•Get out your notes from yesterday.
Life Expectancy, Literacy Rate, and Standard of Living
What is Life Expectancy?• The average length of a person’s life in a
certain place.
Looks like a long life!!
Looks like a shorter life!!
Why is it important to know a country’s Life Expectancy?
Countries with…
Low Life Expectancy High Life Expectancy
High Education
Might have a few wars (not always the case)
Low Infant (baby) mortality
low cases of illnesses like AIDS.
Good health care system (good hospitals)
Low Education
Might be in a war
High Infant (baby) mortality
High cases of illnesses like AIDS.
Bad health care system (bad hospitals)
Life Expectancy Around the World
• Where is the highest life expectancy?• Where is the lowest life expectancy?
What is Literacy Rate?
• The percentage of people who can read and write in a certain place.
• Literate- Ability to read and write• Illiterate-Inability to read and write
What limitations are placed on people who cannot read or write?

Why is it important to know a country’s literacy rate?
High Literacy Rate Low Literacy Rate
Country is Wealthy
Country has a high Standard of Living (economically how good life is in a country)
Good Health Care
Good Education
Low Infant Mortality (Babies Dying at birth)
Country is NOT Wealthy
Country has a low Standard of Living (economically how good life is in a country)
Bad Health Care
Bad Education
High Infant Mortality (Babies Dying at birth)
Literacy Rates Around the World
•Where is the highest literacy rates?•Where is the lowest literacy rates?

likely the literacy rates will be __________.2. If life expectancy is high in a country, then the
infant mortality rate will be ________ and the standard of living will be _________.

This is only a majority language
that is spoken.
Europeans usually learn how to speak
more than one language.
