"If heat is coming into a substance during a phase change, then this energy is used to break the bonds between the molecules of the substance. The example we will use here is ice melting into water. Immediately after the molecular bonds in the ice are broken the molecules are moving (vibrating) at the same average speed as before, so their average kinetic energy remains the same, and, thus, their Kelvin temperature remains the same." -ylluminate http://chemistry.stackexchange.com/questions/15852/during-a-phase-change-in-matter-why-doesnt-the-temperature-change

I'm sure you can figure it out, if not, post in English.

it's ok i got it

Summarize it as something like... Because the energy goes into breaking bonds, not increasing the speed of the molecules.
