They can release hot lava, ash clouds and poisonous gases, bringing great danger to humans and the environment. However, humans have developed ways to deal with them over time. In Iceland, a country with many active volcanoes, people have learned to live with volcanic activities. Scientists monitor volcanoes closely using advanced technology. They can predict eruptions days or even weeks in advance, giving people enough time to evacuate. For example, in 2010, the Eyjafjallajökull volcano erupted. Thanks to early warnings, no one was killed, though air travel across Europe was disrupted for weeks. In Indonesia, another country with frequent volcanic eruptions, local communities have their own ways to stay safe. They build houses with strong materials that can resist ash fall. They also keep emergency kits at home, including food, water and masks. When a volcano shows signs of erupting, people move to higher ground quickly, following the routes planned in advance. Volcanic eruptions can be destructive, but with scientific monitoring and proper preparation, humans can reduce their impact and stay safe. 1. What is the main idea of the passage? A. How volcanoes form and erupt B. The damage caused by volcanic eruptions C. How humans respond to volcanic eruptions D. The most active volcanoes around the world 2. How do scientists in Iceland predict volcanic eruptions? A. By watching local weather changes B. By using advanced monitoring technology C. By observing animal behaviors D.

They evacuated safely because of early warnings D. They built shelters on higher ground 4. What do Indonesian communities keep at home for emergencies? A. Advanced monitoring tools B. Emergency kits with food and water C. Maps of evacuation routes D. Medical equipment 5. What can we infer from the passage? A. Volcanic eruptions can be completely avoided B. Humans can protect themselves from volcanic dangers C. Iceland has more volcanoes than Indonesia D.

Community Efforts: - Local governments build hurricane shelters in safe, high-ground locations. - Volunteers help distribute emergency supplies to those in need before and after the hurricane. - Communities organize training sessions to teach people how to use first-aid kits and follow evacuation routes.
