1) Earth's crust is made up of relatively rigid plates that ride atop Earth's hot, semiliquid mantle. (2) The plates are called

tectonic because they're in constant motion. (3) They can move because Earth's mantle is a very hot and semiliquid fluid called magma. (4) Volcanoes are a result of magma rising up or erupting through a plate, particularly where plate boundaries are moving against each other. (5) Also, when plates slide against each other, causing friction along adjacent plate boundaries, earthquakes frequently occur. (6) Therefore, we often find volcanoes and earthquakes along plate boundaries. (7) Plates may also collide. (8) When that happens, mountain ranges are formed. (9) For example, the collision of the plate carrying the Indian subcontinent created the Himalayan Mountains when it collided with the Asian plate.

Read the following excerpt from Walden by Henry Thoreau and write a paraphrase of his claim.
Mama L [17]

Answer:

Thoreau is saying that it makes no sense for a simple man, who had nothing to do with the formation of such a beautiful pond, to name the pond. Giving the pond such a simple name as "Flint's Pond" is discrediting all of the beautiful animals and beings who dwell there such as the ducks, the fish, and the beautiful flowers. The pond was named in the selfish thought of money, rather than majesty.
