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:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option 1: The first - hand account in "A Story of the Red Cross" about Galveston work is not mainly to show recovery condition improvement. The focus is on the Red Cross's work and team.
• Option 2: The account is not just to show a group Clara helped. It's more about the team's experience.
• Option 3: A first - hand account of the work in Galveston by the author (related to Clara Barton and the Red Cross) would emphasize the benefits an experienced team (like the Red Cross team) provides, as they could handle disaster relief effectively.
• Option 4: The account is not to show a place Clara was forced to work. She was involved in relief work voluntarily as part of the Red Cross.

Answer:

C. to emphasize the benefits an experienced team provides
