A minute seems a short time when one is in a pleasant place, and sometimes it passed much too quickly. But in an earthquake it is terribly long. At one moment you are living your usual life. At the next your chairs and tables am dancing on the floor, your house is moving about, and your worm is suddenly changed. You cannot be sure what will happen next. You cannot ha sure if you will be alive to see what happens next.
选项
答案 usual life
解析 该题需要听出句子的宾语。动词是are living，应该跟同源宾语life，这一点较为容易。但其修饰语需要根据读音判断。如果对篇章结构熟悉，可以把该句与后面的句子结合在一起理解，对应的短语是at one moment和at the next。后面讲地震的时刻，前面就是usual“通常”的时候了。．
