Choose the best answer.(根据以下内容,选择最恰当的答案)(12分)
Jerry lived in a small town in America. She always wanted to help others when she was young.At the age of 5,she learnt about an organization name Locks of Love.It uses hair donations(捐献)to make wigs(假发)for children who have lost their hair because of cancer or other illnesses. Jerry then asked her mother to cut her long hair and send it to the organization.
At 8, she learnt that other children had no clean water in Africa, and she was shocked. When her school began raising money to build wells there, she asked her parents to stop holding her birthday party. Also, she asked her friends each to donate $9 to the project in Africa instead of giving her birthday presents.
One year later, it was her ninth birthday on June 12. She made a birthday page on the Internet with a goal of $300. But Jerry was able to raise only $200. This made her a little sad.
Unluckily, Jerry was badly hurt in an accident after eight days. That was terrible news to her friends. They wanted to find some ways of showing support to her. More and more friends began donating on her birthday page. Donations passed her $300 goal quickly and kept rising.
When it was clear that she would never come back to life, her parents donated her organs(器官)to other children.They also donated her hair a final time to Locks of Love.
More money was being raised. The total donations soon reached $100,000, then$300,000. So far more than $850,000 has been raised from all over the world, including donations from the Africans who are moved by the little American girl.
