After the world suffered major crises in 2008, the concept of risk management has gained【C4】______in international development. The links between risk, livelihoods and poverty are all too clear. Mounting evidence shows that【C5】______shocks—above all, health and weather shocks and economic crises—play a major role in pushing households below the poverty line and keeping them there.

A)forecasting B)prominence C)optimum D)vulnerable

M)potentially N)primarily O)characteristics [br] 【C3】
选项
答案
M
解析
rare和…disastrous并列修饰名词events,此处需要副词修饰disastrous。副词potentially“潜在地;可能地”符合句意,与anticipate“预测”在语义上呼应,potentially disastrous events意为“可能造成灾难的事件”。
