Drought, tsunami, violent crime, financial meltdown—the world is full of risks. The poor are often most【C1】______to their effects. Instead of【C2】______responding to crises, aid workers and policymakers should anticipate and help to guard against such rare and【C3】______disastrous events.
After the world suffered major crises in 2008, the concept of risk management has gained【C4】______in international development. The links between risk, livelihoods and poverty are all too clear. Mounting evidence shows that【C5】______shocks—above all, health and weather shocks and economic crises—play a major role in pushing households below the poverty line and keeping them there.

A)forecasting B)prominence C)optimum D)vulnerable
E)guidelines F)motivate G)simply H)risk

M)potentially N)primarily O)characteristics [br] 【C9】
选项
答案
