1. What are the causes of earthquake?
2. What can people do when there is an earthquake?
3. Do you think scientists can detect an earthquake? If so, how do they do it?
4. Where have earthquakes occurred?
5. Why do these countries have earthquakes?
6. Do you think there will be an earthquake in Singapore? Why?

The tectonic plates, are puzzle pieces which bump together causing an earthquake. People can run away when there is an earthquake. I think scientist can detect an earthquake using a machine called "Seismograms". Earthquakes occured in China, near the coast of Peru and on Vancouver Island in Canada. I think they occured there because there was some activity there and it caused the earthquake. I don't think there will be an earthquake in Singapore because we are very tiny.
