To be able to analyze and judge the causes of the world hunger problem, and propose solutions. 3.

Explore the world hunger problem Lead-in Here is a short video for us to explore the present situation of world hunger problem. My lifelong pursuit is to keep all the people away from hunger. In pairs, discuss what you can see in the photos and how you think each photo relates to world hunger. Pre-listening draughts poverty Reduce grain production … wars Reduce people to work on land Destroy economy… No money to buy food … It represents the idea of war. Hunger often comes with war, as often people cannot farm, or they cannot work to earn money to buy food. And, even if they had money to buy food, the markets might be empty or closed. It represents the idea of drought. Either a river or a lake bed has been exposed by receding waters, leaving behind cracked soil. A child is pouring water onto the ground. When there is drought, crops cannot grow and animals may die. The child in the photo is a victim of famine, which is why his/her arm and hand are so thin. Famine is when the crops do not grow and there is not enough food for everyone to eat. While famine can be caused by drought, some of the worst famines in world history had other sources, such as insects or diseases that destroyed the crops, or weather that was either too hot or too cool for the crops to grow properly.
