题目内容
Thomas Barnardo was born in Ireland in 1845. He was not very successful at school, but he wanted to help people. He moved to London and started to study medicine. London was full of poor children. Barnardo decided to help and opened schools for these children. The schools were popular. Later, he opened homes for the children without parents.
In 40 years he raised ?3,250,000. Barnardo made friends with rich and important people, he wrote letters and made speeches（演说）. He started a club for Young Helpers with 34,000 members who raised money for the poor children. He also sold photos of children before and after they got help. These pictures 
made his work famous and showed people the poor children had better lives because of their money.
Barnardo was so busy that he did not become a doctor until 1876. His next idea was to pay people to take care of homeless children and made the children have families. He helped many children go to Canada and Australia to live with their “new” parents (but not everyone thought this was a good idea). When Barnardo died in 1905, he had helped thousands and thousands of people and made their lives happier.

This is a song millions of Americans will hear this New Year’s Eve. It is called Auld Lang Syne (《友谊地久天长》)。 It is the traditional music played during the New Year’s celebration. Auld Lang Syne is an old Scottish poem. It tells about the need to remember old friends.
The words “Auld Lang Syne” mean “old long since”. No one knows who wrote the poem first. However, a version (版本) by Scottish poet Robert Burns was published（出版）in 1796. The words and the music we know today first appeared in a songbook three years later.
The song is played in the United States mainly on New Year’s Eve. The version you are hearing today is by the Washington Saxophone Quartet. As we end our program with Auld Lang Syne, I would like to wish all our radio friends a very Happy New Year! This is Buddy Thomas.
