語(yǔ)篇理解

　　Atoms are all around us. They are the bricks of which every thing is made. Many millions of atoms of atoms are contained in just one grain of sand, but despite their small size they are very important. The way in which an everyday object behaves depends on what kinds of atoms are in it and how they act.

　　For instance, you know that most solid objects melt if they get hot enough. Why is this? It is the effect of the heat on the objects' atoms. All atoms move constantly. When they are hot, they move faster.

　　Usually the atoms in an object hold together and give the object its shape. But if the object grows hot, its atoms move so fast that they break the force that usually holds them together. They move out of their usual places so that the object loses its shape. Then we say that the object is melting.

　　When a tornado (龍卷風(fēng)) destroys a house, it doesn't blow it down the way a hurricane (十二級(jí)臺(tái)風(fēng)) does. It makes the house explode. Why does the house explode?

　　The air that surrounds a house presses against it all the time. It usually has a force of about fifteen pounds per square inch. The air inside the house presses out against the walls just as hard. When a tornado passes over a house, it suddenly sucks away the air outside the house. The air inside the house still pushes out against the walls, but now there is nothing pushing back. So the walls are pushed out in an explosion.

　　Pieces of the house are sucked up into the tornado and carried away. There is little left where the house once stood.
