The Violence of NatureModule 3 Tornadoes are natures most violent storms.Tornadoes must always be taken seriously. Tornadoes canbe very dangeroussometimes even deadly. They comefrom powerful thunderstorms and appear as rotating,funnel-shaped clouds. Tornado winds can reach 300 milesper hour. They cause damage when they touch down on the ground. They can damage an area one mile wide and 50miles long. Every state is at some risk, but states in“Tornado Alley” have the highest risk. Tornadoes can formany time of the year, but the season runs from March toAugust. The ability to predict tornadoes is limited. Usuallya community will have at least a few minutes warning. Themost important thing to do is TAKE SHELTER when atornado is nearby. 1教材原句：教材原句： I thought I was going to disappear under the sand. 真题呈现真题呈现 (重庆高考重庆高考)Ive got to go now. Must you?
