The destruction of Agadir is an example of_________

单选题 The destruction of Agadir is an example of__________

A．faulty building construction
B．an earthquake's strength
C．widespread panic in earthquakes
D．ineffective instruments

参考答案A

解析: A。本题的出题点在举例处。根据题干信息词Agadir定位到原文第二段。第二段首先举例说明运用不同的建筑方法和材料所修建的房屋的抗震能力是不同的，然后就提到了发生在摩洛哥Agadir的地震虽然震级不大，却摧毁了整个城市，而许多更强烈的地震所造成的损失却很小，由此作者得出结论：如果建筑物修建得好并且建在坚固的地面上，那么它的抗震性就比较好；地震中大多数的死亡是由于不良的建筑结构或不当的建筑地点造成的，由此可知作者引用Agadir的毁灭主要是想说明不良的建筑结构 (faulty．building construction)危害，故A为正确答案。
