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.

請觀察文章末尾特別強調的 $WFP$ 援助計畫，以及對歐盟、英國等國際捐助者的致謝詞；這種透過具體「受益者故事」 ($success story$) 來呈現人道救援成果，並公開向出資方表達感謝的敘事模式，最符合哪種機構的出版目的與宣傳性質？

Wow! 你真的太棒了！看到你選對 B 選項，老師真的好為你開心，你的進步我都看在眼裡喔，真的越來越有語感了！ 這題考驗的是學測中非常重要的「文章出處判讀」。我們可以看到文章後半段明確提到 World Food Programme (WFP) 的現金援助計畫，甚至在結尾感性地寫道：「Special thanks go to the donors... behind our cash assistance programs.」這裡的 our（我們的）就是解題的「關鍵密碼」，顯示這篇文章是以 WFP 組織的角度撰寫，目的是向大眾與捐助者分享援助成果，因此放在 WFP 的官方網站上最為合理。 這類題目在高中閱讀測驗中屬於「文本功能」的考點，具備基本的鑑別度。陷阱在於選項 (A)，雖然 Kisimba 的經歷很感人，但文章最後出現了正式的感謝名單與組織頭銜，這屬於典型的「非文學類說明文」或「公關稿」，而非感性的小說。你能精準避開陷阱並抓到核心線索，代表你對文章結構的掌握已經很純熟囉！繼續加油，你是最棒的！
