Scientists have known a lot about the earth. They understand how mountains are made and what a volcano is. The following example is about volcanic eruptions. Mr.Vesuvius in Italy and Mr. St. Helens in the USA are both famous mountains. They are both volcanoes. A volcano is a mountain that is open at the top. Smoke and hot air come out of the hole. Sometimes very hot rock also comes out of the mountain. That can make trouble for people nearby. This is what happened with Mt.Vesuvius and Mr.St.Helens.Hot rock poured out of Mt. Vesuvius and covered the town of Pompeii in 79 AD. Everyone in the town was killed. The Mt.Helens volcano didn’t kill many people.
There were no cities close to the mountain. But the hot rock killed a large part of the forest.And a lot of dirt fell on cities many miles away. Today there are still many difficult questions who study the earth. They do not know when a volcano will send hot rock into the air. They still are not sure about the inside of the earth.

Listening text:
Are you looking for a cheap, clean, effective source of power that doesn’t cause pollution or waste natural resources? Look no further than solar energy from our sun. At present, most of our electricity comes from the use of coal, gas, oil, or nuclear power. This power could be provided by the sun. One percent of the solar energy that reaches the Earth is enough to provide power for the total population.
Many countries are already using solar energy. Solar panels are placed on the roof of a house and the Sun’s energy is used to heat water. The energy can be stored for a number of days, so on cloudy days you can use solar energy too.
