这个空调不用电

○张军辉

Summer is here and the hardest time has come for those who are sensitive to heat.With the temperature going up,more and more people begin to turn on their electric fans or air-conditioners to reduce the pain from the hot weather.

Humans are lucky to have those inventions to live a better life.Of course some animals in the zoo can enjoy the same treatment too,but at the cost of losing their freedom.

It is a wonderful world with wonderful creatures.People are thought as the head of animals and the cleverest one,and meanwhile the most selfish one.Air conditioner is one of the inventions considered as selfish.Because when you sleep like a baby inside a room with air-conditioner on,you are making the outside hotter.

Some animals do better than men.For example,Saiga antelope has a bizarre nose works a bit like an air-conditioner.

This strange-looking fellow is found on the vast steppes of Kazakhstan and rarely seen by humans.

In summer it cools the air before it hits the antelope's lungs,and in winter it warms it.

夏天到了，对于怕热的人而言，最难熬的时刻也到了。随着气温升高，越来越多的人开始求助于电扇、空调来减轻炎热感。

人类非常幸运，这些发明可以他们生活得更好。当然，动物园里的一些动物也可以享受这种待遇，不过，却失去了自由。

这个奇妙的世界孕育了奇妙的生物。人类被认为是“动物之首”，也是最聪明的动物，当然，还是最自私的动物。空调就是人类众多自私发明的一个。当你开着空调，酣然入睡时，却让房间外边变得更热。

有些动物比人类做得好。比如赛加羚羊就自带空调，它奇特的鼻子可以像空调一样工作。这个长相怪怪的家伙生活在哈萨克斯坦大草原上，人类很少能看到它们。

夏天，热空气在进入赛加羚羊肺之前，会被冷处理；冬季，冷空气则会得到加热。
