The United Nations says forty million people or so around the world went hungry in 2008, mainly because of higher food prices. Early estimates from the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) show that 963 million people did not get enough to eat.

World food prices have dropped since early 2008. Prices of major crops have decreased by more than half from their height earlier last year. But they remain high compared to earlier years.

But FAO official Hafez Ghanem says lower prices have failed to end the food crisis (危机) in many poor countries. “For millions in developing countries,” he says, “getting enough food every day to live an active and healthy life is a distant dream. ”

The FAO says food shortage is a threat to people's health. Today, two-thirds of the world's undernourished people live in just a few countries. These are India, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Pakistan, Ethiopia and so on.

A report on food insecurity warns that the current economic crisis could send even more people into hunger and poverty.

In sub-Saharan Africa, the percentage of the people who continually go hungry fell from 34% in 1997 to 30% in 2008. But the FAO says Ghana is the only country that has reached two sets of hunger reduction targets. These were set by the 1996 World Food Summit and the Millennium Development Goals. The main reason is the growth in agricultural production in Ghana.

The FAO says some countries in Southeast Asia like Thailand and Vietnam have made progress in hunger reduction goals. But South Asia and Central Asia haven't, and North Korea is still in hot water.

1.What FAO official Hafez Ghanem says implies（暗示）__________

A. it's easy but takes long to provide people with enough food

B. enough food can make people more active and healthier

C. there is difficulty solving the food shortage in a short time

D. people in developing countries will never get enough food

2.The underlined word "undernourished" in Para. 4 probably means ________.

A. hungry and unhappy                    B. unhealthy for lack of food

C. not fat because of poverty                  D. undeveloped and poor

3.What is the best title of this passage?

A. The food production of the world

B. The hunger reduction target of the FAO

C. The food shortage around the world

D. The solution to the global food shortage

The World Happiness Report, a United Nations agency report, measures (估量) how happy people are, and why. Norway is the happiest place on earth—beating neighbour Denmark from the number one position.

Denmark, Iceland, Switzerland and Finland are among the top five, while the Central African Republic came last. Western Europe and North America took up most of the places at the top of table, with the US and UK at 14th and 19th respectively.

The World Happiness Report mainly depends on asking a simple question of more than 1,000 people every year in more than 150 countries. “Imagine a ladder, with steps numbered from 0 at the bottom to 10 at the top,” the question asks. “The top of the ladder is the best possible life for you and the bottom of the ladder is the worst possible life for you. On which step of the ladder would you say you personally feel you stand at this time?”

The average (平均的) result is the country’s score—from Norway’s 7.54 to the central African Republic’s 2.69. But the report also tries to explain why one country is happier than another. It looks at reasons including economic strength, social support, freedom of choice, and generosity.

This year’s report also has a text titled “restoring (恢复) American happiness”, which examines why happiness levels in the United States are falling, despite continually-increasing economic improvement. “The United States can and should raise happiness by solving American’s social problems—rising inequality and distrust—rather than focusing mainly on economic growth,” the authors said.

Jeffrey Sachs, the director of the Sustainable Development Solutions Network, which published the report, said President Donald Trump’s policies were likely to make things worse.

1.Which of the following are the top five happiest countries?

A. The US, Denmark, Iceland, Switzerland and Finland.

B. The UK, Denmark, Iceland, Switzerland and Finland.

C. South Africa, Denmark, Iceland, Switzerland and Finland.

D. Norway, Denmark, Iceland, Switzerland and Finland.

2.How does the World Happiness Report mainly measure happiness?

A. By asking a question.

B. By having a conversation.

C. By doing scientific research.

D. By carrying out an online survey.

3.What problem is the US faced with?

A. Its people live an unhappy life.

B. Its economy is going downhill.

C. Its social problems can’t be solved.

D. It has a lower happiness level than before.

4.What’s Jeffrey Sachs’ attitude toward Donald Trump’s policies?

A. Supportive. B. Unfavorable.

C. Respectful. D. Uncaring.
