  2. Shield Volcano

What are the 5 biggest ever eruptions?
  1. Mount Pelée (1902)
Death toll: 30,000
It’s considered the worst volcanic disaster of the 20th century.
       2. Krakatoa (1883)
Death toll: 36,000
The eruption cast so much dust into the atmosphere, it cooled the entire globe by an average of 2.1 ºF.
     3. Mount Tambora (1815)
Death toll: 90,000
The volcano literally blew its top off.
      4. Huaynaputina (1600)
Death toll: 2 million
It triggered the coldest Russian winter in 600 years.
       5. Laki (1783)
Death toll: Several million
The eruption generated a toxic haze of hydrogen fluoride and sulphur dioxide that stretched from Iceland across Europe.

What super volcanoes could erupt in the future?.
1. Aira Caldera, Kagoshima Prefecture, Kyushu, Japan'

2. Taupo Caldera, North Island, New Zealand
3. Toba Caldera, North Sumatra, Indonesia 4. Valles Caldera, northern New Mexico, United States of America 5. Campi Flegrei Caldera, Naples, Italy 6. Long Valley Caldera, California, United States of America 7. Yellowstone Caldera, Wyoming, United States of America
What happens during an eruption?.

Such a giant eruption would have regional effects such as falling ash and short-term (years to decades) changes to global climate. Those parts of the surrounding states of Montana, Idaho, and Wyoming that are closest to Yellowstone would be affected by pyroclastic flows, while other places in the United States would be impacted by falling ash (the amount of ash would decrease with distance from the eruption site). Such eruptions usually form calderas, broad volcanic depressions created as the ground surface collapses as a result of withdrawal of partially molten rock (magma) below. Fortunately, the chances of this sort of eruption at Yellowstone are exceedingly small in the next few thousands of years.

Tomorrow, When The War Began: Chapter 12


  • “They say teenagers can sleep all day”. Is this true? Do you agree? Does Ellie still see herself as a typical teenager?

For me, this kind of stuff is not relevant because If they grow up like these they will become too lazy and their children might do itoo because that whathey see in their parents. So for me, I disagree with this. Ellie still sees herself as a teenager.


  • Ellie’s dream at the beginning of the chapter is rather nonsensical, as dreams are wont to be. Is there any meaning to it? Try and explain what Ellie’s subconscious could be thinking about: why is her dad cooking for the whole town? Why did Father Cronin ignore Ellie’s greeting? Why was Corrie 8 years old again? Why were they sailing off on a  boat? Why was Lee undressing? 

Ellie´s dad cooks a food for all town because there is a new visitor coming so he cooks a food to eat. Lee is dressing off because he thinks it is fascinating for the blood. Ellie in her dream he was only 8 years old yy

How does Ellie feel as she is waiting in the truck at the Council Depot? Where do her emotions come from?
I think she feels cold, fear, excitement. Her emotions comes from her love. it comes from her fear.
Why are the girls smiling when in danger? Is this a logical response?
She laughs when someone said put your seatbelt on and wear a helmet. she laughs but she still buckled it on.
What does wearing a helmet and buckling up mean to the girls?
they think that wearing a helmet and buckling up is for funny them so they laugh so hard.
What does Chris’s story say about the town?
He said that the story was a bit funny and dramatic.
What impact does the BMW have on the story? Does Chris seem lonely? Explain your answer?
the truck has been beaten up with the BMW and the BMW is flying. there was a cry of pain from the back of the BMW.
What is Homer’s explanation for the need to swap cars at Chris Lang’s place? What does this show about the way he is thinking?
What are your thoughts on the story so far...
My thoughts to to this story so far could be a bit funny for me and a bit crazy.
