It's hot in the Middle Eastern nation of Qatar. Like, really hot. 中东国家卡塔尔天气炎热,是真的很热。 On summer nights, temperatures rarely dip below 32 degrees Celsius (that's 90 degrees Fahrenheit), and during the day they can soar upwards of 48 degrees Celsius (120 degrees Fahrenheit). 在夏日的夜晚,其气温很少有低于32摄氏度(90华氏度)的时候,而在白天,其气温可飙升至48摄氏度(120华氏度)。 In response, the nation has done something that sounds absurd: it's started to air condition its outdoor spaces - a "solution" which, ultimately, could exacerbate the sweltering heat. 为了抵抗酷暑,这个国家做了一件听起来很荒谬的事:它开始在室外装空调,而该“解决方案”最终可能会加剧酷热。 |
