根据以下内容回答题:Earthquakes may rightly be ranked as one of the most destructive forces

known to man:since reeords began to be written down,it has been estimated that earthquake-related fatalities(死亡)have numbered in the millions,and that earthquake-related destruction has been be-vond calculation.The greater part of such damage and loss of life has been due to falling down of buildings and the effects of rockslides,floods,fire,disease,gigantic sea waves,and other phenomena(现象)resulting from earthquakes,rather than from the quakes themselves. The great majority of all earthquakes occur Off two specific areas,along the coasts of the Pacific Ocean and from the East Indies to the Atlas Mountains.But they may,however,happen anywhere at any time. This element of the unknown has for centuries added greatly to the fear and horror sur-rounding earthquakes,but in recent times there have been indications that earthquake predic-tion may be possible.By analyzing changes in animal behavior,patterns of movements in the earth’S surface.and other unusual phenomena,scientists have shown increasing Success in pre-dicting when and where earthquakes will strike.As a result,a worldwide earthquake-warning network is already in operation and has helped to prepare for the vast destruction that mightotherwise have been totally unexpected. It is.doubtful,that man will ever be able to control earthquakes and do away with the destructiveness altogether。but as how.and why earthquakes happen become better understood,man will become more and more able to deal with their possible destruction before it occurs.

Most destruction caused by earthquakes is the results of the following EXCEPT__________ .

A.the collapsing of buildings and the fire it causes’

B.the floods and huge sea waves resulting from earthquakes.

C.the disease that often follows earthquakes

D.the panic brought about by earthquakes

根据以下内容回答题:

A tid.al wave is a very large and very destructive wall of water that rushes in from the ocean toward the shore.Many scientists call these huge waves tsunami(海啸).In Japanese tsunami means“storm wave”0r“tide”.But do you know that tidal waves are not caused bv storms and that they are not true tides at all?A true tide is the regular rise and fall of ocean waters,at def-inite times each day.But a tidal wave comes rushing in suddenly and unexpectedly.A tidal wave is caused by an underwater earthquake.Scientists call the underwater earthquake a seaquake.The word“seaquake”is made up of two words.the word’“sea”which means“ocean”and the word“quake”.To quake means“to shake”or“to tremble”.When a seaquake takes place at the bottom of the ocean,the ocean floor shakes and trembles,and sometimes the ocean floor shifts.It is this shifting that produces the tidal wave.The tidal wave begins to move across the sea at great speed. Tidal waves have taken many human lives in the past.Today scientists can predict when a tidal wave will hit land.They use a seismograph to do this.A seismograph is an instrument that records the strength,the direction,and the length of time of an earthquake or seaquake.It is not possible to hold back a tidal wave,but it is possible to warn people that a tidal wave is coming.This warning can save many lives.

According to the article,what causes a tidal wave?

A.The rise and fall of ocean water at regular times.

B.Seaquakes.

C.Storm.

D.The great speed of the ocean waves.

根据以下内容回答题:Last December"s earthquakes in the Iranian city of Bam took a huge deat
h toll—roughly 40,000 people——largely because of the collapse of thousands of mud—brick buildings.If a group of researchers in India are successful,the next earthquake might not be as destructive.British and Indian engineers are developing earthquake—proof housing using a cheap,universal material:bamboo. Thev designed a model house built around waterproof bamboo-sheet roofing and bamboo-reinforced concrete walls.To test the structure,the engineers,sponsored by the U.K.Depart-ment of qnternational Development,took it to the Earthquake Engineering and Vibration Re-search Centre in Bangalore,which has a state.of-the-art earthquake simulator(模拟装置).The researchers shook the house with five successive 30-second pulses,being equal to 7.8 on the Richter(里氏)scale.The simulation was more than 10 times as violent as the Bam earth-quake.yet the house emerged undamaged.“We didn’t even crack the paint,”says engineer Paul Follett.of Britain’s Timber Research and Development Association. By some estimates,more than a binion people already live in bamboo structures.The innovation lies in developing ways to exploit bamboo’S spring.Easily pre-built,fire resistant,and far lighter than steel,bamboo.based structures could be assembled in three weeks and last 50 vears.At five dollars a square foot,they would last roughly half as much as brick-and-block constructions.Follett says the project will follow an“open source”model:“Whatever is developed is freely available for the common good.”

Thousands of people died in the Bam earthquake mainly because__________ .

A.the earthquake occurred in the cold December

B.many mud.brick houses collapsed

C.the earthquake reached 7.8 0n the Richter scale

D.bamboo houses hadn’t been built yet
