hunger has been troubling the world in 2016 the number of hungry people in the world reached one billion for the first time it s difficult not to be shocked by the fact that more than one in seven people in the world do not have enough to eat the un figures that almost two thirds of the world s hungry people are in asia which is of course the world s most populous continent more than a quarter are in sub saharan africa although this place has a much lower population than asia it has the highest percentage of hungry people almost all of the rest are in latin america north africa and the caribbean there are many reasons for world hunger they include wars droughts floods and the overuse of farmland all these factors affect food production many people also blame greedy businessmen for pushing up the prices of basic foods in the global market in fact many people are starving just because they re poor therefore the most important reason quite simply is poverty if we can t pull out this root we ll never be able to solve food shortage although many people make the obvious point that there would be less hunger if the global population were smaller few people would argue that there is not enough food to go around the basic problem seems to be not a lack of food but its distribution in the last 50 years global food production has risen even more quickly than the global population there are many areas of the world in which people generally have more than enough food in those places being overweight is a far bigger problem than 11 hunger the answer to world hunger therefore may

help the hungry people a a 解析 文章结构题 根据最后一段中的 in those places being overweight is a far bigger problem than hunger the answer to world hunger therefore may be a balanced food distribution around the
