**Keywords (Facts):** New Zealand is a place where it frequently have earthquakes. But Some earth quake are so small that people can't even feel it! The last large earthquake in the capital city, Wellington, was in 1855, when the land that is now the airport rose out of the ocean.The weather is a bit different over here than to England or the USA. Like England we have four seasons: winter, spring, summer and autumn. Our Christmas is in summer (so I have never had a white Christmas), which makes it winter around June and July. It doesn't get to hot or to cold in NZ, though in quite a few parts it snows in winter. NZ has a lot of hills and mountains and is quite a scenic country. As new Zealand is a skinny long country in the middle of an ocean, no part in NZ is very far from a beach.New Zealand, about 1,250 mi (2,012 km) southeast of Australia, consists of two main islands and a number of smaller outlying islands so scattered that they range from the tropical to the antarctic.

**Sentences:** New Zealand is a place where it always have earthquakes.But hope fully some earthquakes are so small that people can't even feel it! The last biggest earthquake was 1855 in Wellinton. In New Zealand, the wheather in New Zealand is different

**Questions:** But does small earth quake do some damages to some things? if they have a really small earth quake, at first will the floor vibrate or is the earthquake so small that the floor won't vibrate? How big was the last earthquake in wellinton? how much people died in the big earthquake in wellinton? was it more than 1,000? How long did it take to repair the whole city?

**Responses:** Wow! so sometime's at night when people are asleep then they won't feel it! The big earthquake must have done a big disaster! It must took a while to repair the **WHOLE** city!
