一个月内登陆四个“超强台风”：今年的秋天为何格外难熬？（朗读版）｜E0923

▍原文

Authorities in east China's Zhejiang Province have taken precautions against Pulasan, the 14th typhoon of the year.

"This autumn, typhoons have been unusually active. Since the beginning of September, four typhoons have formed," said a researcher at the China Meteorological Administration. "The primary reason behind this is the abnormal behavior of subtropical high pressure."

Bebinca, which made landfall in Shanghai last week, is believed to be the strongest typhoon to hit the metropolis in 75 years.
