dangerous decibels

In dangerous decibels we learnt about how loud things can affect your hearing, the things that can are the noises that go over 85 decibels, our teacher has asked us to make a list of things of facts about noise and things that can affect your hearing.

1. Any concert of any kind can severely affect your hearing but heavy metals the worst

2. If you turn your music up to much with earphones (or headphones but earphones are worse) it can damage your ears

3. It is better to have headphones instead of earphones because the earphones sound goes straight into your ears while headphones noise circles around and then goes in

Similies

As sharp as a little piece of glass lying on the ground waiting for the next bare foot to step on it
As shiny as the sun on a warm summers morning
As relaxed as a fat lazy cat lying on a confortable couch
Burning like a skin rash in ice cold water
As indicate as a tiny new watch on display in the the electronics store
