【结构分析】本句主干是Even China’s population will be declining by the early 2030s, according to the UN,其后的which引导的定语从句which projects that by 2050 populations will be lower than they are today in 50 countries修饰先行词UN,关系代词在从句中作主语,注意这里project是动词,充当谓语,译为“指出”,后面的that引导宾语从句。
【参考译文】联合国有关报告指出,即便是中国,到2030年初期人口也将开始下降。这份报告还指出,到2050年,将有50个国家的人口低于今天的水平。
