket in public places, you will find that your child is obviously very young, but his height has exceeded the free ticket standard. When buying tickets for the first time, parents often tell their children that this is a memorable occasion: you have to buy a ticket when you grow up. But because the free ticket standard is low, children enjoy free time is too short, many parents feel unreasonable, after all, fast growing is not a child's fault.
, does the current free ticket standard match the average height of children in China? Why can't the free ticket standard be based on age?
the children of Ms. Cao in Hefei, Anhui, were just nine years old, arguably that they could use children's tickets, but the height had gone to 1.5 meters, and the children of his colleagues were 11 years old but only 1.3 meters high, and two children were often treated differently because of the ticket problem.
Ms. Cao told reporters: we go to a water world in Hefei, at that time the requirement is 1 meters 2 to 1 meters 4, two families to play, they are free of ticket when our family on the half of the ticket, their home half of the ticket, we have all the tickets, I said,.Amp; lsquo we are also children.Amp; R Squo.
the parents who have a similar trouble with Ms. Cao are not in the minority. The standard of children's free tickets in most public places in China is between 1.2 meters to 1.3 meters, and the standard of half price tickets is between 1.3 meters to 1.5 meters, but the average height of children in our country has already reached or even exceeded the improvement of the nutritional status and the growth environment. These standards. The latest data from CDC shows that from 1992 to 2002, the average height of six year old urban male children in the country increased by 4.9 centimeters, and by 2012 it increased by 3.7 centimeters, reaching 1.2 meters. The average height of 12 year olds had exceeded 1.5 meters, and the average height of 14 year old children had reached or close to about 1.6 meters.
Citizen 1: for these children, this standard is certainly not fair and tall, not that he said he should grow so tall.
citizen 2: as parents, we hope that he can grow fast. However, in life, such unreasonable fees are often encountered.
in a variety of industry involving children's tickets, the public reflects the most centralized traffic department. China's railway stipulates that each passenger can carry a child under 1.2 meters free of charge and a half price ticket for children with 1 2 meters to 1.5 meters, and children above 1.5 meters will have to buy full price tickets. The majority of the city's subway bus provides that children are not allowed to ride 1.3 meters below height.
