They are the Earth's natural means ofreleasing pressure. More than a million occur in the world eachyear. Earthquakes can be felt over large areas although theyusually last less than a minute. However, earthquakes cannot bepredicted although scientists are still working on the problem.There are about 20 plates along the surface of the earth thatmove continuously and slowly past each other. When the platessqueeze or stretch, huge rocks form at their edges and the rocksshift with great force, causing an earthquake. As the plates movethey put forces on themselves and each other. When the force islarge enough, the crust is forced to break..Shaking and ground breaking are the main effects created byearthquakes, principally resulting in more or less severe damage tobuildings and other structures. The severity of the effect dependson the complex combination of the earthquake magnitude. Groundbreak is a major risk for large engineering structures such as dams, bridges and nuclear power stations and requires careful mapping ofexisting faults to identify any likely to break the ground surfacewithin the life of the structure.Task 11- The above reading is mainly abouta. the destruction caused by earthquakes b. protectingpeople from earthquakesc. describing a violent earthquake d. why and whereearthquakes occur2- Earthquake are considered natural disaster becausea. they are man-madeb. man has nocontrol over themc. man can control themd. they arealways expected3- What does the shaking of the ground result in?a- damage to buildings and structuresreleasing energy into airc-breaking and shifting of rocksd- all ofthe above4.

Koala is a cute Australian animal, napominayushy teddy bear. Some even call it a "Koala Bear", but the name is incorrect, as the koala has nothing obshego with bears. Most of the photos taken in the reserve koala wildlife on Phillip Island, near Melburna.Koala this lazy creature, he sleeps about 20 hours a day. Koala eats many species of eucalyptus leaves, which nesedobny for most other animals. The word "Koala" comes from the dictionary of Aboriginal, it means "do not drink." It's amazing, but the koala actually gets moisture from eucalyptus leaves and so does not need to drink. Otherwise, for the slow-moving koalas would be too difficult, if not impossible, to get here from the forest to the source of fresh vody.Trudno believe that 100 years ago was the koala to extinction. People almost completely destroyed these lovely animals for valuable fur. Now koala is secure, and from year to year, there are more. Koala is not so common animal like a kangaroo, and they are not so often seen in the wild form. Nevertheless, there are many places where koalas are found in abundance, such as Otway National Park in Victoria, and Kangaroo Island in South Australia. It is curious that koalas are not found in Tasmania and Western Australia. Koala - Smaller-bodied beast: the length of his body 60-82 cm, weight from 5 to 16 kg. The tail is very short, not visible from the outside. The head is large and broad, with a flattened "face". The ears are large, rounded, covered with thick fur. The eyes are small. Nasal bridge hairless black. There cheek pouches. The coat is a koala thick and soft, durable, back color changes from light gray to dark gray, sometimes reddish or reddish belly lighter. Limbs koalas are adapted to climbing - thumb and index finger and the front limbs are opposed to others that allows the animal to grasp the branches of trees. The nails are strong and sharp, capable of withstanding the weight of the animal. On the thumb hind claw missing.
