25、UNICEF is an international charity that helps children around the world. It was set up in 1946 to help children in Europe and China after World War II. It wanted to make life better for those who were badly influenced.
Now, UNICEF has a number of plans and hopes to achieve for children in every country. For example, they think that all children should be able to have safe drinking water. They also work hard to make sure that children can get medicine if they are ill. In many countries, children, especially girls, do not have the chance to go to school, so UNICEF tries to let them get a good education.
UNICEF is different from many other charities because it works with different governments around the world. Though many governments have their own systems (体系) to improve the lives of their children, UNICEF has so much experience that it can advise governments on how to make their systems better. UNICEF has done many great things since it started and will carry on with its work only if people can keep donating money to help it.

26、His name was Fleming, and he was a poor Scottish farmer. One day late in the afternoon, while working to support his family, he heard a cry for help coming from a nearby pond.
He dropped his tools and ran to the pond. There, up to his neck in the water, was a terrified boy, crying and struggling to free himself. Obviously the boy did not know how to swim. Fleming jumped into the pond and quickly swam toward the boy. He saved the boy from what could have been a terrible death.
The next day, a very cool carriage pulled up to the Scotsman’s house. A well-dressed nobleman stepped out and introduced himself as the father of the boy Fleming saved the day before.
“I want to repay you,” said the nobleman. “You saved my son’s life.”
“No, I can’t accept any payment for what I did,” the Scottish farmer replied, waving off the offer.
At that moment, the farmer’s own son came to the door of the farmhouse, confused by who was visiting them.
“Is that your son?” the nobleman asked.
“Yes,” the farmer replied proudly.
“I’ll make you a deal. Let me take him with me. I promise you that I will give him a good education. If the boy is anything like his father, he’ll grow up to be a man you can be proud of.”
And he did. In time, Fleming’s son graduated from St. Mary’s Hospital Medical School in London and went on to become a famous doctor.
Years later, the nobleman’s son became seriously ill. Who saved him? The farmer’s son did.
It’s important to help people no matter how successful you are in life. You never know when you are going to be the one who needs the help.

27、 When I was thirteen years old, I became very interested in shopping. After a while being just a buyer, I wanted to sell something. I had many things around the house from my childhood that I no longer needed. I knew, with the help of my father, I could make money. So far months and months I enjoyed myself by selling things on my dad's account(账户).
On December 9, 2017, I opened my own account and began to start my own business. Things were going great and then I realized that selling things around house wasn't making me, the kind of money that I wanted to make, so I decided to turn my business into a resale shop. I went around to the garage sale(旧货出售处)and bought items at low prices and sold them at higher prices.
Last November, I went to a garage sale that was a little bit different. A single lady had many nice items that I knew I would sell quickly. I went up to her and started a conversation with her. Through the conversation, I knew she was jobless at the moment and needed money to support her family. I decided to sell any of her things for her to help her out. She looked at me for a moment and then broke into tears. I took away some of her things and over the next month I made over $1,500 for her! She was so thankful for all of my help.
I have never felt so happy to help someone in my life. I felt as if I had made a difference in this world and that my skills could be used to help someone who would really need it.
