III. Read the text carefully, and then choose the correct answer.
A recent investigation by scientists at the U.S. Geological Survey shows that

strange animal behavior might help predict future earth-quakes. Investigators found
such occurrences in a ten-kilometer radius of the epicenter of a fairly recent quake.
Some birds screeched and flew about wildly; dogs yelped and ran around
uncontrollably.
Scientists believe that animals can perceive these environmental changes as early
as several days before the mishap. In 1976 after observing animal behavior, the
Chinese were able to predict a devastating quake. Although hundreds of thousands of
people were killed, the government was able to evacuate millions of other people and
thus keep the death toll at a lower level.

C The Chinese have successfully predicted an earthquake and saved many lives.
D All birds and dogs in a ten-kilometer radius of the epicenter vent wild before the
earthquake
