    • The first blank needs a word to describe the level of infrastructural damage. Since the context implies resilience, minimal (meaning very small in amount) is the most fitting word.

    Therefore, the sentence highlights Chile's successful disaster preparedness, leading to minimal infrastructural damage and no attributable casualties , even from powerful quakes. Admissible means able to be admitted or allowed, especially in a legal context. Advisories are official warnings or announcements.
