Question

in a story of the red cross, why does the author provide a first-hand account of the work in galveston?
○ to emphasize how recovery conditions have improved
○ to show a group of people who clara helped during a disaster
○ to emphasize the benefits an experienced team provides
○ to show the place where clara was forced to work

Explanation:

In "A Story of the Red Cross", when the author provides a first - hand account of the work in Galveston, the purpose is to show the benefits an experienced team (like Clara Barton and her Red Cross team) provides. The first option is incorrect as the account is not about recovery condition improvement. The second option is wrong because it's not mainly about showing the group of people helped but the value of the team's work. The fourth option is incorrect as it's not about showing a place Clara was forced to work.

Answer:

C. to emphasize the benefits an experienced team provides (assuming the options are labeled A, B, C, D with the third option being C)
