Last year,I decided to sell used things on Alibaba's online flea market.I created an account and put pictures of my used pencil bags and notebooks online.Soon, a buyer sent a message to ask me for some details about my notebooks and finally took them.I've sold some other items as well.I have got over 50 yuan from my sales.

In our school,if someone gets good grades,he can get a scholarship(奖金).Last year,I placed 20th in our final exam and got 2,500 yuan.This made me work harder.I already have a good plan for my scholarship:some will go for my parents' birthdays and the rest for an electronic keyboard, something I have been dreaming about.

My friends and I decided to give money to poor people in Africa.We came up with a way to make money.We were allowed to buy a big box of ice cream from the supermarket and sold it at school after lunch.We've made 1,000 yuan.We will contact The International Committee of the Red Cross(红十字会)to give the money.
