But the first places where they will become dominant(統(tǒng)治的)are dense urban areas — precisely the spots most damaged by the automobile age.

A decade ago anyone hardly saw the Smartphone coming. It has bought an epidemic of mass addiction. Let’s hope we do a better job of handling the driverless car.

Recently I read the Human Development Report. I couldn’t help thinking about another problem which the world is facing--hunger. According to the report, 2,400 people are dying from hunger every day; nearly 13 million in southern Africa will be worried about their food supply because of earthquakes, floods or wars.

In a word, hunger remains the biggest problem of the world today. It’s strange to see that man can travel to the moon, but still doesn’t know how to feed himself. You may ask, “Who steals our bread? The first thieves should be population growth, poverty and loss of rich farmland.

In less developed areas like South Africa, the population grows faster than the crops. It is almost impossible for its government to feed so many people and provide education for them. So it is very important to control the population growth and protect their farmland in countries whose people are suffering from hunger.

According to the report, the world’s food production is enough to feed everyone if it is given away well. But the problem is that the developed countries are eating food that should be given to the poor. Although they are just using their own earning, the fact is that they are coldly watching others starving away.

Luckily, some developed countries such as Netherlands, Norway and Sweden have done a lot to help those hungry people in African countries. We hope other developed countries will follow them.

1.According to the passage, which of the following CANNOT help to make fewer people hungry?

A. Poor countries protect their rich farmland.

B. Poor countries control their population growth.

C. Rich countries give some food to the poor ones.

D. Rich countries produce more food to feed themselves.

2.What can we learn from the fourth paragraph?

A. Poor countries are cold and going to die out.

B. Rich countries aren’t willing to help poor countries.

C. Rich countries notice the problems of the poor countries

D. Rich countries are trying their best to help poor countries.

3.Why are many people suffering from hunger in developing countries?

A. Because there are so many people.

B. Because there are so many developed countries.

C. Because there are so many natural disasters and wars.

D. Because there isn’t enough food production in the world.

4.What does the author mean in the last sentence?.

A. More countries will give help to Norway.

B. More countries will be as rich as Sweden.

C. Poor countries should learn from rich ones.

D. More rich countries will help the hungry people.
