At about 460 miles one earthquake occurs only every few years. Near the surface earthquakes may run as【C2】______as 100 in a month, but the yearly average does not vary much.

If a building is well constructed and built on solid ground, it will【C7】______an earthquake. Most deaths in earthquakes have been due to faulty building construction or poor building【C8】______.

答案
L
解析
affected,词义辨析题。根据词性,此处应当填入动词被动式。此处表示受到地震影响的国家。affect和effect作为动词,都含“影响”的意思。affect指“产生的影响之大足以引起反应”,着重“影响”的动作,有时含有“对……产生不利影响”的意思,如:This article will affect my thinking.这篇文章将会影响我的思想。effect指“实现、达成”,着重“造成”一种特殊的效果,如:This book effected a change in my opinion.这本书使我的看法起了变化。
