We all know that smoking is bad for people’s health. But not many people know about the danger of secondhand smoke.

Secondhand smoke is the smoke that comes from the smoker’s breath(呼吸). If people breathe in secondhand smoke from time to time, they could get sick from it.

But how serious is the problem of the secondhand smoke? The World Health Organization(WHO) did a study of 194 countries. They found that secondhand smoke causes about 600,000 deaths every year. That is about 1% of the world’s deaths.

Secondhand smoke is especially bad for children because their bodies are still growing. According to the study, around 165,000 children under the age of 5 die each year because of secondhand smoke. Most of these deaths happen in Africa and southern Asia.

You can do something to keep yourself and other people away from secondhand smoke. You can ask the smokers, such as your parents, to smoke outside. And, if someone smokes close to you, you’d better hold your breath or just walk away.

We all know who Benjamin Franklin was. He was a very famous American statesman. He was also the first man to discover electricity. Franklin liked to study and to learn about new things. One day he heard from a friend that something black in colour holds the heat better than something white in colour. Franklin wanted to find out if this was true or not.

There was snow on the ground at the time. So he put two large pieces of cloth over the snow. One piece of cloth was black in colour, the other piece was white. Then he waited until the sun began to shine. After several hours he looked under the pieces of cloth and saw that the snow under the black cloth melted much faster than the snow under the white cloth. This proved to him that the black cloth held the heat better than the white cloth.

Soon after this, people began to wear white hats and white clothes during the summer because they were cooler.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容判斷正(T)誤(F):

1.Benjamin Franklin was only a scientist.

2. One day a friend of his told him something about the relation(關系) between colour and heat.

3. Something black in colour holds heat better than something white in colour.

4.This story happened in summer.

5. People wear white clothes in summer because they know it is cooler.
