Accordin to that website, microwave hotspots may depend on individual microwaves. Some might have better technology to spread the heat.

Thanks to mithrilhack and the others.
I read the site that mithrilhack recommended, i mostly understood what i did't before.
You can read the below cite, it is so clear to answer the question!

I nuked the fruit flies on the food, but they survived!
I noticed the same thing. There are several possibilities. First, the pattern of heating inside the oven is NOT uniform: there are hot spots and cold spots, and the hot spots don't touch the metal walls. If a bug crawls on the oven surface, it's fairly safe. Also, if you're cooking a large hunk of food at the time, then this food absorbs the RF energy like mad, and insects won't get as hot as when the oven is totally empty. Also, insects have built-in behavior to avoid being cooked by sunlight... if they feel hot, they crawl faster, and if the heat stops, they stop too. Perhaps when you turn on the oven, all the bugs move until they hit a cold spot in the radio wave pattern, then they stay in that spot. (If a bug was on the rotating glass platter, then it's out of luck.)
