PART B_2
Poverty is a situation where people experience difficulties in meeting their basic needs. For example, we call it poverty when someone does not have enough money to afford food, water, and education. Lack of access to education is the biggest problem caused by poverty. Those who do not have any education find it difficult to get a good job. Parents often ask their children to help them earn money. This is one of the reasons why they could not go to school. Lack of education causes a chain of poverty.
There are over 781 million people who cannot read and write in the world. There are also 59 million children who do not go to school. One research said that if mothers can read words properly, the death rate of children would decrease. Education is important not only to get a job but also to protect one’s family from poverty.
