五、阅读理解。(2025·江苏南京鼓楼区期末)
Have you ever wanted to help someone in need or start a project for your community? GoFundMe might be the answer! Let's learn how GoFundMe works.
What can you do on GoFundMe?
Since 2010, GoFundMe has helped millions of people raise money for personal needs, community projects, or charity events. Here's how it works:
Start Your Action: Share your story with photos or videos. For example, you could raise money for a sick pet, a school garden, or a family facing difficulties.
Set a Goal: Decide how much money you need. Even small amounts can make a big difference!
Share Widely: Send your story to teachers and friends, and post it on social media to let more people give a helping hand.
Why is GoFundMe special?
Unlike traditional charities, GoFundMe lets donors (捐赠者) choose exactly where their money goes. If you care about animals, you can donate your money to an animal centre. If you want to help a classmate with a serious disease, you can do that too!
Is it safe?
Yes! GoFundMe needs a little money (about 2.9% per donation) to keep the website running well. They also use strong security (安全) tools to protect everyone's personal information. Over 150 million people have trusted GoFundMe—it's one of the safest crowdfunding platforms (众筹平台) in the world.
Ready to try?
Whether you want to help others or make your own dream come true, GoFundMe makes donation simple. Remember: Every great idea starts with a first step!

2. A 【点拨】由“GoFundMe needs a little money(about 2.9% per donation) to keep the website running well.”可知,每笔捐款会扣除 2.9%的费用。100,000 元扣除 2.9%(即 2900 元)后,玛丽能得到 97,100 元。故选 A。
3. C 【点拨】文章围绕“GoFundMe 是什么、如何运作、为何特别、是否安全”展开,核心是介绍这个安全且受欢迎的众筹平台。故选 C。

【分析】
做这篇阅读理解时，首先可以先浏览3道题干明确考点，再带着问题回原文定位对应内容：第1题是事物定义类细节题，直接找对GoFundMe的功能描述句排除错误选项即可；第2题是细节计算题，定位平台收费规则的语句，做简单减法计算就能得出结果；第3题是主旨大意题，梳理全文的行文结构，判断文章核心介绍对象，排除偏离主旨的干扰项就能选出正确答案。
【解析】
1. 第1题：根据原文第二段"GoFundMe has helped millions of people raise money for personal needs, community projects, or charity events"可知，GoFundMe是用于帮人们为各类需求筹款的慈善相关平台，A选项动物中心、B选项社区团体、C选项购物网站均不符合描述，只有D选项慈善组织符合，故选D。
2. 第2题：根据原文倒数第二段"GoFundMe needs a little money (about 2.9% per donation) to keep the website running well"可知，每笔捐款会扣除2.9%作为平台运营费，100000元扣除的费用为100000×2.9%=2900元，玛丽最终能拿到的金额为100000-2900=97100元，故选A。
3. 第3题：全文分别从平台功能、运作流程、独特优势、安全性四个维度展开介绍GoFundMe，核心目的是向读者介绍这个安全受欢迎的众筹平台。A选项"教人们如何选择线上慈善"、B选项"鼓励人们为世界做更多好事"、D选项"告诉人们如何在线保护个人信息"均不是文章核心主旨，只有C选项符合，故选C。
