再出来吧。这时的气温是摄氏110度。就在同一天中午，另一只鱼犯了一个错误，离开池塘，走到10码远的地方；两天后，它被发现冻死了。1月30日，空气温度为30度，水温度为100度。这一天，两个人完全被淹没，两个人把头露出水面。后一种动物把它们的头靠在一堆灌木丛上，流水的水花把它们的鼻子很快地冻在了植被上。它们被切开了，对触摸反应迟钝，但没有受伤。2月1日，我量了一组温度：空气5.50度；水100℃；潜龟的体温（直肠）9.50℃，随后的读数显示体温保持在比周围水温低10℃左右。冬天留在水里的四只海龟都活了下来，并于4月4日离开池塘，开始了更严肃的生活。
come out again. The air temperature at this time was 110 C. That same noon another specimen made the mistake of leaving the pond and wandering 10 yards away; two days later it was found frozen to death. On January 30, the air was 30 C, the water 100 C. On this day two were completely submerged and two had their heads out of water. These latter specimens had rested their heads on a mass of brush and the spray from the running water had frozen their snouts fast to the vegetation. They were cut out and responded sluggishly to touch, but were uninjured. On February 1, I took a series of temperature readings: air 5.50 C; water 100 C; body temperature of submerged turtles (rectal) 9.50 C. Subsequent readings showed the body temperature to remain about 10 below that of the surrounding water. All four turtles that remained in the water during the winter survived, and left the pond April 4 for the more serious business of life.
