Large numbers of people pay【C2】______sums of money to an insurance company. Although thousands of people have paid for fire insurance, only【C3】______will lose their homes by fire.

In 1759, Benjamin Franklin helped start【C8】______new insurance. This company, which offered life insurance, collected some money regularly from different men. Although a man died, his family was given a large sum of money. Today, this company is still in business.
Over me years, people have【C9】______from many new kinds of insurance when they have suffered from such accidents as car, plane crashes. Tomorrow, almost everyone has【C10】______kind of insurance.
【C5】
选项
A、injured
B、hurt
C、destroyed
D、harmed
答案
C
解析
destroy表示“破坏,毁坏,消灭”,程度较深,一般无法挽救;injure通常指“人受伤”;hurt往往指“(人心理、感情)受到伤害”;harm“损害,伤害”,但此词比destroy程度轻很多。1666年伦敦的那场大火在历史上都是罕见的,所以该用destroyed。
