问题     In 1945 leaders from 51 countries met in San Francisco, California, and organized the United Nations (often called the UN). World War II had just ended. Millions of people had died, and there was destruction everywhere. People hoped they could build a future of world peace through this new organization.
    The United Nations has four main goals and purposes;
    1. To work together for international peace and to solve international problems;
    2. To develop friendly relations among nations;
    3. To work together for human rights for everyone of all races, religions, languages and of both sexes;
    4. To build a center where nations can work together for these goals.
    Today almost every country in the world is a member of the UN. Each country has signed an agreement that says;
    1. All members are equal.
    2. All members promise to solve international problems in a peaceful way.
    3. No member will use force against another member.
    4. All members will help the UN in its actions.
    5. The UN will not try to solve problems within countries except to enforce international peace.
    Obviously, the United Nations has not been completely successful in its goals. There have been several wars since 1945. However, the organization has helped bring peace to some countries that were at war. It has helped people who left their countries because of wars. It has helped bring independence to colonies.
    The main United Nations organization is in New York City, but the UN has a "family" of other related organizations all over the world. These organizations try to provide a better life for everyone. One example is UNICEF, an organization that provides food, medical care, and many other services for poor children wherever they live. Another example is the World Health Organization, which develops medical programs all over the world.
    There are thousands of UN workers in developing countries. They work as planners to increase production in fanning and industry. They provide medical services, improve education programs, and spread scientific information. They develop programs that provide jobs and better living conditions. They help countries control their population growth.
    The United Nations also holds large international conferences, where people meet to discuss important world issues. One conference was about the uses and ownership of oceans. Another was about women. There are also International Years. In these special years, people work together to improve situations and solve problems. One year was the International Year of the Child.
    For centuries countries have fought each other, and powerful countries have taken control of weaker ones. It is very difficult to persuade nations to live together in peace. Nevertheless, the United Nations is attempting to do this. It is the only organization that unites the world in the search for peace.
The United Nations is______nations to live together in peace, though it is difficult.
