　　A bit of rain and wind in summer can be nice．But bad storms are a bit different．

　　Why? When lots of sea water gets hot in the summer sun, it goes into the air．This makes the air hotter, too．When the air gets warm enough, it starts to move higher up into the sky．Then, cooler air around it rushes in to fill the space that is left．Once the air gets warmer, it starts to move quickly, making wind．The wind goes in circles, and it keeps moving higher in the sky．(B)The warmer the air gets, the quicker the wind moves．And when the wind moves faster than 30 meters a second, a typhoon begins．

　　Typhoons are very dangerous．They blow away houses and cars．And they can also kill people! Typhoons' hard rains are bad for farmers' fields．What to do when a typhoon hits：

　　Cover all windows and stay away from them．If you're told to go to a safer place, do so right away．

　　Try to bring all of your things inside．Strong winds could even blow away your bike!

　　Listen to the radio or TV for important information．

　　Cut away parts of trees that can be broken off by wind to stop them from doing more damage．
