第 66 课:Sabah雨林-1

Twelve years ago, a young traveler named Rhett Butler from San Francisco, California, visited the Sabah rainforest on Malaysian Borneo. 12年前,一位来自加(利福尼亚)州三藩市名为Rhett Butler的年轻旅行者参观了马拉西亚婆罗洲的Sabah雨林。

In one area of the rainforest, he watched as an orangutan moved through the trees. 在雨林的一个地方,他看见了一个猩猩在树林中活动。

It was a sight to remember, in a place to remember. 这是在一个值得记住的地方值得记住的一幕。

But weeks later, back home, Rhett Butler got the news that trees had been cut down for their wood in the area he visited. 但是在回到家数周之后,Rhett Butler得到了消息,他参观的那个地区的树木被砍伐当了木料。

That experience led Rhett Butler to begin writing a book about rainforests and threats to their existence. 那次经历致使Rhett Butler开始写一本关于雨林和对雨林的存在构成威胁的书。
