1. Djakarta was a collection of sweltering huts and hovels. 雅加达实际不过是一大堆闷热的棚户和茅舍。
2. More ruins lay beyond it—an old well, and some circles in the grass that marked the sites where hovels had once stood. 而在石墙前面,更多的废墟映入眼帘——一口古老的井,还有一圈圈小茅屋压出的草印,虽然它们已不复存在。
3. And these are not derelict hovels in crime-ridden communities: these homes are often in move-in condition and located in nice neighborhoods. 而且这些地区并非那种犯罪肆虐的社区:这些待售房屋都是搬进来就可以住的条件很好的居民区。
4. They live in wretched conditions, their hovels creeping ever higher up the rocky slopes round Kabul as the garish mansions of the new drug lords spring up far below. 他们的生活条件很糟糕,他们的小屋蜷曲在围绕Kabul的岩石斜坡上,而装修奢华的毒品大亨们的宅第远远的在下面矗立着。
5. Professor Dunn believes we should convince our bodies they are still in the natural state of our ancestors: roaming bug-infested forests and living in unsanitary hovels. 邓恩博士认为,我们仍然应该让自己的身体处于天然状态,正如我们的祖先一样,他们在虫子遍地的森林里漫步,在卫生状况不佳的棚舍里生活。
