One of the worst things that can happen on our earth is an earthquake. When earthquakes happen near large 
cities, many people may be killed and many buildings are knocked down. Fires may start and do more damage than 
the quake itself. Earthquake comes from a shaking of the rocks under the surface of the earth. Force within the earth 
push against the rocks until they break. Sometimes, the earth above the break will split open. We cannot tell when 
an earthquake is coming, but we can know the places on the earth where they happen most often. Much damage is 
stopped by building stronger buildings in these places. As many as a million earthquakes may happen in a year, but 
most of them do no damage because they happen under the sea.
