4．　　According to a research more than 130 billion pounds of on uneaten food go to waste in Laura's country each year . That is about 30% of the yearly food supply (供应). It is a sad fact, especially when you consider how many families and homeless people are in hunger.
　　When Laura saw her school dining hall throw away food that was not eaten at all every day, she came up with an idea. She started a project to help her school dining hall to give away on uneaten food to homeless shelters (庇护所) in her community. In the past three years, and has already fed thousands of people in her city.
　　How does it work?Through an app, Feed & Find matches local homeless shelters with school dining halls and restaurants that have uneaten food to provide. When dining halls or restaurants have uneaten food left, they can use the app to share the Information about the food. A truck driver working for the project is then sent to pick it up and take it to a shelter.
　　Pretty cool, right?It's not surprising that people in other cities have got in touch with Laura, hoping that she could have develop similar projects for their communities.
　　Some people, however, have concerns about the safety of the uneaten food. They think such food may not be clean enough. Still, this project is a clever way to help solve the problem of food waste and it helps those in need.

They posted a list of daily happenings at public squares in the cities. Ancient Chinese people did it in another way. The government had news sheets sent to officials in the whole country so people could know what was going on in the capital.

In the sixteenth century, the first real newspaper appeared. People started to form the habit of reading newspapers. They liked to share their opinions on newspapers. The invention of telegraph (电报) machines led to another big step in history. News stories were sent to the papers in minutes instead of weeks.
