（单词翻译）

 　　JUDY WOODRUFF: After decades of global condemnation1 over the practices, China today announced the easing ofone controversial government policy and the abolishment of another.

　　Jeffrey Brown explains.
　　JEFFREY BROWN: The announcement heralded2 the biggest change in China's one-child policy in three decades. Millions more couples will be allowed to have two children, provided at least one parent was an only child.
　　The existing policy, enforced by mandatory3 abortions4 and sterilization5, was deeply unpopular. And so was the system of forced labor6 camps that Communist Party leaders announced they're abolishing. That system, established in 1957, allows police to imprison7 people for up to four years without formal arrest or trial.
　　The reforms came out of a four-day meeting of top communist officials, led by President Xi Jinping, who took office earlier this year. Xi consolidated8 his power at the gathering9 with the formation of a national security committee to oversee10 the party, government and military. The party meeting also agreed to let the private market play a more important role in the world's second-largest economy.
