October 16is World Food Day.The UN started the day in 1979.Itis used to remind people not to waste food and fight hunger(饥饿).
Food shortage(匮乏)is a big problem around the world.Right now,there are more than 1billion(10亿)hungry people in the world.Many children go to sleep with hunger, and 15million of them die because of hunger each year.
