【单选题】The very high temperatures attained in a nuclear explosion result in the formation of an extremely hot intense mass of gas called a fireball. For a l0-kiloton (千吨,核弹当量单位) explosion in the air, the fireball will attain a maximum diameter of about 300m; for a l0-megaton (兆吨,核弹当量单位) weapon the fireball may be 4.8 km across.
A、flash of heat radiation is emitted from the fireball and spreads out over a large area, but with steadily decreasing intensity. The amount of heat energy received a certain distance from the nuclear explosion depends on the power of the weapon and the state of the atmosphere. If the visibility is poor or the explosion takes place above clouds, the effectiveness of the heat flash is decreaseD、The heat radiation falling on exposed skin can cause what called flash burns.
A、10-kiloton explosion in the air can produce moderate (second-degree) flash burns, which require some medical attention, as far as 2.4 km from ground zero; for a 10-megaton bomb, the corresponding distance would be more than 32 km. milder burns of bare skin would be experienced even farther out. Most ordinary clothing provides protection from the heat radiation, as does almost any opaque (不透明的) object. Flash burns occur only when the bare skin is directly exposed, or if the clothing is too thin to absorb the heat radiation.
The heat radiation can start fires in dry, flammable materials, for example, paper and some fabrics, and such fires may spread if conditions are suitable. The evidence from theA-bomb explosions over Japan indicates that many fires, especially in the area near ground zero, originated from secondary causes, such as electrical short circuits, broken gas lines, and upset furnaces and boilers in industrial plants. The blast damage produced wreckage that helped to maintain the fires and denied access to fire-fighting equipment. Thus, much of the fire damage in Japan was a secondary effect to the blast wave.
Under some conditions, such as existed at Hiroshima but not at Nagasaki, many individual fires can combine to produce a fire storm similar to those that accompany some large forest fires. The heat of the fire causes a strong updraft (向上排气), which produces strong winds drawn in toward the center of the burning are
A、These winds fan the flame and convert the area into a disaster in which everything flammable is destroyeD、
According to the passage, which is most likely the greatest danger with an atomic bomb
A、The direct exposure to heat radiation.
B.The fast spread of the fireball.
C.The absorption of heat in the clothing.
D.The secondary effect to the blast wave.

[定位] 由题干中的the greatest danger定位到第二段最后一句Thus, much of the fire damage in Japan was a secondary effect to the blast wave. [精析] 推理判断题【考频:68】。文章在描写完热辐射对皮肤的伤害后,说只要是普通的衣物就可以保护我们不受伤害,所以,核爆炸造成的直接损失并不是最大的,而其引发的火灾却更为惊人。所以,最大的危险在于二次破坏。 [避错] 原文说只要在一定距离外,直接暴露在外的皮肤仅会受到“中度、轻度”灼伤,故排除A);火球本身形成后就不会扩散,故B)错误,排除;C)衣物吸收热能会对皮肤起到保护的作用,而不是伤害,故排除。 document.getElementById("warp").style.display="none"; document.getElementById("content").style.display="block"; 查看试题解析出处>>
