(A)
Imagine large balls of ice falling down from the sky! That is exactly what happened in 1986 in Gopalganj, Bangladesh(孟加拉国). The heaviest hailstone(雹块) ever recorded fell during this intense(强烈的) hailstorm(雹暴). It weighed 1.02 kg and was the size of a grapefruit(柚子). Although it didn't last long, the Gopalganj storm was very dangerous. It killed ninety-two people and badly damaged crops and houses. This was because hailstones of that size fell very fast. They reached the speed of 200 kilometres per hour, which made them very deadly(致命的). How can we be prepared(准备好) for hailstorms?
Check the forecast for warnings of the thunderstorms, which often bring hail.
When a storm is coming, stay inside and keep away from windows.
If you are outdoors with no shelter(遮蔽)，you can protect yourself by crouching down (蹲下)，facing away from the wind and protecting your head with your hands.
