UNIT 10 - READING 2 TOEFL (The San Andreas Fault)
The San Andreas Fault, the boundary between the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate, runs along the northern coast of California and extends inland into the southern part of the state. It was discovered in 1895 and named after San Andreas Lake, which was formed by the movements of these plates. These movements have helped shape the landscape of California in many other ways too. They have created beautiful mountains and valleys. But the San Andreas Fault is also a cause of much concern. The plates are still moving today, and they make the ground in the area dangerously unstable. The San Andreas Fault is a transform fault. This means that the plates that form it are moving past each other. Since they are moving in opposite directions, there is a high chance of serious earthquakes occurring. This is especially worrisome because the fault runs through several highly populated areas. Actually, a huge earthquake hit San Francisco in 1906. It destroyed much of the city and showed just how destructive these plate movements can be. Earthquakes are very difficult to predict, but studying plate boundaries more carefully may help scientists develop better warning systems for these natural disasters. The San Andreas Fault, one of rare plate boundaries on land, is much easier to study than other plate boundaries, which are mostly found beneath the ocean. Geologists are carefully studying it and watching for any signs that could help them predict when the next big earthquake may occur.
