问题 The south of Iceland is always ______ to earthquakes.
选项 A、bound
B、likely
C、liable
D、apt
答案 C
解析 四个选项都可接to，但意义不同。be bound to do sth．一定会做某事。如：He’s bound to refuse．他必定拒绝；be likely to do sth．有可能做某事。如：He is not likely to come．他不见得会来；be apt to do sth．易于做某事，有做某事的倾向，如：Food is apt to deteriorate in summer．食物在夏天容易变质；be liable to do sth．倾向于做某事，易于……如：She is liable to fly into fits of temper．她总是易于大发雷霆。但 be liable to还可接名词或名词短语，意为“有……危险的，易遭受……的”。如 He is liable to heart attacks．他容易犯心脏病。本题意为“冰岛南部常常遭受地震”。
