该话题参考文本
Not long ago the typhoon Mangosteen forecast to hit china’s eastern coast has forced the evacuation of more than 30,000 people and suspended trains and flights. Lots of people have been relocated to coastal cities as winds on the sea near the city grow stronger. And at that time the national meteorological center said the typhoon will continue to bring torrential rain to coastal regions.
The typhoon mangosteen brings with it crashing waves, strong winds and an ominous gray sky. Storms have completely flooded the buildings located near the shoreline. The metro has announced that all lines in the city have shut as heavy winds and rain slam the city. Metro workers spent lots of time combating the flood to the underground system. As the weather has worsened, officials have been forced to shut all lines. Commuters are advised to check the latest operation information online constantly. I was home watching videos people posted on their micro-blogs, and the dreadful sight really chilled me down to the bone.
