Every year throughout the world【C1】______6,000 earthquakes are detected. The vast majority of these are【C2】______too small or too far from populated areas to be felt. Several hundred, however, are felt and the majority of these, while frightening, are relatively harmless. A small number of earthquakes, however, are severe enough to cause serious damage to【C3】______as well as injuries and even deaths.

【C3】
