25、四大功能：维护国际和平；发展各国之间的友好关系；协作以解决国际间的政治冲突和促进对人权的尊重； 充当一个组织各国行动或工作的中心。As you know, the UN touchesthe lives of people everywhere.The organization is helping end some of the worlds most horrible conflicts.The UN does not have its own army.Instead, it borrows soldiers from different countries that belong to

28、 where the UN has programmes to help people.So, how do I help by visiting these countries?

30、on the projects 为现在分词短语作定语。draw someones attention to 使(某人)察觉到正如你们所知，联合国触及世界各地人们的生活。该组织正在协助终止世界上一些最恐怖的冲突。联合国没有自己的军队，而是向所属各成员国借用士兵。在这些军队和其他一些可敬的组织的协助下，联合国为战争及灾难的受害者提供援助。此外，联合国维护人权，努力改进国际法律，例如那些关于童工以及少数民族和妇女的平等权利的法律。以上是对联合国的简单介绍。现在我要跟大家谈谈我一直在联合国所做的工作。我参与做的联合国的工作不是有偿的，而是志愿的。正如我前面所说的那样，我要访问联合国实施扶助项目的国家。
31、那么，我如何通过访问这些国家来达到帮助的目的呢？是这样的，如果我访问这些国家，电视和报刊等媒体就会跟随我，并记录我的访问过程。这会增加人们对联合国工作的认识。此外，我的访问将鼓励正工作在这些项目上的人，并引起当地人对此种形势的关注。I have visited many countries in Africa.Recently，I was fortunate enough to travel to South Africa, where I met some women who have organized themselves into a group.They collect approx

39、，联合国还帮助国家解决其他问题，如教育缺失、饥饿、灾难、艾滋病和其他疾病。在2000年召开的一次联合国会议上，所有的成员国都同意，到2015年争取实现8个发展目标。目标之一是保证每个人都能够喝到干净的水，因为在很多地方得把水煮沸后才能放心饮用。另外一个发展目标是保证所有的孩子都能够完成小学教育。如果你们想知道更多的情况，你们可以浏览联合国的相关网页。所以你看，由于联合国的工作，全世界的人被拉得更近了。A卷 阅读理解AYears ago, my wife and I volunteered at a homeless shelter in downtown Los Angeles, US, pr
