After my husband died suddenly from a heart attack，my world crashed around me．My six children were all under 10，and I was burdened with the responsibilities of earning a living，and   caring for the children．I was fortunate to find a wonderful housekeeper to care for the children during the week，but from Friday nights to Monday mornings，the children and t were alone．
One Friday evening I came home from work to find a big pretty German shepherd off our doorstep．This dog seemed to intend to enter the house．The children liked “German” immediately and begged me to let him in．I agreed to let him sleep in the basement．That night I slept peacefully for the first time in many weeks．
The following morning we made phone calls and checked lost-and-found ads for German’s owner, but with no results．
On Sunday I had planned to take the children on a picnic．Since I thought it best to leave German behind in case his owner came by，we drove off without him．When we stopped to get gas, we were amazed to see German racing to the gas station after us．No way was he going to be left behind．
Monday morning I let him out for a run．He didn’t come back and we were all disappointed．
We were convinced that we would never see him again．We were wrong．The next Friday evening,
German was back on other doorstep．Again he stayed until Monday morning，when our housekeeper arrived．
This pattern repeated itself every．weekend for almost 10 months．We grew more and more fond of German．We took comfort in his strong，warm presence，and we felt safe with him near us．
As German became part of the family，he considered it his duty to check every bedroom to be sure each child was cozy in bed．
Each week，between German’s visits，I grew a little stronger，a little braver and mole able to cope；every weekend we were no long alone and enjoyed his company．Then one Monday morning we patted him on his head and let him out for what turned out to be the Iast time．We never saw German again．
64．The dog first came when         ．
A．it was needed most    B．the mother became strong enough

A senior United Nations Children’s Fund(UNICEF) official on May 29 praised China for its remarkable achievements in children’s welfare.

A. H. M. Farook, UNICEF’s operations area officer for China and Mongolia said that China “can be very satisfied to tell the whole world what can be done with limited resources to help its children to grow healthily and happily.”

　　China’s child population makes up one-fifth of the world’s total. “The reason behind the tremendous(巨大的) achievement is China’s long tradition of caring for children both at home and in society,” he said.

　　“What’s more is that Chinese people have always given special attention to children who are in special need.” The UN official made the remarks when addressing a group of 50 children and staff from the Beijing Children’s Welfare Home at the Shangri-la Hotel, Beijing.

　　The hotel invited the orphans to share snacks, sing, dance and play games at a park inside the hotel for a “Share the Sunshine” party, as a prelude(前奏) to celebrations to mark the Children’s Day.

　　The Beijing children’s Welfare Home, set up soon after New China was founded in 1949, has at present more than 400 children.

　　A leading official of the welfare institution said that the children live a happy life and that the agency spends 400—500 yuan a month for an average orphan. An average Chinese workers earned 440 yuan a month during the first quarter this year.

　　Gu Xiaojin, deputy secretary-general of the China Youth Development Foundation(CYDF), said people from all walks of life have contributed to the welfare of the Chinese children.

　　She said that CYDF set up the Project Hope in 1989, which calls on people across the country to donate money to help poor children to continue their schooling.

　　By the end of last year, she said, CYDF had collected nearly 700 million yuan in donations, which has helped the establishment of 2, 074 Hope primary schools and enabled more than 1. 25 million dropouts to return to school classrooms.

　　Three “Hope Stars” also attended the party. They were model teenagers chosen among students who are economically supported by the Project Hope to further their nine-year compulsory studies in the poverty-stricken regions. They will be torchbearers for the Chinese Team for the up coming Atlanta Olympic Games this year.
