The reference points are water freezing or boiling, and the interpolation is linear and then that morphed into the Kelvin scale as we're going to see later.

参考点是水的冰点和沸点,插值是线性的,随后它被发展成为开氏温标,我们之后会看到。

So, you assign values to very specific states of matter and call those the reference points for your temperature. For instance, freezing of water or boiling of water, the standard ones.

那么你对物质的,某些特殊状态指定数值,把它们叫做你的温度的参考点,比如水的冰点或沸点,它们都是标准。

And Celsius first used the boiling point of water, and called that 100 degrees Celsius, and the freezing point of water and called that zero degrees Celsius.

定义一些参考点，例如摄氏温标定义水的沸点，是100摄氏度,冰点是0摄氏度。
