31、n.In 1556 in China,the deadliest earthquake in history killed 830 000 people.But many other earthquakes have caused the deaths of more than 100 000 people,and it is not unusual,even in modern times,for an earthquake death toll to reach 20 000 to 30 000 people with hundreds of thousands left homeless

32、.There are four factors that affect the casualty rate and economic impact of earthquakes:magnitude,location,quality of construction of buildings,and timing.MagnitudeThe magnitude,or strength,of an earthquake is measured on the Richter scale,ranging from 1 to 10,with 10 being the greatest.Earthquakes

37、 can affect the number of deaths and casualties.Earthquakes that occur in the night,when people are indoors,usually cause a greater death toll than ones that occur when people are outdoors.,timing,timing,n.the time when someone does something or when something happens,especially when you are conside
