Pakistan’s mud mystery
On September 24, 2013, an earthquake struck the southwest of Pakistan, taking more than 300 lives and leaving hundreds of thousands homeless. But after the horrible disaster, people living by the coast received another shock --- they saw a new island, which seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, in the sea just over a kilometer from the shore, which has become a global curiosity.
How was it formed in just a few minutes?
As we know, islands in the sea are usually formed by volcanoes. There are many volcanoes under the sea. As the hot lava (巖漿) rushes out of the earth’s crust (地殼) and cools down, it piles up and forms the shape of a mountain. When the mountain grows higher than the sea level, the part that’s above the water becomes an island.
This time the island was brought about by a “mud volcano” instead of by a regular volcano. Lava is not the only thing that’s locked under the earth’s crust --- there is also gas. When an earthquake happens and breaks part of the crust, the gas is released at an extremely high speed, pushing mud up to the surface. But only extremely powerful earthquakes can cause mud volcanoes to push up enough mud to produce islands --- and this 7.7-magnitude earthquake in Pakistan was strong enough. The island is about 20 meters high, up to about 90 meters wide and 30 meters long, nearly the size of a soccer field.
In fact, mud volcano islands aren’t new. This is the fourth island of this kind in the region since 1945. But those islands usually didn’t last long. “It will probably be gone within a couple of months,” said Bill Barnhart, a researcher with the US Geological Survey. After all, “it’s just a big pile of mud that was on the seafloor that got pushed up”.

I just came back from Britain last week. I was luckily enough to be one of the students from different country to visit the UK from Feb. 16 to 28. We paid a visit to a good many of places, like London, Oxford or the Lake District. I learned much about British culture and history in London, where was my favorite. I also liked Oxford, in which I saw much more old buildings. The Lake District was beautiful, but it was pity that it rained heavily when they were there. The most excited thing for me in Britain was that I make a lot of friends there.
