Solution

The correct option is A

True


Lightning can strike telephone cords, electrical wires and metal pipes during a thunderstorm, so contact with these should be avoided. It is safer to use mobile phones and cordless phones. However, it is wise not to call up a person who is receiving your phone through a wired phone.
