Twenty-five years ago, Ray Anderson, a single parent with a one-year-old son, was returning home at Christmas Eve when he witnessed a horrible accident. The driver of a truck ran a red light and hit the car of Sandra Jenkins. That killed Sandra instantly, but her three-month-old daughter was trapped upside down in the burning wreckage. While others looked on in horror, Anderson jumped out of his vehicle and crawled into the car through the shattered rear window to try to free the infant. Seconds later, the car was totally engulfed in flames, but Anderson was miraculously able to pull the baby to safety. While the child came out of the accident virtually uninjured, Anderson was bleeding massively over half of his body. Two hours later, Anderson died, but his heroic act was published widely in the media. Anderson’s son was soon adopted by relatives, and the family moved to the East Coast.
    What really drew the public attention was some other details beyond the accident. According to the newspaper, Anderson was on a mission of love that fateful Christmas Eve in the process of distributing care packages to needy families in the area. That was a yearly tradition that he performed unbeknownst to everyone. This he did because of his firm conviction that the best Christmas gifts came not from the gift received, but from those given, and that those acts of charity should remain anonymous. As it turns out, Sandra Jenkins was also involved in similar volunteer work throughout the community.
    Merry Christmas! Share this remarkable Christmas story with all of you, courage, life, and love.  
13. What event did Ray Anderson witness at the beginning of the story?

选项 A、Giving necessity to the homeless with friends.
B、Helping delivering packages in the post office.
C、Taking goods to the local needy people.

答案 C

解析 -ing选项题,一般问“正在做什么事”。由提示词homeless、needy people、poor,猜测题目与某人做义工或善事有关。短文说,据报纸披露,Ray在向有需要的家庭派发爱心包裹,故答案是C。他是给有需要的陌生人送去圣诞礼物,排除B。没有人知道他这样做,也没有朋友的参与,排除A。他是匿名进行的,排除D。
