八、阅读理解
You must hear about a typhoon, but how much do you know about it?
A typhoon is one of the worst rainstorms. Most happen in July, August and September.
How does a typhoon happen? When the sea water gets hot in the summer sun, it goes into the air. When the air gets warm enough, it starts to move higher up into the sky. Then cooler air around it goes in. 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 per second, a typhoon begins.

九、任务型阅读
Nov. 9 is the National Fire Prevention (预防) Day in China. What should you do if there is a fire?
There is some good advice for you.
◆ Get help from your parents or call 119. Don’t try to put out a fire by yourself.
◆ Get out of the room as soon as you can. If there’s a lot of smoke in your room, stay close to the floor. It’s easier to breathe there and see things.
◆ Don’t use the elevator (电梯). An elevator may stop working at any time.
◆ Don’t go back for your pet or anything else. Animals have a good sense of smell. They often get out before you do.
◆ If you can’t get out of your room, close the door and put a wet blanket (毯子) at the foot of the door. It can stop the smoke from coming in. Open the window and shout for help.
◆ If your coat catches fire, remember these words: Stop, drop and roll.
