Thousands of residents of the southeastern Spanish city of Lorca slept outside Wednesday night, hours after the city of about 80,000 was struck by an earthquake that killed eight people, state radio reported, citing authorities.
    "It was a strange sensation," said a press office worker who was in his office in the regional capital of Murcia, about 60 kilometers from Lorca. He estimated the duration of the quake from five to eight seconds.
    The 5.1-magnitude quake occurred at 6:47 p.m. and was centered about 50 kilometers southwest of Murcia, near the Mediterranean coast, the U.S. Geological Survey said.
    It was preceded at 5:05 p.m. by a 4.5-magnitude temblor centered in the same area, the survey said. At least one of the deaths occurred in a building collapse in Lorca, state-run EFE said.
    The press office said a hospital in Lorca had been evacuated as a precaution.
    Many of those who were spending the night outside said they were afraid to return to their houses or had been advised not to do so, state radio said.

选项 A、Earthquake occurred in the southeast of Spain.
B、Several people lost their lives in the earthquake.
C、A hospital has been used as a secure shelter for people.
D、The earthquake in Murcia did not last long.

答案C

解析 新闻指出,西班牙东南部城市洛尔卡成千上万的居民露宿外头,8万人遭遇地震,8人身亡。据新闻办公室的工作人员介绍,地震持续时间非常短,只有5到8秒的时间。选项A、B、D与新闻描述相符。来自新闻办公室的报道说洛尔卡的一所医院已疏散,以防万一,但并非将医院作为避难所,故C是不正确的。
