大家好，欢迎收听新一期的《五分钟中文》。今天，我想跟大家聊聊我们学校的暴风雨和提前放学的情况。昨天晚上我在上日语课时收到了关于热带气旋和洪涝的警告，但当时我没太在意。今天早上，我们真的经历了强烈的暴风雨。我会分享这次天气紧急情况对我们学校的影响以及我们是如何应对的。

English:
Hello everyone, welcome to the new episode of  5 Minute Chinese. Today, I want to tell you about the storm and the early dismissal at our school. Last night, while I was in my Japanese class, I received warnings about a tropical cyclone and flooding, but I didn’t pay much attention at the time. This morning, we really experienced heavy storms. I’ll share how this weather emergency impacted our school and how we handled it.
