A recent investigation by scientists at the US Geological Survey shows that strange animal behavior might help predict future earthquake.
Investigators found such occurrences in a ten-kilometer radius of the center of a fairly recent quake. Some birds screeched and flew about wildly. Dogs yelped and ran uncontrollably.
Scientists believe that animals can perceive these environmental changes as early as several days before the disaster.
In 1976 after observing animal behavior, the Chinese were able to predict a terrible quake. Although hundreds of thousands of people were killed, the government was able to evacuate millions of people and thus keep the death toll at a lower rate.
Which of the following statements is not true ?
A. Some animals may be able to sense an approaching earthquake.
B. All birds and dogs in the ten-kilometer radius of an earthquake center become wild before the quake.
C. The Chinese have successfully predict an earthquake and saved many lives.
D. By observing animal behavior scientists perhaps can predict earthquake.
