Allison is a friend of mine who loves science.She loves to prove
things using simple experiments(实验).
One day she said to me."If you fill a glass with water and put a
piece of paper on top,and then tumn the glass over,what will happen?"
"You'll get the floor wet,"I answered."No.The water will stay in
the glass,"she said.I told her to prove it.
Allison loved the challenge.She had a glass filled with water,and
a four-by-six-inch sheet of paper.She placed the paper on top of the glass and pressed down hard
on the paper.Next,she put one hand on the paper and tured the glass over.
I stood watching with a smile on my face.Surely all the water would spill onto the
floor."Are you afraid to move your hand?"L asked with a smug (look.She didn't answer.
Suddenly.she took her hand away.I quickly stepped back,thinking my feet would get wet when
the water rushed out from the glass.But nothing happened!Not a drop of water spilled from the
overtumed glass.
Allison smiled."See,"she said,"this little paper holds all the water back.Do you believe me
now?"I should have known she would be right."You can see that the paper holds the water back,
but you can't see why,"Allison continued."It's air pressure.It's all around us,but we can't see it.

We can only see its effects.Air pressure on the paper holds it in place.It is stronger than the
gravity (that is trying to force the water out."
As the expression goes."Seeing is believing."Now,I have to believe there is air pressure.It's
something we can't see,but it's there.
