问题  
A study recently concluded that the public in industrialized nations are becoming more interested than before in helping the less fortunate people of developing nations. This newfound selflessness has not resulted in personal giving of money, but rather in individual efforts to give aid through service— which is far more important than money. Most volunteers have been professionals. Doctors and nurses have volunteered for medical duty, engineers for building roads and bridges, and teachers and others have made themselves available for a variety of international assignments.
    It is not clear why this phenomenon is taking place. There has been consideration that international developments in recent years have weakened nationalism and have emphasized  importance of all humanity working together for a better world.

选项 A、A couple’s experience as volunteers.
B、The need for volunteers in the Third World.
C、A new public emphasis on volunteering.
D、the rewards of volunteering.

答案 C

解析 本文第一句及最后一句是找到本题答案的关键。文章开始告诉我们,最新研究表明,工业国家的公众较以前对帮助发展中国家的不幸的人们更感兴趣。而这种无私(selflessness)的表现不是拿钱出来,而是个人努力通过服务来给予帮助,那比钱更重要,文章细而举例说明人们如何在国际事务中提供个人服务。文章最后一句则告诉我们:最近几年的国际发展是减弱民族主义(weaken nationalism)而强调全人类共同为美好世界而努力的重要性。另外,通过newfound selflessness及volunteers 等字眼,考生可猜出答案。
