Scientists who study the Earth tell us that the continents and ocean floors are always moving. Continents move about the Earth like huge ships at sea. They float on pieces of the Earth s outer skin, or crust. New crust is created as melted rock pushes up from inside the planet. Old crust is destroyed as it rolls down into the hot area and melts again. Sometimes, this movement is violent and might result in great destruction.Only since the nineteen-sixties have scientists begun to understand that theEarth is a great, living structure. Some experts say this new understanding is one of the most important revolutions in scientific thought.The revolution is based on the work of scientists who study the movement of the continents—a process called plate tectonics(构造学). Earthquakes are a result of that process. Plate tectonics is the area of science that explains why the surface of the Earth changes and how those changes cause earthquakes.Scientists say the surface of the Earth is cracked like a giant eggshell. They call the pieces tectonic plates. As many as twenty of them cover the Earth. The plates float about slowly, sometimes crashing into each other, and sometimes moving away from each other. When the plates move, the continents move with them. Sometimes the continents are above two plates. The continents split as the plates move.Tectonic plates can cause earthquakes as they move. Modern instruments show that about ninety percent of all earthquakes take place along a few lines in several places around the Earth. These lines follow underwater mountains where hot liquid rock flows up from deep inside the planet. Sometimes, the melted rock comes out with a great burst of pressure. This forces apart pieces of the Earth's surface in a violent earthquake. Other earthquakes take place at the edges of continents. Pressure increases as two plates move against each other. When this happens, one plate moves past the other, suddenly causing the Earth's surface to split. Scientists called t he theory “sea floor spreading”. The theory explains that as the sea floor spreads, the tectonic plates are pushed and pulled in different directions.The idea of plate tectonics explains volcanoes as well as earthquakes. Many of the world's volcanoes are found at the edges of plates, where geologic activity is intense. The large number of volcanoes around the Pacific plate has earned the name “Ring of Fire”.Volcanoes also are found in the middle of plates, where there is a well of melted rock.Scientists call these wells “hot spots”. A hot spot does not move. However, as the plate moves over it, a line of volcanoes is formed.TitleContinents and Ocean Floors Are Always MovingMovement of the continents It (21) on pieces of the earth's skin as ships do at sea.It creates new crust as melted rock pushes up from inside the (22).It destroys old crust as it rolls down into the hot area and melts again.Plate tectonics An area of science (23) why the surface of the earth changesand how those changes cause earthquakes.The (24) of the continentsmovement The earth's (25) is cracked like an eggshell.The plates float, and sometimes crash into or move away from each other.The continents sometimes are above two plates or (26) as the plates move.(27) of mostearthquakes Along a few lines (28) underwater mountains in several placesaround the earth, where hot liquid rock flows up from deep inside.Distribution of volcanoes At the (29) of plates, where geologic activityis intense.In the middle of plates,(30) there is a well of melted rock.三、书面表达如今，学生利用空闲时间打工的现象十分普遍。
