浙江省金华市东阳市横店联考2024-2025学年九年级上学期10月月考英语试题
Most of us don't have to worry about our next meal because we know there is plenty of food available. But many people around the world are not that lucky. They live in hunger every day.
According to a UN report in 2019, about 113 million people around the world suffered from acute(急性的) hunger in 2018. The number of people suffering from hunger stayed above 100 million from 2016 to 2018.
Acute hunger is the most serious form of hunger— it refers to those who will die soon if they don't have food. Nearly two- thirds of people facing acute hunger come from just eight countries, including Ethiopia, Syria and Yemen, the report noted.
One reason for this is war. Some 74 million people, or over half the number of people facing acute hunger, are living in war- torn countries.
In addition, climate change and natural disasters(灾害) pushed another 29 million people into acute hunger in 2018, according to the report. This number includes people in southern Africa who faced droughts(干旱) that year.
UN World Food Program Executive Director David Beasley called for world leaders to" step up to the plate" in order to meet the UN's goal of being free from hunger. He called on them to solve the problems ▲.
China has worked hard to solve world hunger. The country is working together with the UN to help other countries deal with serious hunger problems.
a. war b. climate change c. natural disasters d. poor education
