玻璃：一种既不是固体也不是液体的奇怪物质
Glass is one of the most common materials in our lives. It covers our windows, holds our drinks, and sits on our phones. Yet scientists still argue about what it really is.
玻璃是我们生活中最常见的材料之一。它覆盖着窗户，盛着饮料，还贴在我们的手机上。然而科学家至今仍在争论：它究竟是什么。
Most solids, like ice or metal, have atoms arranged in neat, repeating patterns. Liquids, by contrast, have atoms that move freely and have no fixed order. Glass is strange because it looks solid but its atoms are messy, like a liquid frozen in place.
大多数固体，比如冰或金属，其原子排列成整齐、重复的图案。相比之下，液体的原子自由移动、没有固定次序。玻璃很奇怪，因为它看起来是固体，原子却杂乱无章，像是被冻在原地的液体。
