Answer:

This type of disaster is classified as a mass casualty incident.

Explanation:

Mass Casualty Incident (MCI) is the type of event that involves a large number of victims. However, there is no specific number to classify it. What is important is that the number of victims demands a response that is beyond normal standards, that is, a response that needs more resources than there are available.

The situation described in the question is an example of MCI. According to the description, several people are to be transported to local emergency departments. It is likely that the arrival of several injured people at the same time will overwhelm the system. Perhaps there will not be enough doctors, nurses, or equipment available to help everyone at the same time.

The fleet with the wedding party on board sailed southward on the China Sea. It was a long and perilous voyage. Stops were made
Marta_Voda [28]
The best answer here is choice B. We can determine this because of the tense used throughout the passage itself. Bearing this in mind, choice B matches the tense perfectly. 

Choice A does not work at all because the verb "am" makes no sense in the context of the sentence. The same is true for choice C. The passage is not in present tense, so it cannot be this choice. Choice D could make sense, except that this is in the future tense versus the past tense.
