Below are some suggestions given by the English children posted on the website about how to help
Africa. Which one do you think is the best?
I think health is the most important thing. We need to make sure that the money we give is
spent wisely. The money should be spent first on clean water supplies and better health care.
-----Robin, aged 16, Birmingham |
I think the most important thing is to improve the education of the African countries.
There is an old saying,"If you give a man a fish, you'll feed him for a day. If you teach him
how to fish, you'll feed him for a lifetime." We need to help people to help themselves, not
just throw money at the problem when it appears.
-----Rebecca, aged 15, Liverpool |
People seem to give a lot more money to charity when there is a sudden, huge disaster (灾难) like the earthquake. It's good for people to do so, but I also think that everyone should
give a small part of their salary (工资) to charity. If everyone did that, it would make a big
difference.
-----Mary, aged 14, Stratford-on-Avon |
Giving money to charity can help, but it's not the final answer. I think what these
countries need is a good government.
-----Bethany, aged 16, Newcastle |
The best thing we can do is to send experts like engineers, doctors and teachers to
help the people to help themselves.
-----Robert, aged 16, Cardiff |
