Mobile phone battery explodes – level 2
16-10-2014 07:00
A security camera captured the moment a woman’s phone battery caught on fire and exploded in her hands. The incident happened on a bus in China.
Other passengers as well as the driver ran off the bus. It did not injur anyone in the incident. Safety experts reminded people not to buy cheap or low quality mobile phone batteries.
Difficult words: incident (something that happens), remind (to tell somebody about something to make him or her remember it).
You can read the original story and watch the video in the Level 3 section.
