IV. Read the paragraph carefully, then answer the following questions(3ms) 
Earthquakes: 
Ninety percent of earthquakes occur around the Pacific Rim, which is known as the ‘Ring of Fire’. 
In 1995, a huge earthquake struck the city of Kobe in Japan. A large number of people were killed when 
homes, office blocks and highways collapsed. 
Tidal waves: 
Tidal waves are the result of an abrupt shift in the underwater movement of the earth. In the 1960s, 
a huge tidal wave hit Anchorage, Alaska. The tidal wave traveled from Alaska to California! 
Typhoons: 
When a tropical storm reaches 120 kilometers per hour, it is called a hurricane in North and South 
America, a cyclone in Australia, and a typhoon in Asia. The word ‘typhoon’ comes from China: tai means 
‘big’ and feng means ‘wind’, so the word ‘typhoon’ means ‘big wind’. 
Volcanoes: 
We can usually predict when volcano will erupt. Mount Pinatubo, which is a volcano in the 
Philippines, erupted in 1991. It was the world’s largest volcanic eruption in more than 50 years. Hundreds 
of people died, but thousands were saved because scientists had warned them about the eruption.
