【解析】

试题分析：文章给我们介绍了红十字会的创立、任务及她所做的重大贡献。

【1】whose.考查关系代词。此处是定语从句，先行词是organization与task的关系是“这个组织的任务”，表示“谁的”用whose。whose task在定语从句中做主语，故填whose.

【2】or.考查连词。句意：他们不管种族、国籍、宗教还是政治信仰。几者是并列关系，此句是否定句用or表示并列，故填or.

【3】in.考查介词。此处是固定短语in need“在危难中，在穷困中”，故填in.

【4】dead.考查形容词。此处和动词be连用，与or后的 injured并列，要用形容词，故填dead.

【5】was established.考查时态语态。根据句中时间in 1863可知用过去时，根据主语和动词的关系可知是红十字会被建立，故填过去时的被动形式was established.

【6】another.考查代词。此处指另一个会议在日内瓦召开。根据句意填another.

【7】involved.考查动词。get involved in是固定短语“被卷入”，get+过去分词表被动，故填involved.

【8】has helped.考查时态。根据时间状语Since then可知句子用现在完成时，主语是单数，故填has helped.

【9】taking.考查非谓语动词。句中主语The Red Cross和动词take是主动关系，用-ing形式做状语，故填taking.

【10】clearly.考查副词。此处修饰动词fulfilling要用副词，故填clearly.
