Sometimes we chew(咀嚼)really hard. But our teeth can last a lifetime without breaking to pieces. Why are teeth so strong?A new study has found the reason. Its because of the special structure(结构)of tooth enamel （牙釉质）.Researchers at George Washington University in the US wanted to see how much force( 力度)teeth could stand before they break. In their experiments(实验),they found the structure of the enamel stops cracks(裂缝)from spreading (扩大)and breaking the teeth apart.These findings explain why doctors can examine the teeth of older people and find that the teeth are full of cracks, but they do not break apart.Besides enamel thickness, the size of teeth can also decide how much force teeth can stand. For example, gorillas (大猩猩)have bigger teeth than humans so they can eat toughter(更坚硬的)foods.( )1.What do we eat food with every day? A.Mouth B. Teeth C. Lips D.
