Things we can do to prepare for the typhoon:

Put away/move off things on the balcony (e.g. flowers and plants).
Make sure all the windows are closed and covered with tape(胶带).
Prepare some emergency supplies: flashlight with extra batteries, power banks...
玻璃在强风冲击下容易因局部 应力集中而破裂。贴“米”字形胶带后，胶带形成的交叉网格能将外力均匀分散到整个玻璃表面，避免应力集中于一点。同时，胶带能干扰玻璃的自然 振动频率，降低因风压引起的共振效应，从而减少玻璃因高频振动而碎裂的风险。
Now, let’s read the conversation between Haitao and Lisa to find out whose family was better prepared for the typhoon.
Listen and read.
Haitao: Hi, Lisa. Did your family have any trouble during the typhoon
Lisa: Yes, it was awful.
Haitao: I’m sorry to hear that. Did you know that a typhoon was coming
Lisa: We did. But it was worse than we expected. We were driving home from our relatives’ house when the strong winds started.
Haitao: Oh no! It’s dangerous to travel during a typhoon.
Lisa: I know. It was raining hard while we were driving back. We almost got into an accident when a truck nearly hit us.
Haitao: Oh dear, I’m glad you were safe!
Lisa: Yes, but when we got home later, we found water everywhere. The house looked awful! Was yours OK
Haitao: Yes. Luckily, we covered our windows and moved our things off the floor before the typhoon started. We stored food and water too.
Lisa: That’s good! We’ll do that next time.

moved our things off the floor 在台风来临前，把放在地板上的物品（比如家具、电器、箱子、书籍等）转移到更高的位置（比如桌子上、架子上），这样做是为了防止台风带来的雨水倒灌进屋里时，这些物品被水浸泡损坏。这是应对台风时很实用的一项准备措施。

How One Girl Saved Many Lives
On 26 December 2004, Tilly Smith, a 10-year-old English schoolgirl, and her family were on holiday in Phuket, Thailand. Everyone was enjoying the beautiful weather that morning. Some people were swimming in the sea, and some were relaxing on the beach. But while Tilly was walking along the beach with her family, she noticed something strange. Thick white froth was forming on top of the waves. Next, she saw that the waves were coming in instead of going out.
Just then, she remembered something important. Two weeks before, her geography teacher had explained that earthquakes under the sea could create dangerous waves called tsunamis!
"I know what's going to happen! There's going to be a big wave," Tilly cried. Unfortunately, her family didn't believe her and wanted to continue their walk. However, Tilly refused to take a single step further. Finally, her mother decided to continue the walk alone, and the rest of her family returned to the hotel.

Back at the hotel, Tilly's father told a security guard about the tsunami. The security guard was shocked. He knew about the huge earthquake in nearby Indonesia. It meant that a tsunami was possible! He jumped into action right away and rushed to get people off the beach. Everyone began to panic. People were screaming and running as fast as they could when they saw a huge wall of water coming from the sea.
Tilly was right! Her mother was one of the last people on the beach, but thankfully, her family made it to safety just as the water hit the hotel. The 2004 tsunami caused over 200,000 deaths, but no one on the beach died that day.
This true story shows how a single lesson could mean the difference between life and death. Thanks to her knowledge and quick thinking, one schoolgirl was able to save over 100 lives.
