We use a lot of batteries in our daily life. They can be seen everywhere， in everything from cars and phones， to watches and toys. However， the batteries can be dangerous.A U.K. environmental4 agencys found that the disposing of batteries incorrectly causes needless fires. This has a huge cost for people who lost everything in the fire. These fires can be hard to put out.Afire expert said，“Everyone can do their bit to dispose batteries correctly.”

The biggest fire-starters are lithium-ion6 batteries. These explode7 and start fires if they are crushed or get wet. People are putting these batteries into the trash. The agency said，“That causes a real problem because they may explode. Theyre likely to be crushed or they might get wet.”It added，“They're in the presence of other things easy to catch fire. It can cause quite big fires.”We need to be careful about the danger of batteries.

最容易著火的是鋰離子電池。如果它們被擠壓變形或打濕，就會(huì)爆炸并起火。人們正在把這些電池扔進(jìn)垃圾桶。該機(jī)構(gòu)表示：“這造成了一個(gè)真正的問題，因?yàn)樗鼈兛赡軙?huì)爆炸。它們很可能會(huì)被擠壓變形或者它們可能會(huì)被弄濕?！痹摍C(jī)構(gòu)補(bǔ)充道：“它們和其他容易著火的東西放在一起會(huì)引發(fā)相當(dāng)大的火災(zāi)?！蔽覀冃枰⌒碾姵貛?lái)的危險(xiǎn)。
