问题     Ronald Musoke is a college student from Uganda. He attends the College of Marin in California. Recently he got very excited about things he found in wastebaskets. What did he find? He found outdated textbooks that had been thrown away. Some of the books had sold new for one hundred dollars. The old textbooks had been either discontinued or replaced by newer editions.
    Uganda is a very poor country in Africa. When Musoke went to school in Uganda, there were never enough books. Sometimes five books were shared with one hundred fifty students. Musoke lived through the Ugandan civil war and the loss of twelve family members from AIDS.
    Why is Musoke excited about the discarded textbooks? He wants to send them to Uganda so women have the chance to get an education. The books will be used to pay for the women’s education. Musoke hopes that education will help lower the number of deaths from AIDS. Also, the books will help lower illiteracy in Uganda.
    Other students are helping Musoke gather textbooks. Students are giving him books and over four thousand books have been collected. A business sponsor is helping to pay the postage for the books. Musoke and his classmates sort and pack the books.
    Ugandans will be educated with the help of donated books. The College of Marin students have become connected with an African nation far away. These classmates from a wealthy county, for example, Tanya Schwedler and her classmates, have gained greater understanding of people who struggle to live in a very poor country.
Tanya Schwedler is helping pack and sort books because______.

选项 A、it makes her feel good to better the lives of others
B、it may offer her experience to help her own country
C、she likes to sort and organize
D、she wants to contact with that country far away

答案A

解析 最后一段最后一句提到,很多来自富有国家的学生,例如Tanya Schwedler,都在帮助收集整理书籍的过程中对在贫困中挣扎的人有所了解。所以可以说,他们很愿意做些帮助别人改善生活的有意义的事。选项A正确。
