StepⅠLead-in
In pairs, discuss what you can see in the photos and how you think each photo relates to world hunger.(P54)
Suggested answers:
1.The first photo 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 it is drought,crops cannot grow and animals may die.
2.The second photo represents the idea of war.Hunger often comes with wars,as often people can’t farm,or they cannot earn money to buy food.And,even if they had money to buy food,the markets might be empty or closed.
3.The third photo represents famine.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 cannot grow and there is not enough food for everyone to eat.While famine can be caused by drought,some of the world 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 cold for the crops to grow properly.

StepⅣ World Food Day activities

In my eyes...
In my opinion,...

The advantages are...
I have a feeling that...
It’s a pity that...

My impression is that..
I think/guess/believe...
From my point of view,...
My view/opinion/belief is that...
Suggested answer:
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,and 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.
C:What is that?
B:Well,everyone buys tickets to eat a dinner,and the price of the ticket 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?
StepⅤ Homework
1.To surf the Internet for further information about World Food Day.
2.Write a speech to call on more people to safe food.
