这些池塘滑冰运动员是大自然的 Cheerios 麦片。

This is the same principle that enables pond skaters to walk on water by the way, tiny anti-water hairs.

顺道一提，水黾能在水面上行走也是靠相同的道理，防水细毛。

The hair is also covered with oil which, being lighter than water, helps keep the pond skater from sinking despite it weight.

绒毛上面也附有一层油脂密度比水小能够让这滑水者在体重作用下也不会沉没。
