◇ The type of fabric you wear has an influence, too. When it’s really hot out, materials that “breathe”—allowing the flow of air through the fabric itself—also work to keep you cool. Cotton and linen are among the most breathable fabrics, so look for clothes made of those substances, as opposed to less permeable synthetics.
衣物的面料也是有影响的。室外十分炎热的时候，可以“呼吸”的面料也能让你感到更凉爽，因为空气可以穿过面料本身。棉和亚麻是最透气的面料，所以多穿这些面料的衣物，少穿透气性差的人造纤维面料。
