Red Cross is an international organization that cares for people who are in need of help.  The Red Cross exists in almost every country around the globe.  A man in a Beijing hospital who needs blood, a woman in Turkey who was injured in an earthquake, and a family in Indonesia that lost their home in Tsunami may all be aided by the Red Cross.
    The idea of forming an organization to help people in need began with Jean Dunant.  In 1859, he observed how people were suffering on a battlefield in Paris.  He wanted to help the wounded soldiers despite which side they were fighting for.  His efforts brought on the Geneva Convention, an international treaty.  It protects prisoners of war, the sick and wounded, and other citizens during a war.
    The Red Cross in the United States was set up by Clara Barton in 1881.  Today the American Red Cross provides a lot of services for the public, such as helping people in need, teaching first aid, demonstrating water safety, and providing blood.
29. Which of the following is true about the Red Cross?
30.Who was the father of the Red Cross?
31.What made the father determined to build the Red Cross?

选项 A、Many people who are in need work in it.
B、The hospital blood is mainly provided by it.
C、Anyone can get help from it.
D、It covers nearly the whole world.

答案 D

解析 判断题。本文介绍“红十字会”的背景知识。通过浏览选项可知,本题问的是“it”的特征。需要帮助的人未必在“红十字会”工作,原文未提到,选项A是干扰项;“红十字会”可以给病人甚至医院提供血源,但是不能以此推断医院的血源主要来自“红十字会”,选项B也不对;文章一开始就说“Red Cross is an international organization that cares for the people who are in need of help.”,由此可见,并非人人都可得到其帮助,否则原文就没有必要在the people后加上限制性定语从句who are in need of help,所以选项C与原文相比逻辑上有误,扩大了外延,不能选;随后文章提到“Red Cross exists in almost every country around the globe.”告诉人们,作为一个国际组织的“红十字会”几乎遍及全球各地,选项D是对原文换个说法的重新解释,与原文相符,正确答案为D。
