Scientists explain that the outside of the earth is made of a number of different plates . At San Francisco, the Pacific plate which is moving towards the northwest meets the North American plate . The Pacific plate is moving very slowly-at 5 .3 centimeters a year . Sometimes these two plates stop and do not move for years . Then suddenly, they jump and an earthquake is felt . As a result of the movement of these plates, California has always had a lot of earthquakes . When the 1906 earthquake happened, the Pacific plate jumped 5-6 meters to the north .　　China also has an unlucky place on the earth . The Pacific plate is also pushing on China from the east as the plate moves west . Likewise, the Indian plate is pushing on China from the southwest as that plate moves northeast . The same power that produced the great Himalayan Mountains now causes earthquakes in China .　　We cannot stop earthquakes, but we can do things to make sure they do not destroy whole cities . First, it is not a good idea to build houses along the lines where two of the earth's plates join together . Second, if you think there may be an earthquake, it is better to build houses on rock than on sand . Third, you must make the houses as strong as possible . Weak buildings will fall down in an earthquake, but strong ones may stay up .
