The statistics in the passage tell us that............... .

There has been remarkable improvement in the health
and well-being of most of China's people since the civil
war. Life expectancy at birth has more than doubled in a
little over four decades, rising from an estimated 35
years in 1949 to more than 71 years in 1992. In the same
period, the annual death rate declined from 23 per 1,000
people to about six per 1,000. Two major factors help to
account for this progress. First, there has been a steady
general improvement in the diet of the average citizen,
resulting from larger and more reliable crop production.
The old problem of famine has largely disappeared,
though poor harvests may still result in serious
malnutrition. The second factor is the great improvement
in the nature and quality of health care.
