Beggar

Look at this picture, there is a woman and a child. The child lies on the ground and the woman sit on the ground beside the child. There is a bowl in front of them and there are some coins inside the bowl. Their clothes are very poor and the child look like he is sick. Maybe the woman doesn't have enough money to see the doctor, so she looks hopeless. They are beggars.

China is a developing country and there are 1.4 billion people. The government does not have enough power to produce enough food for all of the people. There are so many people who don't have enough food to eat in the suburbs. Some of them starve to death in the suburbs. Some of other people move into big cities, but they still don't have money to buy food. Therefore, they become beggars. I saw a lot of beggars in China. Some of them looked like they need help, they may lost a leg or a arm or have a burn on their body. The beggar's life is very poor. They usually stay and sleep beside the bus station or under the bridge because they don't have homes. Some cities have a place for these people and give them some food and money, but they still don't want to stay there. They think they can get more money, if they go begging outside. Therefore, thy go out during the daytime and go back to shelter at night.

I know the government has tried its best, but I think it's still not enough. The government needs to find a new strategy to solve these poverty problems. Even though China has so many people, the Chinese government still has to develop the economy and improve people's lives. I hope the number of beggar can decrease in the future and poverty will go away.
