The museum was built in memory of those [br]
The International Red Cross in Red Crescent Museum was opened in Geneva in 1988. It tells the story of men and women who in the course of the major events of the last 150 years have given assistance to victims of war and natural disasters. The organization was established in 1863 and was based on the idea by a Swiss businessman called Henry Durant. He had witnessed the heavy casualties of the battle of Solferino in Italy four years earlier, in which 40,000 people were killed, wounded or missing. He had seen the lack of medical services in the great suffering of many of the wounded who simply died from lack of care.
The International Red Cross or Red Crescent exists to help the victims of conflicts and disasters regardless of their nationalities. The symbol of the organization was originally just a red cross. It has no religious significance. The founders of the movement adopted it as a tribute to Switzerland. However, during the rest of the Turkish war, the Turks felt that the cross could be seen as a fence to the Muslim soldiers and the second symbol, the red crescent, was adopted for use by national organizations in the Islamic world. Both are now official symbols.
选项
A、Both are used as the organization’s official symbols.
B、Both are used regardless of religious significance.
C、The red cross was the organization’s original symbol.
D、The red crescent was later adopted for use in certain regions.
答案
B
解析
原文中提到红十字作为国际红十字会的标志没有宗教含义,而只是为了向该组织发起人的祖国瑞士表示敬意(瑞士国旗为正方形红底白十字)。但当该协会在伊斯兰教社会开展活动时,为避免人们把它与基督教(历史上曾有十多次十字军东征,即与伊斯兰教开战)联系起来,该组织采用了红色新月标记。尽管这两种标记本身并无宗教色彩,但其使用还是与宗教环境有关,因此B为正确选项。
