   In the Charles E. Johnson Elementary School in New York,there is a special radio. It gives people warnings (警報) about bad weather.

   Minutes later,the storm came. However,because of the warning of the radio and the quick work of the principal,no one was hurt.

   “The radio really did work very well.(我們對它的工作感到很高興) ，”William Tomic said. “The parents were as well.”

   The US government hopes there will be more such success stories. It plans to give this kind of radios to all 97,000 public schools in the country.
