Most earthquakes occur within the upper 15 miles of the earth’s surface. But earthquakes can and do occur at all 【C1】________to about 460 miles. Their number【C2】________as the depth increases.
At about 460 miles one earthquake occurs only every few years. Near the surface earthquakes may run as high as 100 times in a month, but the【C3】________average does not vary much.
【C4】________comparison with the total number of earthquakes each year, the number of 【C5】________earthquakes is very small.

选项
A、increases
B、reduces
C、decreases
D、adds
答案
C
解析
increase(增加);reduce(减少,缩小)为及物动词;decrease(减少)为不及物动词;add(增加)。下文提到在460英里深的地方地震每隔好几年才会发生一次,而地表附近每个月地震发生的次数高达100次。由此可知越往地表深处,地震发生的频率就越低。故C最符合语法和文意。
