Activity1:Look &Discuss
What can you see in the photos?
How do you think each photo relates to world hunger?
Drought
Either a river or a lake bed has been exposed by receding waters, leaving behind cracked soil.
When there is drought, crops cannot grow and animals may die.
War
Hunger often comes with war, as often people cannot farm, or they cannot work to earn money to buy food.
Famine
The child in the photo, whose arm and hand are so thin, is a victim of famine.
Famine is when the crops do not grow and there is not enough food for everyone to eat.

Listening strategies
Identify Supporting Evidence
When people present important facts, they usually give some evidence to support their claims. The evidence is usually mentioned at the start of a sentence. Listen out for key words like report, research, studies, figures, findings, etc.
Activity4: Listen again and identify how the speaker supports his facts. Match the supporting evidence with the facts.
1 According to our latest figures, ...
2 There is strong evidence to suggest that ...
3 Our research indicates that ...
A wars can heavily affect food production and transportation.
B (world hunger) stands at around 11% of the world's population.
C many people just can't afford to eat well.
A: So what shall we do for World Food Day?
B: In my opinion, a poster contest would be a perfect way to celebrate it.
C: That’s OK, I guess, but my impression is that everyone is tired of making posters.
A: It’s a pity, but I think you’re right. We already have posters all over campus, and so the message might get lost. We need to make a stronger impact.
C: In my eyes, we should have a school debate on how best to solve the problem of world hunger.
B: The advantages are that it would help get people involved and interested.
A: But I think the problem with a debate is that it doesn’t really hit home. People will learn more about world hunger, that’s true. I have a feeling that very few people will actually be motivated to do anything about world hunger through a debate.
B: My view is that we should have a World Food Day Sunday Dinner.
Sample Dialogue
C: What is that?
B: Well, everyone buys tickets to eat a dinner, and the price of the tickets is the same. But when they buy the tickets they have to draw their tickets at random. Some people get tickets to eat like a poor person — just a small bowl of rice. Others get tickets to eat like an average person — noodles with meat, perhaps. Finally, others get tickets to eat like a king — roast duck and all sorts of sweets.
C: Without doubt, that is the craziest thing I’ve ever heard.
B: No, no. I don’t think it’s crazy at all.
A: What’s the purpose of such a meal?
B: In real life, how well a person eats is really just a matter of luck. If you are born in a wealthy country, you probably eat well and might even be fat! But if you are born in a poor country, you might just starve!
A: I believe that you might be onto something. But who’s going to cook the food?
Sample Dialogue
Activity5: Work in pairs and discuss.

Sample:
With the World Food Day approaching, I have a feeling that it is time that we attach great importance to world hunger problem. It’s a pity that millions of people are still suffering from hunger today.
My belief is that we should leave no one behind. As individuals, we should buy food that supports the environment and save water in our life. We should never waste food because very single grain is the result of hard work.
