### In the lessons

In class teachers say «you're too noisy» to ask for quiet; in science, noise is measured in decibels and very noisy places can damage hearing. Safety: in a noisy place like a road, you might not hear a car coming, so look carefully too; ear defenders protect ears from very loud noise. Phrases: «a noisy neighbour», «a noisy street», «too noisy».
