B
There are all kinds of weather in the world. It affects our lives all the time. It's very important for us to know about the weather. Now let me introduce hurricanes(飓风).
Swish! Swoosh! The weather is very wild. It is a hurricane. It has very strong winds and lots of rain.
Hurricanes form(形成) over the sea. Warm，wet air rises up from the sea. The air forms clouds. Lots of heat comes from these clouds. This can cause thunderstorms with heavy rain and strong winds. "If winds reach 120 kilometres per hour (about 74 miles per hour)，a hurricane forms," say experts.
Hurricanes are wide storms. They can spread(蔓延) from one town to another 800 km away.
The strong winds in a hurricane blow round and round. The centre of a hurricane is called the eye. The winds are not strong there.
The heavy rain during a hurricane can cause floods. So can the strong wind. It makes big waves in the sea. The waves crash (猛撞) onto the land and cause floods.
