     Earthquakes are one of the most powerful natural forces on earth and regularly affect people around the
world. Unlike often equally damaging severe weather events such as hurricanes and tornadoes, earthquakes
can hit at any time. Earthquakes can also have a range of magnitudes (震级) with the strongest having
destructive consequences for the areas where they are centered, nearby areas, and even some far away areas
in the case of earthquake-created tsunamis (海啸).
     Until relatively recently, geologists and other scientists were not entirely sure what caused earthquakes.
Now with increasing technology, they are able to give more solid reasons for them.
     Earthquakes are defined as a shaking of the earth's surface that occurs after a release of energy in the
earth's crust (壳).
     Because the earth's crust is made up of numerous plates that are constantly moving slowly, shakings can
occur and result in small earthquakes. Most earthquakes are quite small so they are not readily felt. Larger
and more violent earthquakes are those that occur in a release of energy as the plates slide past or run into
one another.
     Large earthquakes can focus on the boundaries where two plates meet, but they are not limited to these
areas. As the plates move, breaks in the earth's crust develop and earthquakes are often located on them.
These breaks are referred to as faults, of which there are three types and all create earthquakes when they
move.
     In all of these faults, the most damaging earthquakes happen when the blocks of rock become locked
together due to the intense friction (摩擦) created when they move. As they continue attempting to move
once they are locked, pressure continues to build until it has enough energy to move the rock and the blocks
move, creating an earthquake.
     In addition to the main shaking created by an earthquake, there are often foreshocks and aftershocks.
Foreshocks generally increase in magnitude leading to the main earthquake, whereas aftershocks happen
_____ and decrease in strength.

阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后的字数要求）。

An American friend of mine who was high up in a big corporation had worked out a way of handling a flood of e-mails before most of us had even heard of the concept. If any information he was sent was vital enough, his lack of response could ensure the sender rang him up. If the sender wasn’t important enough to have his private number, the communication couldn’t be that important. My friend is now even more senior in the same company, so the strategy must work.

Almost every week now, there seems to be a report suggesting that we are all being driven crazy by the bother of e-mail. If this is the case, it’s only because we haven’t developed an appropriate discrimination in dealing with it.

______. Firstly, you junk anything with an exclamation mark or a string of capital letters, or from any address you don’t recognize or feel confident about.

Secondly, e-mails don’t all have to be answered. Because e-mailing is so easy, there’s a tendency for correspondence to carry on for ever, but it is permissible to stop an endless discussion or to accept a point of information sent by a colleague without acknowledging it.

Thirdly, a reply e-mail doesn’t have to be the same length as the original. We all have e-mail pals who send long, chatty e-mails, which are nice to receive, but who then expect an equally long reply. The charm of e-mail can consist in the simple, incomplete sentence, totally regardless of the format of the letter sent by post. You are perfectly within the bounds of politeness in responding to a marathon e-mail with a brief reply.

76. Which sentence in the passage it the closed in meaning to the following one?

The possible existence of annoyance results from our inability to sort out e-mails.

[3]Why is it that the more connected we get, ________________________ ? Every advance in communications technology is a hurt to the closeness of human interaction (互动). With e-mail and instant messaging over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone.
