问题 The House of the Gladiators was built [br]  
The 2,000-year-old House of the Gladiators in the ruins of ancient Pompeii in southern Italy has collapsed. Pompeii, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, was destroyed by an eruption of Mount Vesuvius back in 79 AD.
    No one was injured in the collapse which occurred at dawn and was discovered by guards when they arrived for work. The area was closed to tourists. The building excavated from the volcanic ash, which destroyed Pompeii in 79 AD, was damaged by Allied bombs during the Second World War. Part of it was covered by a heavy modern concrete roof built in the 1950s, which was weakened by rain infiltration.
选项 A、volcanic eruption.
B、artificial damage.
C、earthquake.
D、rain penetration.
答案 C
解析 细节判断题。新闻中指出，公元79年维苏威火山爆发，摧毁了庞贝古城，在火山灰里挖掘出来的“战士之家”二战时曾被炮火损毁，在20世纪50年代该建筑的一部分被重型现代混凝土覆盖保护着，但雨水渗透导致其不再坚固。选项A、B、D都与新闻报道相符，本题为反选题．故答案是C。
