上一題
        Many people depend on volcanoes for their survival. The geothermal energy of a volcano can power technological systems for nearby communities. Soil near active volcanoes is often rich in mineral deposits and provides excellent farming opportunities. Lots of people visit volcanoes each year, so jobs often pop up nearby in hotels, restaurants, gift shops, and as tour guides. And some people simply do not have the financial resources to move. 
        Many residents of the area around Kilauea may also think it’s worth the risk, given the beauty, community, and remoteness of Hawaii. Volcanoes also tend to give notice that something is about to happen—Kilauea’s small earthquakes, increasing amounts of lava at the summit, and a change in the slope of the volcano all indicated in recent weeks that an eruption may happen soon. This isn’t necessarily the case in other parts of the world, where earthquakes, tornadoes, fires, and floods can spring up without warning. 
        The evacuation of nearby communities because of Kilauea’s eruption isn’t the only instance in recent months of people leaving their homes to get out of the path of an erupting volcano. When Mount Mayon in the Philippines began spewing ash into the air in January, tens of thousands of people needed to evacuate. Over 100,000 people in northeast Bali were evacuated in November when Indonesia’s Mount Agung began rumbling, and thousands of tourists also fled.

火山也往往會發出即將發生的事情的通知——基拉韋厄的小地震、山頂熔岩量的增加以及火山坡度的變化都表明最近幾周可能會發生噴發。在世界其他地方，情況不一定如此，在那里地震、龍捲風、火災和洪水可能會在沒有警告的情況下...
