Q

I think there’s too much poverty in our society. I live in a rich country, but there are still lots of people without food and without a home. We should help the most needy people because it’s easy to end up in poverty if you lose your job. Poverty can affect anyone.

A

Creo que hay demasiada pobreza en nuestra sociedad. Vivo en un país rico, pero todavía hay mucha gente sin comida y sin hogar. Deberíamos ayudar a los más necesitados porque es fácil acabar en la pobreza si pierdes tu trabajo. La pobreza puede afectar a cualquier persona.
