You know what it's like.You've just arrived in Washington D.C.after a long journey and all you really want to do is lie down and relax in your hotel room.But first you have to make a few quick notes for tomorrow's meeting,check your e﹣mails,and perhaps print out a few﹣things.And you need to make a few local telephone calls,and one call to your family.
And what do you usually get?Your desk is just about big enough for a cup of coffee,and there's no desk lamp~the stationary(办公用品) is only several pieces of paper and the only pen there doesn't work at all.If you want to print something,you have to go to the Reception(前台),and when you try to use your cell phone,you find that it won't work in the U.S.A.
Well,Harmony Hotel is different.Just tell us ahead of time what you're going to need,and we'll make sure that it's waiting for you when you arrive.There will be a printer in your room if you want one,and a cell phone that really works.All you have to pay for is the calls you make.
We can also provide a room for business meetings,even a secretary to take notes.All we ask is a few days'notice.
All of our rooms are of the same high standard and we promise not to increase prices in the next twelve months.But book now,because many people are already calling to book rooms,and we'd hate to disappoint you.
Harmony﹣﹣the hotel you've always wanted,but never been able to find before.

Maybe you know floods, droughts, earthquakes, sandstorms and so on. But have ever heard of typhoons(台风)?
Typhoons are some of the worst storms, usually around the Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea. Most happen in July, August and September.
How does a typhoon happen? When lots of sea water gets hot in the summer sun, it evaporates into the air. This makes the air hotter. When the air gets warm enough, it starts to move higher up into the sky. Then, cooler air around it rushes in. It fills the space that is left. After the air gets warmer, it starts to move quickly, making wind. The wind goes in circles, and it keeps moving higher in the sky. The warmer the air gets, the quicker the wind moves. And when the wind moves faster than 30 meters a second, a typhoon begins.
A typhoon has two parts, One is called the “eye”. In the eye, the wind does not move so fast. The other part is the wall of clouds around the eye. This is where the strongest with and hardest rains are.
Typhoons are very dangerous. In 2004, Typhoon Yunna killed 164 people in Zhejiang, and 24 people were missing. In May 2006, Typhoon Pearl hit Guangdong and Fujian, and thousands of houses were damaged.
What to do when a typhoon hits:
Stay inside, Close all the windows and stay away from them.
Try to bring all of your things inside. Strong winds could even blow away your bikes!
Listen to the radio or TV for important information.
If you’re told to go to a safer place, do so right away. Typhoons often happen
A.in the hot season | B.in the cold season |
C.only in China | D.under the sea |

A.close all the windows | B.listen to typhoon news |
