We are all aware of tornadoes, hurricanes and typhoons, but these names are actually all used to
describes the same thing; a cyclone. The difference between hurricanes, typhoons and cyclones is
simply a name change based on which ocean they originate from.
Cyclones occur whenever water or air start to move in a circular motion. You can see small cyclones
in your bathroom sink. However the term is most often used to refer to the large storms that form
out in the ocean. Cyclones are created when regions of hot and cold air meet or air of different
pressures come together. These differences drive movement in the air, which can form incredibly
violent storms, such as tornadoes, or the lethal typhoons that cause hundreds of millions of ringgit in
damage.
Cyclones have been found on other planets in our solar system. The famous Great Red Spot on
Jupiter is a form of cyclone which has been raging for hundreds of years and has been as large
40,000 kilometers in a diameter – almost four times the diameter of the Earth.
The worst cyclone in human history was the Great Bengal Cyclone, which struck Bangladesh in 1970.
Up to 500,000 people drowned. Even well-prepared countries can be devastated, as with Hurricane
Katrina which killed nearly 2,000 people when it landed in the US in 2005

SPORTS AND ME
My parents encouraged me to play lots of sports while I was growing up. I was far
better at some than others!
When I was five years old, my mother signed me up for tennis classes. 35. During
my first lesson, the coach sent a tennis ball flying into my cheek by mistake! That was when I
started to have a fear of tennis balls. That ended my mother’s dream of seeing me become a tennis
star.
When I was seven, my father bought badminton rackets for my brother and me.
36. Despite my best efforts, I just couldn’t get my serve right. It was no surprise that
the practice sessions ended shortly after that.
37. I tried another sport, netball. It was one of the few that I really enjoyed playing. I
even got selected for the school team at the age of 11. From there on, I spent hours learning the
correct way to pass and catch the ball.
Even though I was very short, I played in ‘goal defense’ position in competitions. At one
Competition, I tried very hard to block an extremely tall goal shooter. 38. This defeat
made me question if netball was the right sport for me.
The only sport that I’m interested in now is taekwondo. I was 12 years old when I first
joined my taekwondo club. I was the smallest in the class, but I enjoyed the activities every
week. There were times when I got injured and hurt my ankle during training sessions. 39.
I attended all the weekly taekwondo classes and passed all the tests. With time and effort,
I finally received my black belt and managed to win several prizes in competitions. 40.
I hope one day I’ll be able to join the Malaysian team and make my country proud.
