In the sweltering(闷热难耐的) kitchen of the Plimsoll pub in north London, the head chef, Joshua Swinney, has a frozen tea towel wrapped around his neck to combat the heat(对抗高温).
在伦敦北部普利姆索尔酒吧闷热的厨房里，主厨约书亚·斯温尼脖子上围着一条冷冻茶巾来抵御酷热。
As temperatures exceeded 35C (95F) in the capital, workers who were not lucky enough to be in air-conditioned offices sweltered in the heat.(当首都气温超过35度时，那些没有空调办公室的工人们热得难受。)
当首都气温超过35摄氏度（95华氏度）时，那些没有幸运地待在空调办公室里的工人们只能在酷热中煎熬。
To cope, Swinney said the pub tried to put more dishes on the menu that did not require ovens or stoves. That is tricky, however, when it is most famed for its cheeseburger, the making of which entails standing over a grill.(然而，这很棘手，因为这家店最出名的是芝士汉堡，而制作汉堡需要站在烤架前。)
