electronics class He decided to create an alarm clock 闹钟 Everybody has to deal with these every day and they are really unpleasant he says He asked different people what they would like to wake up to instead of a noisy alarm A lot of them said The smell of bacon 培根肉 So Sallin and two classmates invented a new kind of alarm clock a wooden box with a pig face and a digital clock that uses the smell of cooking bacon instead of the sound to wake someone up He explains There s no danger of burning because I built it carefully It uses halogen light bulbs 卤素灯 instead of a fire for cooking and turns off automatically after ten minutes Yes the clock itself can do it Just a few easy steps are needed to set the alarm What you do is to put some frozen bacon in the night before and set the alarm says Sallin If you set the alarm for 8 00 it will turn on at 7 50 and slow cook for ten minutes under the halogen bulbs he says Then the bulbs turn off and a fan blows the smell out through the nose of the pig So instead of an alarm says Sallin Then you can open the door on the side and pull the bacon out and eat it When Sallin was a kid he spent a lot of time making drawing of inventions I wanted to make an lift in my backyard and a special tree house he says But I never really thought I d be called an inventor Sallin got an A in the class and went on to other things but people continue to hear
