短文第一段的第一句告诉我们，英国研究人员正在测试一种仪器，这种仪器可以通过监测土壤的振动来预警山崩。该段最后一句说，这种灾难经常在一些遭受自然灾害的国家发生，这些自然灾害包括<span word="sudden">sudden</span>，<span word="heavy">heavy</span> <span word="rainfall">rainfall</span>和<span word="earthquakes">earthquakes</span>以及<span word="water">water</span> <span word="erosion">erosion</span>。所以<span word="D">D</span>是正确选择。 <span word="C">C</span> 第三段的第一和第二句告诉我们，最为普通的监测山崩方法是对山坡形状变化的观察，有两种观察方式；第三句说，因为山坡形状的变化不一定导致山崩，所以两种方法都会有虚假的预警。因此，<span word="C">C</span>是正确答案。 <span word="B">B</span> <span word="positives">positives</span>在此用作名词，意思是：被证实的因素或特点，可以理解为证据。</p>
