Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.

Natural disasters are sudden and extreme events caused by natural processes of the Earth. They can have serious effects on the environment and people’s lives. Common types of natural disasters include earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, and volcanic eruptions.

Earthquakes occur when there is a sudden movement of the Earth’s crust. This movement can cause buildings to collapse and lead to widespread damage. Hurricanes, which form over warm ocean waters, bring strong winds and heavy rain. These storms can cause severe flooding, destroy homes, and knock out power. Floods happen when there is an excessive amount of rain, causing rivers and streams to overflow their banks. This can result in property damage and make roads impassable. Volcanic eruptions occur when magma from beneath the Earth’s surface escapes through a volcano. These eruptions can release lava, ash, and gases into the air, leading to the destruction of landscapes and health hazards for people living nearby.

Preparing for natural disasters is important. Having an emergency kit, knowing evacuation routes, and following weather updates can help people stay safe during these events. Understanding the risks and being prepared can reduce the impact of natural disasters on communities.
