STAGNANT

In a body of water - having no current which often results in an unpleasant smell. 

Showing no activity - dull or sluggish. 

On the hottest day of the year, the smell from the stagnant lake was worse than ever. 

The stagnant pool of water couldn't have looked less inviting. 

The river that had once flowed gently through the town, now lay still and stagnant. 

You should never drink stagnant water.

Now let's consider examples of drugs we know based on the definitions we have just looked at. Copy out the table and fill it in with your own examples. If you aren't sure about a substance, for example, you don't know at what age it is legal to drink alcohol, you should ask someone. Some items you might want to include are: wine, cigarettes, aspirin, coffee, etc. If you haven't got time to fill out the table, simply discuss it with someone.
