Living with a Volcano


I read a book “Living with a Volcano” today. The book also is kind of national geographic. I have never seen a volcano in my life. Of course, I have seen volcano news on TV. It looked like an amazing as powerful fireworks. I knew that it’s a small group of scientists who have watching Mount Etna their life’s work. They called volcanologists. Mount Etna is more than 10,000 feet high. That is as high as Mount Fuji in Japan. I thought the volcanologists risk theirs life for working. A few people say volcano is beautiful, but I don’t think so because volcano is often so dangerous. I heard lots of people injured for the far past.
I was also surprised that Mount Etna is always changing. Lava shot a quarter of a mile into the air. Huge black clouds of smoke and ash erupted out of the crater, as gases from deep within the earth were released. I felt again the nature is so big. So we have to living together.
