For Americans, a mosquito bite is an itchy bother. But for many in Africa, a tiny bite can be deadly. One million people die each year of malaria, a disease spread by infected mosquitoes. Most of these people live in Africa, and are under age 5.
Malaria can be prevented and treated. However, many African nations don't have the funds to fight it. Nothing but Nets (NBN) hopes to change that. The United Nations Foundation created the campaign in 2006. The aim is to prevent malaria by covering sleeping areas with nets. Hanging bed nets treated with insecticide(殺蟲劑) is the simplest way to stop mosquitoes from biting at night. The chemicals last four to five years. For $10, anyone can send a net to Africa and help save a life.
So far, NBN has raised $19 million and delivered 700,000 nets to seven countries. Families are taught how to use the nets. Kids also get vaccines (疫苗)and vitamins. "Women line up for miles to get the medicine for their kids," says NBN director Elizabeth McKee Gore. "They understand the importance."
So do kids in this country. "They get so excited thinking of ways to raise money," says NBN spokesperson and basketball star Ruth Riley.
NBN's biggest fund-raiser is Katherine Commale, 7. She's been spreading the information about bed nets for the past two years. To show how they work, she and her brother made a video. "We teach that bed nets can save lives," she said.
Katherine has raised $42,000 for NBN. "She just wants those who need a net to have one," says her mom, Lynda. "It's pretty simple to her." To find out how you can help, visit nothingbutnets.net.
We know from the passage that NBN is in fact _________.
A. a deadly disease B. an organization
C. a piece of equipment D. a game
The purpose of the passage is most probably ___________.
A. to list the sufferings of the African people
B. to introduce new ways to avoid mosquito bites
C. to call on people to offer their help to Africans
D. to tell people how to buy nets in Africa
By saying “So do kids in this country” in Paragraph 4,the author means that kids in this country also ___________.
A. know the importance of the bed nets
B. know how to protect themselves
C. lack nets to protect themselves
D. suffer from malaria
What do we know about Katherine from the passage?
A. She set up the website nothingbutnets.net.
B. She is the youngest money-raiser for NBN.
C. She raised money by making and selling videos.
D. She started working for NBN at the age of 5.
