3．（10分）Hold your hands together and you feel the heat from them.Did you know that this heat
could be a kind of energy？
Ann Makosinski，a girl from British Columbia，Canada，made a flashlight（手电筒） that
only uses the heat from your hands as power.The invention won top prize in last year's Google
Science Fair's 15～16 age group.Makosinski was just 15 then.
Makosinski has been interested in human energy since Grade 6.
She said as humans，we produce heat every minute.She wanted to make use of that to light up
the flashlight.
She found a kind of tiles（瓷片）.These tiles produce electricity when one side is heated and
the other side is cooled.
She made the flashlight empty and put the tiles both inside and outside of it.Holding the
flashlight with your hands would make the tiles heat up on one side.At the same time，the air cools
the tiles on the inside of the flashlight.
第 3 页 共 10 页
The electricity that was made by the tiles was enough for an LED light，but it did not make so
much voltage（电压）.Without voltage，flashlights will not light up.
To deal with the problem，Makosinski spent months finding information on the Internet and
doing experiments at home.She said sometimes she thought it would never work，but she knew
"You just have to keep going".
