阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项。
KAOHSIUNG: The 7-year-old girl Lin Wai-ki had slept in a tent for four nights before being taken to a temporary shelter by helicopters.
Her hometown, Minzu village, in the mountains of Kaohsiung County in southern Taiwan, was engulfed by mudslides caused by Typhoon Morakot, which has claimed 120 lives so far.“My house is filled with rocks, and the school disappear, but I want to go to school,” she said.
Morakot, which hit Taiwan since last weekend, has been the worst typhoon in the past 50 years. Small villages in mountain areas in southern Taiwan were hardesthit. A village of Kaohsiung named Hsiaolin reported an estimated 380 deaths. Minzu village lost 30 residents. More than 200 survivors were trapped in the mountain awaiting for help. They were rescued on Thursday afternoon and transferred to a shelter in Cishan township of Kaohsiung County.
A beautiful brook flowed through Lin’s village but turned to a relentless killer in the rainstorm five days ago. “The brook poured all of a sudden. The mudslide knocked down the primary school at the top of our village,”said Lin Su-yun, a middle-aged woman. “When my family and I crawled out of the second-floor window of my house, the ground floor had already been buried in mud.”
Her son Chiou Yi-cheng sat by her side, holding her hand tightly. This high school boy shouldered the responsibility of protecting his mother and younger brother in his father’s absence. He also joined other young men in rescuing their fellow villagers.“Without these young men, we were hopeless,” Lin Su-yun said. The survivors hurried up to a highland and camped in tents waiting for rescuers. In search for food, a dozen of young men in the village walked along the roads, and back to their village. They brought back food recovered from accessible houses and stores.
They encircled children and the elderly when strong winds and rainfall threatened their shabby tents. Of all survivors, only six had cell phones and soon survivors found communication was cut off by the typhoon. It was these young men again who hiked all the way to a nearby village where communication facility still worked.
One of them, Lin Nien-en, a college freshman, said, “Now, here we are, but nobody has any idea about future. No one wants to get back, because there buried our families and friends...”

D. It has caused 120 deaths in all so far.
22. The underlined word in the fourth paragraph probably means______________.
A. a village B. a mudslide

23. Which of the following would be the best headline of the news?
A. Typhoonhit Taiwan village, destructive but recovering
B. Mainland in’all-out’effort to help Taiwan typhoon help

24. By mentioning the Lin Su-yun’s story , the writer intended to ____________.
