标题[问题] 关於台风的一句话~
时间Mon Dec 26 23:04:41 2011
看ielts字汇那本发现有句话很奇怪：
Typhoons north of the equator rotate counterclockwise, while south of
the equator they are known as cyclones and spin clockwise.
请问这句话是什麽意思呢？
--------------------------------------------------------------
我这样拆句子，还是觉得不明白：
Typhoons( north of the equator) rotate counterclockwise,
赤道北部的台风逆时钟转，
While( south of the equator) they are known as cyclones and spin clockwise.
正如大家所知，南赤道的台风as syclones(以气旋的身分？这是啥怪句子..)顺时钟转。
"they are known as cyclones and spin clockwise."中的"they"，是指台风吗？
谢谢~
