Following the number-based convention, typhoons are coded with31types of numbers such as a 4-digit
25、 or a 6-digit code. For example, the 14th typhoon in 20XX can be labeled either as Typhoon 0314 or Typhoon 20XX14. The 32 of this convention,however, is that a number is hard to remember. The list-based convention, on the other hand, is based on the list of typhoon names compiled in advance by a com
26、mittee, and is more widely used.纣忧蔣氳頑莶驅藥悯骛。纣忧蔣氳頑莶驅藥悯骛覲。At the very beginning, only33names were used because at that time typhoons werenamed after girlfriends or wives of the experts on the committee. In 1979, however, male nameswere also included because women protested against the original naming34
27、for reasons ofgender equality. 颖刍莖蛺饽亿顿裊赔泷。颖刍莖蛺饽亿顿裊赔泷涨。In Asia, Western names were used until 20XX when the committee decided to use Asian names to35 Asians awareness of typhoons. The names were chosen from a name pool36 of 140 names, 10 each from the 14 members of the committee. Each country has its
28、 unique naming preferences. Korea and Japan 37 animal names and China likes names of godssuch as Longwang (dragon king) and Fengshen (god of the wind).濫驂膽閉驟羥闈詔寢賻。濫驂膽閉驟羥闈詔寢賻減。After the 140 names are all used in order, they will be 38 . But the names can be changed. If a member country suffers great d
29、amage from a certain typhoon, it can 39 that the name of the typhoon be deleted from the list at the annual committee meeting. For example,3 / 9鎦诗涇艳损楼紲s鯗knees餳類。.鎦诗涇艳损楼紲鯗餳類碍。the names of Nabi by South Korea, and Longwang by China were 40 with other names in 20XX. The deletion of both names was due t
