Listen to this!

Do you like loud noise or loud music? Research has shown that most children don't like loud sounds and think they harm their hearing. Even so, almost all children have already been close to very loud sounds, such as electronic toys, exploding firecrackers, carnival parties, loud music at home, in the car or on headphones. None of the researched children became deaf. So _____________ everyone says that loud sounds are bad for your hearing? To know the answer, we need to understand what sound is and how the ear, or rather the ear – because ear is no longer the term adopted in Brazil – works.
