Read the article and choose the correct answer.
1. Scientists have found the longest earthquake ever. It happened near Sumatra and lasted for 32 years. This type of earthquake is called a 'slow-slip event.' This means the earthquake was weak but lasted a long time. After many years, it became a massive earthquake of 8.5 on the Richter scale. This big earthquake caused a tsunami that damaged Indonesia a lot.
2. 'Slow-slip events' can last for many years. Before, scientists thought they only lasted for weeks or months. Researchers from Nanyang Technological University studied old corals to learn about these long earthquakes. These corals are called microatolls and are found on Sumatra's coast. The patterns on the corals show how sea levels and the land have moved over time.
3. These patterns helped researchers know that the earthquake lasted from 1829 to 1861. The Earth's surface is made of pieces called tectonic plates. These plates fit together like puzzle pieces and are always moving. The edges of these plates are called faults. When faults move, they can cause earthquakes.
