Then mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET by blackening the corresponding letter in the brackets(40 points) Passage 1 Earthquakes may rightly be ranked as one of the most devastating forces known to man: since records began to be written down, it has been estimated that earthquake-related fatalities have numbered in the millions, and that earthquake-related destruction has been beyond calculation. The greater part of such damage and loss of life has been due to collapse of buildings and the effects of rockslides, floods, fire, disease, tsunamis(gigantic sea waves), and other phenomena resulting from earthquakes, rather than from the quakes themselves The great majority of all earthquakes occur in two specific geographic areas. One such area encompasses the Pacific Ocean and its contiguous land masses. The other extends from the east Indies to the Atlas Mountains, including the Himalayas, Iran, Turkey, and the Alpine regions. It is in these wo great bel ts or zones that ninety percent of all earthquakes take place; they may, however, happen anywhere at any time. This element of the unknown has for centuries added greatly to the dread and horror surrounding earthquakes, but in recent times there have been indications that earthquake predication may be possible. By analyzing changes in animal behavior, patterns of movements in the earths crust, variations in the force of gravity and the earths magnetic field, and the frequency with which minor earth tremors(Rih)are observed, scientists have shown increasing success in anticipating when and where earthquakes will strike. As a result, a wor ldwide earthquake warning network is already in operation and has helped to prepare for (and thus lessen)the vast destruction that might otherwise have been totally unexpected. It is doubtful that man will ever be able to control earthquakes and eliminate their destructiveness altogether, but as how and why earthquakes happen become better understood, man will become more and more able to deal with their potential devastation before it occurs. Based on what you have just read, which of the following is true? A)Earthquakes are highly feared, but actually relatively harmless. B)There is absolutely no way to predict when or where earthquakes might occur. C)Man is now able to predict when earthquakes will happen, but not where D)Man is now able to predict where earthquakes will happen, but not when. What is the probable meaning of contiguous (line 9)? A)underwater
