製造紅雨的龍捲風中英文閲讀

A Tornado that Makes Red Rain

A tornado can do a lot of damage The wind of a tornado rushes at great speed around a funnel—shaped cloud．It travels in a path a few hundred feet wide and about twenty－five miles long．As the wind circles counterclockwise，the funnel spirals higher and higher．The force of the wind sucks up water，dirt，and objects，and carries them along with it．It may drop them again many miles away．Houses and huge trees have been drawn into tornado funnels．At sea，ships have been nearly sunk by tornadoes dropping water on them．

East of Australia，people talk about a“rain of blood”．This is caused by a tornado picking up red dust and mixing it with water to make red rain．There are even stories abut a rain of fish and frogs caused by a tornado sucking them up and then dropping them．

製造紅雨的龍捲風

龍捲風能造成很大的破壞，它繞着一團漏斗形的雲以極高的.速度奔突猛進，風力所及寬可達幾百英尺，長可達25英里左右。由於這風沿逆時針方向旋轉，漏斗雲便呈螺旋狀逐漸升高。風力把水、污物和其他物體吸進來，挾持着一起往前。然後可能在好多英里之外再把它們扔下來。房屋和巨樹被捲進龍捲風的漏斗之中；在海上，被龍捲風卷得鋪天蓋地的水幾乎使船隻沉沒。

在澳大利亞的東部，人們談論着一種“紅雨”，這種紅雨就是由龍捲風挾持了紅色塵土並將其與水相混而造成的。甚至有傳説講龍捲風把魚和青蛙吸到空中，又把它們扔下來，形成魚蛙雨。
