MP3 players damage hearing, study says


…Experts Worry about the loud sound coming from the mp3 players while people are listening to music…

Some people think that listening to our ipods or mp3 players does not cause problems in our ears, in fact this is not true because we listen to our ipod or mp3 players when we are in the bus or on the train and we don’t think about how dangerous this can be if we listen to music all the time loudly. According to professor Fan-Gann Zenthis can damage our ears, this theory shows that if people keep listening their mp3 players loudly, in 10 years they are going to reduce their sense of hearing. Another professor, Bob Cowan from the Hearing Cooperative Research Centre, says that there are three main risk factors. "That they listen to their devices at loud or very loud levels; that they listen to their devices for more than a couple of hours per day and that they listen to their devices five to seven days per week"

Anyway the people in the street who have ipods or mp3 players are listening to them and they don't think in the risks, "they say listening to their ipods does not hurt, they say this is the best what the companies can made because when we are in the train or in the airports while we are waiting for something or somebody we can be listening to them, and really i don't think this can be dangerous is just listening to my ipod" he said.

In conclusion listen to our ipod or mp3 player cause problems in our hears for the future.

WRITE A PARAGRAPH TELLING A FRIEND WHY YOU THINK HE/SHE SHOULD READ THIS BOOK.

I THINK SOME OF FRIEND WANTS TO READ THIS BOOK BECAUSE THIS BOOK IS SO SCARY IS ABOUT HORRIBLE THINGS THAT MAKE THIS STORY SO HORRIBLE SUSPEND AND THAT'S VERY NICE FOR ME AND MY FRIEND I THINK THEY GONNA LIKE TO READ THIS BOOK...

WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO READ THIS BOOK?

BECAUSE I LIKE EDGAR ALLAN POE BECAUSE HE ALWAYS WROTE STORIES OF SUSPEND OS HORROR AND I LIKE TO MUCH THAT KIND OF STORIES I LIKE THOSE TYPE OF STORY DETECTIVE STORIES LIKE THIS ONE "THE TELL-TALE HEART"...

HERE ARE TWO THINGS THAT REALLY MADE ME LIKE THIS BOOK:

1- IT'S A HORRIBLE STORY AND I LIKE THOSE STORIES ABOUT SUSPEND.

2- AND THE OLD MAN DIED BUT ALWAYS BE IN THE YOUNG MAN BRAIN HIS SOUNDS, THAT'S SCARY.

I REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND THE PART WHEN THE OLD MAN DIE BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW HOW HE DIED.

THIS BOOK IS SIMILAR TO ANOTHER I READ BECAUSE THE THEME IS OF HORROR OTHER BOOK I READ IN SPANISH IS SIMILAR TO THIS ONE A PERSON DIE BECAUSE THE OTHER ONE DOEN'T LIKE HIS EYES.

* I WILL BE EXPLORING IN MY BOOK REPORT ABOUT HOW THE OLD MAN DIE

* THIS THEME IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE THE YOUNG MAN DOESN'T LIKE THE OLD MAN'S EYES AND THAT'S PROPABLY THE OLD MAN WAS KILLED.

THIS BOOK IS NICE IS ABOUT TERROR HOW THE OLD MAN DIE.
