Luckily, we have air conditioners(空调) to make ourselves cool in summer now. How did
Chinese people in history stay cool in the hot season before having air conditioners?
The most common(普通的) way people in ancient China kept cool was to use fans. Many
fans had writing or drawings on them.
In the Sui Dynasty, Chinese people started to use porcelain pillows(瓷枕). These pillows
felt cool, so people could sleep well on them in summer.

winter and kept it underground. When summer came,they got the ice out and put it in their
rooms to cool them down.
Rich people and members of the king family had more expensive ways to keep cool.As
early as the Han Dynasty, some people used a thing like modern electrical fans. It was made of
a wheel and some fan blades(叶片). A person would pull a rope to make the wheel spin(转)
and then the blades would spin around fast.
In the Tang Dynasty, people found a way to make their whole house cool. They built their
house next to the water and used some machines to carry water to the top of the house, and
then made it flow down. This man-made waterfall brought cool air into the house.
