Question
Read the following extract and complete the table below:
What is soil? The original materials from which it has been formed through long ages are the earth's There are three kinds of rocks, made in three different ways. Igneous rocks were made when the material of which the earth consisted long ago become cooler and solidified; granite, a very hard rock, of these. Another kind of rock is sedimentary rock, formed when rivers brought down small pieces of material with them as they flowed into the sea. The matter which they brought down with them fell to the bottoms sea, and this sediment was slowly pressed and cemented together by other substances into rock. Th crust of the earth moved; the bottoms of the seas were raised, and when they reached a sufficient become dry land. Sedimentary rocks found in all kinds of places, even on high mountains. Shale, lime and chalk are sedimentary rocks.
The third kind of rock is metaphoric, a rock which has been made by change due to heat. This was form instance, when the lava thrown out by volcanoes affected the material over which it flowed. The heat ch the surface underneath and produced different kinds of rocks, of which slate and marble are two.
