Humanity today: how many we are, how long we live, how poor and how rich, sentence 0
If the whole world were a class of 100 children, about 18 would be from India, about 17 from China, about 10 would be very poor, about 8 would not get enough food, and 3 or 4 would live in a country they were not born in; numbers like these turn «the world» into people you could meet.
Who acts: whole world, 10, 8, 3, country, numbers · What happens: be, not get, live, not bear in, turn, meet · To what, where: class, India, enough food, country, children, world
