Untill a certain moment in my life I had been a care-free man whose main ambition was to sleep and eat well, party like there was no tomorrow and earn the fortune.. I worked only when I needed more money, which was possible as I was up- and- coming novelist.

My friend was a doctor and we learnt the value of it very soon.Three days into our stay in the island , a terribly destructive typhoon struck.There had been warning but we were too busy partying to take any notice.When the typhoon came we were sleeping in our hotel and were woken up by people screaming and building falling down.I was stunned that something like that could happen to me.We ran downstairs and were trying to find a place to hide.The wind and rain were overpowering and what we could see through a small window in our hidingplace was total chaos.After the typhoon died down we were allowed out and what I witnessed has stayed with me ever since.There were hundreds of people looking for their nearest and dearest, crying and shouting their names out. Most of people had got injuries,thousands of people had died while the wind was ragging on the island.Most houses and shops were hard to recognize.I was standing in the middle of the street and was lost for words.

I've always been interested in typhoons, mainly I live in Philippines and we get affected by strong winds very often. A typhoon is a mature tropical cyclone that is coomon to the

western part of the North Pacific Ocean.There are no official typhoon seasons we can tell when a tropical cyclone can hit.Even children in Philippine schools learn about the requirementsfor typhoon formation.The cyclone developes when six criteria are met: when the surface of the sea heats up, the temperature of the air fluctuates,the air is humid, there is a low front, the winds are not horizontal and there's enough Coriolis force.

4.One of the factor that helps the typhoon form is

A changing air temperature

B a decrease of the temperature on the eas surface

C dry air

D a high front

Запитання 5

In the Philippines we receive the worst part of the cyclone force so the island makes all the efforts to protect itself from the disastrous effects of the winds and torrential rains. But there is little people can do to save houses and lives.Such is the power of the cyclone that all one can do is observe the changing weather, issue warnings and evacuate the area in time. Houses won't be rescued but human beings will survive.

5.Which of these statements is an opinion not a fact according to the text.
