[16]The Red Cross is an international organization which cares for people who are in need of help. A man in Paris hospital who needs blood, a woman in Mexico who was injured in an earthquake, and a family in India that lost their home in a storm may all be aided by the Red Cross. The Red Cross exists in almost every country around the globe. The world Red Cross organizations are sometimes called the
Red Crescent, the Red Mogen David, the Sun, and the Red Lion. All of these agencies share a common goal of trying to help people in need. [17]The idea of forming an organization to help the sick and wounded during a war started with Jean Henri Dunant. In 1859, he observed how people were suffering on a battle field in Italy. He wanted to help all the wounded people regardless of which side they were fighting for. The most important result of his work was an international treaty called the Geneva Convention. It protects prisoners of war, the sick and wounded, and other citizens during a war. The American Red Cross was set up by Clara Barton in 1881. [18]Today the Red Cross in the United States provides a number of services for the public, such as helping people in need, teaching first aid and providing blood.
16.What does the speaker say about the Red Cross?
17.What was Jean Henri Dunant’s purpose to set up the organization?
18.According to the speaker, what service does the Red Cross provide?
选项

D、Publicizing the idea of charity.
答案

解析
短文最后提到美国红十字会向公众提供的服务,包括帮助有需要的人、传授急救知识和献血,B属于其中一方而,故正确。A为Geneva Convention的内容,故排除;根据常识可排除C;D未在短文中提到,故排除。
