China's child population makes up one fifth of the world's total.

“The reason behind the remarkable 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(小吃), 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.

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

She said that CYDF set up the Project Hope in 1989, which walls 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(建立) of 2,074 Hope primary schools and enabled more than 1.25 million dropouts to return to school classrooms.

Christmas was an exciting season for my six-year-old son. For weeks, he’d been memorizing   36  for the “Winter Ceremony” in his kindergarten class. I went to  37  their rehearsal(排演).
