Why do earthquakes happen?
The surface of the earth has not always looked as it does today; it is moving【C3】______ (although very slowly) and has done so for billions of years. This is one【C4】______of earthquakes, when one section of the earth (tectonic plate) 【C5】______another. Scientists can predict where but not【C6】______this might happen and the area between plates is called a fault line. On one fault line in Kobe, Japan in 1923 over 200, 000 people were killed. 【C7】______, earthquakes do not always happen on fault lines, 【C8】______is why they are so dangerous and 【C9】______.
Where do volcanoes happen?
Volcanoes happen where the earth’s【C10】______is thin: lava, dust and gases【C11】______from beneath the earth. They can rise into a huge cone shape like a mountain and erupt, 【C12】______they can be so violent【C13】______they just explode directly from the earth with no warning. There are 1511 "【C14】______" volcanoes in the world. This means that they may【C15】______be dangerous. In 1985 the Colombian volcano Nevado del Ruiz erupted. The lava melted a glacier and sent tones of mud【C16】______the town below. Twenty thousand people died.
Natural disasters like volcanic eruptions are often unpredictable. We regularly do not know when they【C17】______happen, or【C18】______where they will happen. In the future, scientists may be able to watch and predict【C19】______before they happen. This could【C20】______many lives. [br] 【C20】
选项
A、rescue
B、save
C、preserve
D、shelter
答案
B
解析
本句意为“在自然灾害发生前作出预测能挽救许多生命”,[B]save“救,拯救”,常与life搭配,意为“挽救生命”,故答案为[B]。[A]rescue指从危险、困境中搭救或救出某人或某物,其宾语为人或物,而不能是lives;[C]preserve“保存;保护”,其宾语为事物,不能与lives搭配;[D]shelter意为“遮蔽,庇护”,如避雨、脱险、免受攻击等,不符合语义。
