24、 Eleven-year-old Ruby Kate Chitsey has long been close to older folks. Her mother, Amanda Chitsey, is a nurse who works at nursing homes in Harrison, and Kate often follows her around in the summer.
Last May, Ruby Kate learned a resident( 居民) named Pearl felt so sad for she had to send her dog away. The reason was that the nursing home didn’t allow residents to have dogs and Pearl couldn’t afford to pay anyone to look after hers. She also learned that many nursing home residents were unable to afford even the smallest luxuries (奢侈品). So Kate decided to do something about it.
She started by asking residents what three things they wanted most in the world. Amanda worried that people would ask for cars and other things an 11-year-old wouldn’t be able to provide. Instead, they asked for chocolate bars, McDonald’s fries, pants that fit properly, and even just a prayer.
“It broke me as a human, “Amanda says. “We left the nursing home that day and went straight to a store and bought as many items as we could.”
Using their own money, the Chitseys satisfied the wishes of about 100 people in three months. Then they started asking for donations. The good people of Harrison responded enthusiastically, so much so that Amanda set up a GoFundMe page, Three Wishes for Ruby’s Residents, hoping to collect $5,000. They hit their goal in only a few days. After GoFundMe promoted Kate’s story internationally this January, Three Wishes raised $20,000 in 24 hours and more than $250,000 in five months.
Earlier this year, Three Wishes became a nonprofit and started its first nationwide chapters.
【1】Why was Pearl unhappy?
A.Because she became terribly ill.
B.Because she couldn’t afford luxuries.
C.Because keeping dogs was forbidden.
D.Because no one looked after her dog.
【2】What do we learn about Three Wishes for Ruby’s Residents?
A.It started raising money in nursing homes.
B.It got great support from the people of Harrison.
C.It has developed branches in each state of America.
D.It only received donations of money on the Internet.
【3】What’s the author’s purpose of writing the text?
A.To popularize the Chitseys’ Three Wishes.
B.To advertise the nursing homes in Harrison.
C.To introduce how the Chitseys helped the residents.
D.To encourage people to donate for Harrison’s residents.
