How Does a Thermometer Work? A thermometer is a
gadget that measures the
temperature of things.
You can use it to tell the
temperature inside or outside
your house or inside your
oven, or the temperature
of your body if you're sick.
Many people use them
nowadays but not many
know how they work. Here is
a simple explanation.
There is usually a bulb at the
base of the thermometer
with a long glass tube
stretching out above it.
The red or silver line in the
middle of the thermometer
moves up or down depending
on the temperature. This
liquid is sometimes colored
alcohol but can also be a
metallic liquid called mercury.
Both mercury and alcohol
increase in volume when
heated and get smaller when
cooled. Inside the glass
tube of a thermometer, the
liquid has no place to go but
up when the temperature
is hot and
down when the
temperature is
cold.
Numbers that mark
the temperature are
placed alongside the glass
tube to match up with the
top of the liquid when
it is that temperature.
Thermometers measure
temperatures in Fahrenheit,
Celsius and another scale
called Kelvin, used mostly by
scientists.

What makes something Mexican and something
else completely British? How is culture defined? I
have been to both Mexico and the UK and believe
that culture is not only expressed through the art,
theater and music of a country, but through the
society’s attitudes, beliefs, food, annual public
holidays and special events. Culture defines a
country and breathes color and life into a place,
illustrating what uniquely makes the country its
own. Overall, culture in Mexico and the UK can be
summed up in their values, customs and beliefs,
which is shown through their annual celebrations,
food, art, religion and ways of living over a period of
time. While Mexico celebrates the Day of the Dead,
the UK celebrates Halloween, just as Christmas
presents are opened in the early morning of
Christmas Day in Britain, but on January 6th
(Epiphany) in Mexico. Our rituals and the way we
do things as a country define our culture.
Appreciation of both worlds is vital to truly absorb
and learn about a new place unlike your own.
1. The author believes Mexican and British culture are similar. T F
2. The author has visited both places. T F

26. Read and complete the sentences using the words from the box.
aggressive attitude authorities teachers victims
Bullies usually pick on someone because there is something different about their victim,
e.g. they may be physically different, wear different clothes or like different music.
There are several reasons why bullies pick on people:
• Some bullies are looking for attention, and they think bullying is a way to be popular. • Other bullies are insecure. They want to feel important, and when they pick on
someone else, it makes them feel powerful.
• Some bullies come from families where everyone is angry and shouting all the time,
and they think it is a normal way to act.
• Some bullies pick on their victims for no reason at all.
The good news is that bullies can learn to change their behavior: • Teachers can help bullies understand that their behavior benefits nobody.
• Other kids can set an example by treating everyone fairly and with respect.
• Schools can stop bullying by suspending or expelling bullies.
