【解析】

试题分析：本文叙述了中国红十字会已经到达遭受海啸袭击的地区。进行国际援救，并且给予了物质和金钱方面的捐助。

1.推理判断题。根据reports from the RCSC said on January 14, 2005. 推测，文章很可能来自报纸，而不是广告或者指导书。故选A。

2.细节理解题。根据第二段第一句话可知，遭受海啸袭击的国家有：印度尼西亚、斯里兰卡和泰国。故选B。

3.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段可知，有两只中国红十字会已经到达遭受海啸袭击的地区。还有一只队伍下周去泰国。故选B。

4.细节理解题。根据The rest of the money will be sent for rebuilding villages, schools and orphanages可知，其余的钱会用于建设村子学校和孤儿院。故选A。

5.推理判断题。A项中的钱数$ 20.66 million和文中的18 million U.S. dollars不符。C项中提到两只营救队到了泰国，与文中的印度尼西亚、斯里兰卡不符。故B（中国红十字会将在网上按时报道所用钱数。）与文章的内容一致。
