An elderly woman has broken down in tears inside a Coles supermarket after arriving in the canned food aisle to empty【小题1】(shelf),with all products taken by ＂selfish"panic buyers.

“【小题4】(honest),that is the picture 【小题5】catches this madness,"one person responded.

＂This really breaks my heart,the elderly have already given to society,why aren't we looking after them?”another said.

＂This absolutely breaks my heart.If I【小题6】(know)where this lady lives,I'd help her out with food in a heartbeat.This has to stop now,"【小题7】third wrote.

One lady claimed she"sobbed 【小题8】10 minutes"after seeing the image,and hoped"someone helped her fill her basker"and made sure she was.OK at home. Others shared similarly shocking events they had seen during the COVID-19(新冠病毒）chaos.

Singapore has announced new measures 【小题1】 (design) to quickly increase local food production, including rooftop farming. Officials in the citystate recently set a goal to meet 30 per cent of Singapore's nutritional needs with 【小题2】 (local) produced food by 2030. The plan includes $21 million in government money to support local production of eggs, vegetables and fish “in 【小题3】 shortest possible time.” The plans 【小题4】 (announce) as the worldwide spread of COVID-19 has caused shortages of many products, 【小题5】 (include) food in some areas.

Currently, Singapore produces only about 10 per cent of its own food needs. Only 1 per cent of Singapore's 724 square kilometres is currently used for agriculture. And production costs there are 【小题6】 (high) than the rest of Southeast Asia.

Singapore's Food Agency says its goal is to raise local food production levels to make up for climate change and population growth 【小题7】 could threaten worldwide food supplies. Singapore officials want all its citizens to have a 【小题8】 (believe) that the citystate has enough food to get through the COVID-19 crisis. But they have decided to speed up the process of increasing local production to begin 【小题9】 the next six months. This plan includes efforts 【小题10】 (identity) alternative farming spaces, such as industrial areas and empty building spaces. It also calls for adding new technologies to improve farming methods.

The COVID-19 pandemic has made people’s life tough. Petra Bignami, 【小题1】 mom of three in Brookline, started a project to encourage her three kids and neighbors.

It is called Project Hope. Petra wanted to focus on 【小题2】 to stay hopeful to enable people to have more 【小题3】 (confident) in the future. The family placed pens and paper hearts outside their home to encourage people to write a message on the paper hearts. Now each day they get 【小题4】 (high) encouraging messages from neighbors and people walking by. The messages 【小题5】 (leave) by people include: “Keep calm and rise above”, and “Be kind to others — we don’t know what diffculties they have”. These messages help everyone who finds 【小题6】 hard to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic know there are much 【小题7】 (sunny) days ahead.

“This makes us feel like we are part 【小题8】 a bigger group. It can help us get through the darkness of the pandemic,” Petra explained. The project 【小题9】 (create) in September last year, and so far, there have been over 1,000 paper hearts 【小题10】 people wrote messages. The number keeps growing at present.
