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. Earthquakes are a serious concern in major cities such as Tokyo, Mexico City, Los Angeles and San Francisco which lie on or near earthquake faults.

Seismologists still cannot accurately predict the timing of earthquakes, but they can identify areas which are subject to seismic risk. Education of the population about the dangers of the earthquakes and what to do in the event one occurs are important in【C10】______damage.

M)side N)property O)originate
【C3】
选项
