Passage: What Causes Earthquakes

Natural earthquakes occur mostly from tectonic movements of the plates. Tectonic plates are large parts of the oceanic and continental lithosphere. The lithosphere is the solid outer section of Earth's crust. These sometimes shift into various positions both underwater and above. Such movements generally occur along fault lines. When two rocks slide against each other, they create fault lines. These fault lines can be both extremely narrow or miles wide. Fault lines are created mostly in mountainous regions where plate tectonic movements are more likely. Movement between the tectonic plates is rarely smooth. When the plates slide against each other, they create a tremendous amount of friction. This friction forms seismic energy that travels in waves through the surface of the Earth. This causes the earthquake. While normal energy travels above the surface of the Earth, seismic energy travels under the Earth's surface. This creates more tension between the land plates, causes more shifting, and creates more fault lines. The spot below the Earth's surface where the rocks break against each other is called the focus of the earthquake. The place exactly above the focus on the surface of the planet is called the epicenter of the earthquake.
Sometimes, earthquakes can also be man-made instead of natural. These can sometimes be caused due to explosions underground. Explosions big enough to cause a shift in the surface of the Earth are generally caused in mining tunnels or during nuclear testing. But the seismic energy formed due to these explosions is rarely very strong. Therefore, the strength of the earthquakes caused is not very high.


Question: Which fact could be added to the passage to help the reader understand where most natural earthquakes occur?

A.

Earthquakes can happen in any part of the world.

B.

Drilling for oil, damming water, and mining for coal can trigger earthquakes.

C.

The majority of all earthquakes occur in an area called the "Ring of Fire," which is along the rim of the Pacific Ocean.

D.

Earthquakes can cause landslides, avalanches, and tsunamis.

50 POINTS + bRAINLIST IF ALL ARE ANSWERED
1. Read the excerpts from "opening statements from John F. Kennedy and Richard M. Nixon First Televised Debate."

Kennedy: Therefore, I think the question before the American people is: Are we doing as much as we can do? Are we as strong as we should be? Are we as strong as we must be if we're going to maintain our independence, and if we're going to maintain and hold out the hand of friendship to those who look to us for assistance, to those who look to us for survival? I should make it very clear that I do not think we're doing enough, that I am not satisfied as an American with the progress that we're making.

Nixon: Let's look at the record. Is the United States standing still? Is it true that this Administration, as Senator Kennedy has charged, has been an Administration of retreat, of defeat, of stagnation? . . . let's put it in terms of the average family. What has happened to you? We find that your wages have gone up five times as much in the Eisenhower Administration as they did in the Truman Administration. . . . Now, this is not standing still.

Which statement best compares or contrasts Nixon's and Kennedy's positions on the average American's economic position?


Kennedy thinks that the government is doing as much as it can for most Americans, while Nixon argues that the government should do even more.

Kennedy believes that too many Americans rely on government handouts, while Nixon thinks that fewer and fewer people are doing so.

Kennedy believes that friendship is the key to economic success, while Nixon thinks economic success depends on hard work.

Kennedy believes that economic progress for most Americans has been slow, while Nixon believes good progress has been made.

It suggests that virtually all wars are accompanied by periods of famine.

It makes the assumption that famine is always a result of human actions.

It implies that only poor, war-torn countries are likely to suffer from famine.

3.







Item 3
Refer to the Newsela article "The Relationship between Hunger and War."

In the article, what is the author’s viewpoint on war and famine?


Wars often cause famine and can make existing famine worse.

Wars are usually followed by periods of famine, so eliminating war will end famine.

War and famine are intertwined problems, so they must be addressed at the same time.

Famine conditions may improve during wartime because food prices decrease.
