Section I 缤纷自然篇2Passage 5In the sea there are many islands. In its warm waters there are some little ones.We call them “coral Islands”.A coral island is very nice to look at. It looks like a ring of land （ •圈阳i土 也 ）withtrees, grass, and flowers on it. One part of the ring is open to the water. There is alittle round lake inside the island.If you look into this lake, you will see beautiful coral. You say think they areflowers. If you look at a piece of coral, you will see many little holes in it. In each ofthese holes a very small sea animal has lived. These sea animals make the coral.They began to build under the water. Year after year, the coral grew higher andhigher. At last it grew out of the water.Then the sea brought it small trees and something else. After some years, thesethings changed into earth. Sometimes the wind brought seeds （ 种子）to this earth.Sometimes birds flew over it and brought seeds to the island.The little seeds grew. In a few years there were plants all over the island.

Houses fall, people are killed or hurt, and sometimes the whole villages orcities are destroyed.Can we do something to keep ourselves safe from earthquakes? Scientists havestudied earthquakes and make maps that show the "earthquake belts”. In areas （ 地区）in these belts, it's possible for earthquakes to happen. In these areas we should buildstrong houses to fight against earthquakes.In the future, scientists will be able to tell when and where an earthquake will bebefore they happen.

As the earth turns around every twenty-four hours, first one half faces the sunand then the other half. When our half of the earth is facing the sun, we say it is "day”.When our half is away from the sun, we say it is “night”.
