We’re starting today with a report on a major earthquake that struck Southern Asia yesterday. Its center, the point directly above the quake, was in northeastern Afghanistan. The force was felt in neighboring Pakistan and Tajikistan, as well as two countries over in India. Its level was 7.5, capable of huge damage.
But geologists say because its center was so deep, more than 130 miles below the surface, its effects were limited. Still, Afghan officials say more than 4,000 houses were severely damaged or destroyed and more than 200 people, mostly in Pakistan, were confirmed dead when we produced this show.
The quake hit a rural mountainous area. Some affected villages are hard for rescuers to reach. They also don’t have good basic constructions like solid bridges or reliable communications systems. So, that’s another challenge.
3. Why was the effect of the earthquake limited?
4. What was the consequence of the earthquake?
选项
A、More than 200 houses were destroyed.
B、More than 200 people were killed.
C、Pakistan was the only affected place.
D、No survivor was found in some affected villages.
答案
B
解析
新闻中提到地震造成的一系列后果,其中包括“超过200人被确认死亡”(more than 200 people…were confirmed dead),B与此完全一致。故正确。被毁房屋的数量应为超过4000个,A数字错误。C错在only,巴基斯坦并不是唯一受灾的地方,阿富汗(Afghanistan)和塔吉克斯坦(Tajikistan)也受到影响。D中的some affected villages在新闻末尾有出现,但只是说救援人员很难进入,而不是说“不能在这些村庄找到生还者”,D错误。
