Patrick: I’d like to buy a bottle of Centrum, a dozen tooth brushes, some baby’s wipes, and a small bottle of aspirin. Clerk: Centrum? We have bottles of thirty and one hundred tablets. Which kind do you want? Patrick: Give me one bottle of one hundred tablets. Clerk: And what kind of toothbrushes would you like? Patrick: Can I have a look at them? Clerk: Sure. This brand is supposed to be very good, but they’re expensive. Those are new products. They come in several colors and sizes. There is also hard, soft, and medium. Patrick: Are they cheaper? Clerk: This one is 10% off. That one has no reduction, but you can get a free tube of toothpaste with six toothbrushes. Patrick: So if I buy a dozen, I’ll get two free tubes of toothpaste? Clerk: That’s right. Patrick: Good. I’ll take a dozen of them then. Clerk: And here is your aspirin. What else did you say you want? Patrick: Baby’s wipes. Johnson’s. Clerk: Anything else? Patrick: Well, actually I’d like to buy some vitamins for my son. He’s five months old. Can you suggest any? Clerk: Sure. Here you are. This one is excellent. Just mix one drop of it with milk. Patrick: Thanks. That’ll be all.

Hurricane(飓风) reached the northeastern United States today and caused death and destruction everywhere. The killer storm carried winds of 135 miles per hour. The high winds and heavy rains created extremely dangerous waves. It is not yet known how many people died or were hurt in this storm, but it is said that the numbers will be very high.
With the arrival of the tornado season, the National Weather Service is again telling people how to protect themselves from these deadly storms. The winds from tornadoes are the most violent winds on earth. They can blow up to 400 miles per hour. A tornado looks like a funnel(漏斗). It is also very loud. It may sound like a train coming at you. In fact, the winds from a tornado can pick up a train and throw it around. If a tornado is seen in your area, it is very important that you protect yourself. A basement (地下室) is the safest place to go. Try to wait under a table in the basement. Stay away from windows. If you are outside or in your car, try to find a narrow place to hide.
As the area tries to deal with the worst flood of the century, there are many heartwarming stories of people helping other people. From all over the world people have sent food and clothes to help the thousands who have had to leave their homes. Many volunteers have come to help to make sandbags and use them to build walls against the overflowing river. While the result of this disaster will be terrible for many, it is beautiful to see people coming together to help others and save lives.
