This was a tornado -a wind that goes around and around, sometimes as fast as five hundred miles an hour. It picked up everything on its way: trees, cars, houses, and even people. On and on it moved, right through a part of the city where many people lived. It happened so fast that no one knew what to do. Many people were hurt inside the destroyed buildings. Fires burned, trees fell and roads were broken.1. The tornado happened in the evening.2. A tornado is a wind that goes round and round quickly.3. A tornado can pick u
