Keeping cold: fridges, freezers and heat pumps, sentence 11
Each time the door is open, cold air spills out at the bottom, so the door should not be left open; an open fridge cannot cool the kitchen, because it works harder and lets out even more heat at the back, so the room gets warmer.
Who acts: door, cold air, open fridge, fridge, room · What happens: be, spill out, not leave, not cool, work, let out · To what, where: bottom, door, kitchen, more heat, back
