Japan is one of them, while others do not have many, for example, there are few earthquakes in Britain.\nThere is often a great noise during an earthquake. The ground vibrates .Houses fall down. Railways are broken, which causes trains to turn over. Sometimes thousands of people are killed in different ways. About 60,000 were killed in 1783 in the south of Italy. Some people say that earthquakes often happen near volcanoes , but it is not true. The centres of some earthquakes are under the sea. The bottom of the sea suddenly moves. The powerful forces inside the earth break the rocks. The coast is shaken and great waves appear. These waves travel long distances and rush over the land when they reach it, breaking down houses and other buildings. Sometimes they break more buildings than the earthquake itself.\nA terrible earthquake happened in Assam, India, in 1986.The land near Shillong suddenly moved 1.5 feet to one side, and then back again. It continued to act like this 20 times a minute.Few buildings could stand what was happening and the great stones flew four feet up into the air. What kind of building stays up best in an earthquake? The Americans carefully studied the results of the earthquake at San Francisco(1906) and believed it best for buildings to be made with concrete walls together by steel frames. Such are the buildings that can't burn or fall easily.\n\n<question>:\nThe best title of this passage should be _ .\n\n<options>:\nA The Centres of Earthquakes\nB Earthquakes\nC The Loss Caused by Earthquakes\nD Buildings and Earthquakes\n\n<answer>:\n",

These deaf people couldn't use a spoken language.\nBut beginning in the 1700s, the deaf were taught a special language. Using this language, they could share thoughts and ideas with others. The language they used was a language without sound. It was a sign language.\nHow did this sign language work? The deaf learnt to make certain movements with their hands, faces and bodies. These movements stood for things and ideas. People might move their forefingers across their lips. This meant \"you are not telling the truth\". They might tap their chin with three fingers. This meant \"my uncle\".\nThe deaf learned to see a finger alphabet. They used their fingers to make the letters of the alphabet. In this way, they spelled out words. Some deaf people could spell out words at a speed of 130 words per minute.\nThe deaf don't use the sign language and finger spelling as much as they once were. Today, the deaf learn to understand others by watching their lips. They also learn how to speak.\n\n<question>:\nWhich of the sentences is wrong?\n\n<options>:\nA The sign language and finger spelling are not used as much as they once were.\nB Today, the deaf are taught to understand others by watching their lips.\nC The deaf might tap their chin with three fingers.

Tuhao has\nin Western countries, too, to describe similar people in their countries.\nThe adoption of the word by foreign countries is an example of China's spreading influence in the world not just economically, but also socially and culturally. People are paying attention to what is happening in China and are picking up some Chinese words in the process, especially those words that express unique Chinese ideas that cannot be easily translated into English.\nThe OED is also thinking of adding hukou and dama to the already 120 Chinese words in its dictionary. Hukou refers to China's system of residency permits and dama refers to middle-aged Chinese women whose gold buying habits influence the global gold markets. The news that the OED was adding these words has met with some criticism . Some people say the words embarrass China, but others insist that in a globalized society it's natural for words to spread and be adopted elsewhere. In fact, a word like tuhao expresses the humor of China. It's easy to pronounce and very accurate at poking fun at rich people who have more money than taste.\n\n<question>:\n_ may be adopted in the Oxford English Dictionary in 2014 according to the passage.\n\n<options>:\nA Tuhao\nB Hukou\nC Dama\nD All above\n\n<answer>:\n",
