PAKET 2 PART4

Hurricanes are giant, spiraling tropical storms that can pack wind speeds of over 160 miles (257 kilometers) an hour and unleash more than 2.4 trillion gallons (9 trillion liters) of rain a day.

Hurricanes begin as tropical in warm ocean waters with surface temperatures at least 80 degrees Fahrenheit (26.5 degrees Celsius). These low pressure systems are fed by energy from the warm seas. If a storm achieves wind of 38 miles (61 kilometers) an hour, it becomes known as a tropical depression. A tropical depression becomes a tropical storm, when its sustained wind speeds top 39 miles (63 kilometers) an hour. When a storm’s sustained wind speeds reach 74 miles (119 kilometers) an hour, it becomes a hurricane and a category rating of 1 to 5 on the Saffir-Simpson.

What is the topic of the text?

• Tropical disturbance in warm ocean

• The wind speeds of the giant storms.

• Tropical storms known as cyclones.

• Giant tropical storms, hurricanes.

What is the main idea of the second paragraph?

• Tropical depression is caused by wind speeds of 38 miles

• The low pressure systems are fed by energy from

  warm seas.

• The wind speeds can change a hurricane into a tropical storm

• The surface temperature and wind speeds can

  cause a hurricane.

My Idol

Hello my name is Florence. I want to tell you about my idol from which my name is taken from. Her name is Florence Nightingale. She was born in 1820 to a wealthy English family. She decided in her teens to become a nurse, even though her parents disapproved. At that time, most nurses were from poor families and had little or no training. But Nightingale was determined to have her way. In 1850 and 1851, she received training at hospitals in Egypt and Germany.

In 1853, Nightingale took charge of a hospital in London, England. Here she showed skills as a nurse and an organizer. She had bells put beside patients’ beds. When patients needed a nurse, they rang their bells. Nobody had thought of this idea before.

Nightingale devoted the rest of her long life to improve public health and educating people about the importance of good hygiene. Britain’s hospital accepted her ideas, and they became cleaner and healthier places.

In 1860, Nightingale set up a training school for nurses in London. The ”Nightingale nurses,” as its graduates were called, helped spread Nightingale’s ideas around the world. Nightingale died in 1910 at the age of 90.

What is the purpose of the text above?

• To portray Florence ‘s life

• To describe Florence’s idols

• To explain writer’s role model

• To tell about Florence’s origin name
