How do French people tell temperature?
They read the thermometer. The graduations are in Celsius degrees, also called Centigrades (C°).
How do you tell how hot or cold something is?
use a thermometer.We can feel how hot or cold something is. However, sometimes things are just too hot or cold for us to feel safely. At other times we need to know exactly how hot or cold something is. When we need to measure temperature correctly we need to use an instrument called a thermometer. This measures temperature in degrees Celsius [sometimes called centigrade] or degrees Fahrenheit. There are different types of thermometers for different situations. A medical thermometer, for example, needs to be very accurate. It measures in fractions of degrees. When we are ill, even tiny changes in temperature are important. Some thermometers use a liquid that moves up a very fine glass tube. Most room thermometers, and outdoor thermometers are like this. The liquid is either mercury [ which is poisonous] or coloured alcohol. As liquids get warmer they expand [get bigger], and move up the tube. Water expands too, but not as much as alcohol and mercury. Thermometers that might be used by small children are not made of glass. They use a digital display which lights up the temperature. Inside the displays are chemicals that change colour according to the temperature.
Describe the structure of a thermometer?
The thermometer consists of a very fine glass tube having a very small bore and is called capillary tube. At one end of capillary tube a very thin glass bulb is provided. The bulb is filled with mercury( most of the times) or alcohol The other end of capillary tube is sealed. The capillary tube is protected by a thick glass tube called stem. On the stem are made markings. These markings are called graduations or degrees.

What is a thin glass tube with a bulb on one end that usually contains a liquid usually mercury or colored alcohol?
This could describe a thermometer. The only thing missing is the graduations. That way the height of the column can be associated with a specific temperature, the one that caused the column to be as high as it is.

Is a graduated pipette multi-volume or fixed volume?
If a pipette has graduations marked on it, it implies that it is a multi-volume pipette. A fixed pipette only uses one volume all the time, and has no need for graduations. Not to say that someone couldn't mark graduations on a fixed volume pipette, in order to be overly thorough.
