Every year throughout the world【C1】______6,000 earthquakes are detected. The vast majority of these are【C2】______too small or too far from populated areas to be felt. Several hundred, however, are felt and the majority of these, while frightening, are relatively harmless. A small number of earthquakes, however, are severe enough to cause serious damage to【C3】______as well as injuries and even deaths. Earthquakes are a serious concern in major cities such as Tokyo, Mexico City, Los Angeles and San Francisco which lie on or near earthquake faults.
Major earthquakes, while uncommon, rank among the deadliest of natural【C4】______. In the 20th century an average of 15,000 people have died every year due to earthquakes. Many deaths are caused by【C5】______buildings, houses, bridges and other structures.

Additionally, serious earthquake may
【C7】______a city’ s infrastructure resulting in【C8】______drinking water, impassable roads, and disruptions in the supply of power and phone service. If damage to a city’ s sanitation system and disruption of food and water supplies lasts long, earthquakes can cause significant injury and death long after the shaking of the earthquake itself has subsided.

Seismologists still cannot accurately predict the timing of earthquakes, but they can identify areas which are subject to seismic risk. Education of the population about the dangers of the earthquakes and what to do in the event one occurs are important in【C10】______damage.
A)collapsing B)increasingly C)Devastate D)approximately
E)contaminated F)neither G)catastrophes H)inevitable
I)either J)limiting K)possibility L)implement
M)side N)property O)originate
【C3】
选项
答案
N
解析
此空应填名词。选项中名词有,catastrophes(灾害)、possibility(可能性)、property(财产)。再根据原句意思:但是有少数地震非常强烈,可造成严重的财产损失甚至人员伤亡。可知,应选N。
