Maybe you know floods, droughts, earthquakes, sandstorms and so on. But have you ever heard of typhoons(台风)?
Typhoons are some of the worst storms, usually around the Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea. Most happen in July, August and September.
How does a typhoon happen? When lots of sea water gets hot in the summer sun, it evaporates(蒸发) into the air. This makes the air hotter. When the air gets warm enough, it starts to move higher up into the sky. Then, cooler air rushes in. It fills the space that is left. After the air gets warmer, it starts to move quickly, making wind. The wind goes in circles, and it keeps moving higher in the sky. The warmer the air gets, the quicker the wind moves. And when the wind moves faster than 30 meters a second, a typhoon begins.
A typhoon has two parts, One is called the “eye”. In the eye, the wind does not move so fast.
The other part is the wall of clouds around the eye. This is where the strongest winds and hardest rains are.
Typhoons are very dangerous. In 2004, Typhoon Yunna killed 164 people in Zhejiang, and 24 people were missing. In May 2006, Typhoon Pearl hit Guangdong and Fujian, and thousands of houses were damaged(毁坏).
What to do when a typhoon hits:
• Stay inside, Close all the windows and stay away from them.
• Try to bring all of your things inside. Strong winds could even blow away your bikes!
• Listen to the radio or TV for important information.

El Nino(厄尔尼诺）causes floods,droughts（干旱）and other bad weather conditions around the world.It doesn't happen every year, but this year is an El Nino year.And that is bad news.
As fish don't like warm water, they swim to other places. Birds that live on them also move away. El Nino is the name of a climate event that happens in the Pacific Ocean. In summer, tropical（热带的）rain falls on Indonesia. But for some years, the Pacific Ocean moves its rainfall east. This warms the ocean as it travels, before finally reaching the shores(海岸）of North and South America.
Cold water is pushed out of the way by the warm water. The warmer temperatures cause floods in southern US and South America. And because the warm rain clouds move east,droughts happen in South Asia, Australia and even Africa.
El Nino usually lasts 6 to 18 months. They don't happen every year though, usually between two to seven years.
Every El Nino is different. The strongest El Nino happened in 1982. In the West Pacific, it caused droughts,dust storms and bush fires in Australia,Africa and Indonesia. In the East Pacific, Peru was hit with 11 feet(about 3 m) of rainfall in areas where 6 inches(about 15 cm) was normal. It is the heaviest rainfall ever recorded. That year's El Nino caused $10 billion in damages around the world. And it caused 1,300-2,000 deaths.
1.Where does El Nino happen according to the article?
A.In Peru.
B.In The southern US and south America.
C.In The Pacific Ocean

2.What does El Nino cause in southern US and South America?
A.Bush fires. B.Droughts.
C.Dust storms. D.Floods.
3.The heaviest rainfall ever recorded in Peru is_______

C.5 inches D.10.4 feet
4.Which of the following sentences about El Nino is NOT true?

C.It's the name of a climate event. D.An E1 Nino appears every year.
