My husband and I were on vacation this week and made the fourhour drive to the cottage.It was already very hot when we left,but when we arrived at the cottage,it was boiling hot.We left an airconditioned home for this.We were glad to see my motherinlaw and the surroundings were beautiful,but the overwhelming heat was the elephant in the room.We couldn’t ignore(忽视)it. The lake was very pleasant,but the horse flies and deer flies were everywhere.We looked like one of those people on “funniest videos”trying to get ba ck to the cottage without getting eaten.We could hardly fa ll asleep.My husband went to sleep in the car with the air conditioning.The poor dogs thought they had gone to hell.They were used to their airconditioned house and they panted (喘息) so hard and so fast that we became worried about them.Finally,we took them for a swim in the lake. At night we sat in the dark,drinking wine and telling stories.From time to time,I would get up and wet my head in the bath.It just goes to prove that when we are distracted (使分心)by physical discomfort,it is hard to enjoy activities.For the elderly,the heat can be dangerous rather than simply uncomfortable. On the fourth day we returned to our airconditioned home and I can’t tell you how relieved I was.It was like what was said in a movie-there’s no place like home. 【解题导语】 作者和丈夫冒着酷暑去度假,结果感觉很不好。 1.What is this passage mainly about?
