When an egg goes bad, the bacteria help to change the sulfur (硫) in its white part into sulfur and hydrogen (硫化氢). And it smells really bad. The nose just warns us away from it because too much sulfur and hydrogen will harm our health. 26. How does the writer tell readers that something smells bad in the passage? A. By showing forms. B.
