名词 n.
-
An artificially cooled emergency shelter that operates during dangerously hot weather to provide care and relief for people affected by the high temperature.
— [T]he availability of shelter from the heat at a city-sponsored "cooling center" made sense. With temperatures soaring into the 100s it was a move to prevent the situations that led to multiple heat deaths in 1980. […] [T]he cooling center, provided at minimal cost to taxpayers thanks to volunteer effort, provided a trial run for the participants in organizing such an enterprise – which could save lives if such a heat wave returns.
词源
