Previewing a Reading

Skim the first paragraph of the reading quickly.



What are the most dangerous occupations and why do people do them? This is a question that interests safety officials and the media alike. You might be surprised to hear that along with the obvious choices such as police officer, detective, or security guard, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) has classified truck drivers, taxi drivers, farmers, and construction workers as having some of the most dangerous jobs in the United States.
