Correct or improve the translation of the following Chinese sentences.原文：江苏的面积比新疆小，人口却比新疆多。 译文：Jiangsu’s size is smaller than that of Xinjiang, but its population is bigger than that of Xinjiang.
【正确答案】：

JIANGSU’S SIZE IS SMALLER THAN THAT OF XINJIANG, WHILE ITS POPULATION IS LARGER THAN THAT OF XINJIANG.

【题目解析】：本题主要考查形容人口大的词汇，并考查while和but的区别。large——大的；大量的（常指面积，范围，可表示数和量），此处形容人口总数population常用large。while比but的转折更为婉转, 强调江苏和新疆的对比性。
