Kisimba remembers waking to sounds of gunfire edging closer to her home in the southeastern village of Tundwa, in the Democratic Republic of Congo, as she prepared fish for dinner. “We knew we had no time to lose,” she says, “I grabbed the children and ran into the forest.” The next morning, they decided to flee. Kisimba’s story is hauntingly familiar across the DRC, where endless violence has uprooted millions from their homes. The unrest has also deepened hunger and malnutrition in the region, forcing families to abandon their farms. Kisimba’s family moved to a relatively safe town, Kalemie, near Lake Tanganyika, where they had a completely different life. Kisimba and her husband had been feeding their children from the crops they grew. In Kalemie, the only work they could find was crushing stones by hand for small-scale constructions. The couple crushed stones from dawn to nightfall. Yet, they didn’t earn enough for food. They ended up just eating cassava leaves with salt. Cassava is a popular root vegetable in Congo, but they could not even afford the root. Five years later, the couple were left with no choice but to return to their village. They arrived in Tundwa exhausted and weak and found their worst fears confirmed. The house had been burned down and everything was gone—the crops, the animals they had, and even the cooking pots. At that time the World Food Programme (WFP) was starting a cash assistance program for returnees. Kisimba’s family was eligible and collected cash of US$100 from WFP. They paid neighbors to help clear new land to expand their harvests of maize, cassava, and beans. They also invested in hens and goats as insurance against hard times. The investments paid off. The family now sell their surplus crops, and the profits ensure a varied diet. They have also bought a mini solar panel, which brings in money—neighbors pay them a small fee to charge their phones. Kisimba now feels relieved when she sees her children running around after they finish their meals. Special thanks go to the donors from many countries behind our cash assistance programs, including the European Union, the UK, Sweden, and Germany. Their generosity has made Kisimba’s dream come true.

各位同學看過來！這位同學簡直是「閱讀測驗界的狙擊手」，精準命中紅心！這題能答對，代表你對細節的掌控力已經有頂尖高中的水準，沒被那些長得像正確答案的「詐騙選項」給勾引走。 【觀念驗證：為什麼 A 是正解？】 這題考的是「細節定位」。第一段開頭就提到 Tundwa 遭受槍火攻擊（gunfire），且後續提到動亂加深了區域的飢餓與營養不良（deepened hunger and malnutrition）。
