TASK 1:
Question: The three pictures show the position of a volcano, and a village before and after volcanic eruption.
ANSWER:
The diagrams illustrate the location of a volcano in relation to a nearby village, showing the village’s condition both before and after a volcanic eruption.
Overall, it is evident that the eruption caused significant destruction to the village, especially to the houses and surrounding areas closest to the volcano.
In the first picture, the volcano is depicted in an isolated area, emitting smoke and lava, suggesting an imminent eruption. The second image shows the village before the eruption. The volcano is located on the left-hand side of the island, with several huts, palm trees, and a pathway extending to the right. The village appears peaceful and undisturbed, with houses evenly spaced and vegetation flourishing.
After the volcanic eruption, as seen in the third diagram, a large lava flow has emerged from the volcano, cutting through the village. Several huts have been destroyed or severely damaged, especially those situated near the path of the lava. Some palm trees remain intact, particularly those farther from the lava stream, while the terrain appears scorched and barren in the affected area. (177 words)
