年轻人谈论贫困
A report has shown what young people in the UK think about poverty. Poverty causes bad results to millions of people in the UK and it is being made worse by problems like the rising cost of food and energy.
If someone is in poverty, he probably can’t pay for essential（必不可少的）things such as food and shelter
What is the report? The report was created by the Trussell Trust. One thousand young people in the UK were asked about poverty. Almost 90% of those questioned said they were worried about the number of people experiencing poverty in the UK. Over half (51%) thought income（收入）being too low was a main reason for poverty. Only 11% thought not having useful skills for work was a main reason. A bed and three meals a day were the most popular choices when it came to what young people thought others needed in order to live comfortably.

解析
【分析】
这是一篇英语阅读类题型，解题思路如下：
1. 第1题代词指代题：先定位划线it所在的第一段语句，往前查找语境中提到的、会被食品能源涨价加剧负面影响的核心事物，即可确定指代对象。
2. 第2题句子还原题：先理解待还原句子"so they don't go hungry"的逻辑含义，对比A、B、C、D四处空缺前后的内容匹配度，找到能承接前文动作、逻辑通顺的位置即可。
3. 第3题细节计算题：定位到受访总人数为1000人，结合担忧贫困群体的占比90%，简单计算就能得出对应人数。
4. 第4题细节提取题：直接定位原文提到11%受访群体观点的语句，提取对应内容即可。
5. 第5题补全段落题：阅读空缺处之后的全部内容，发现后文都是介绍普通人可以为解决贫困采取的行动，由此推出空缺处是引出做法的问句，同时满足答案不超过6个词的要求。
【解析】
逐题推导解答：
1. 定位第一段"Poverty causes bad results to millions of people in the UK and it is being made worse by problems like the rising cost of food and energy"，可知it指代前句的核心主语Poverty。
2. 待还原句"so they don't go hungry"表结果，B空前句说明食物银行的功能是给有需要的人发放免费食物包，该句放在B处可顺承逻辑，说明发放免费食物包的结果就是让有需要的人不会挨饿，其余位置逻辑均不匹配。
3. 定位第三段，受访总人数为1000，其中近90%的人担忧英国贫困问题，1000×90%=900，即近900人。
4. 定位第三段"Only 11% thought not having useful skills for work was a main reason"，直接提取对应内容即可。
5. 第四段后文全部列举应对贫困的可行做法，因此空缺处是引出做法的问句，符合语境且字数符合要求的表述为How can we deal with poverty。
【答案】
1. Poverty.
2. In B.
3. Almost 900.
4. Not having useful skills for work.
