Morley: Kathy, since you're Hakka, how much of the Hakka language do you understand?
Kathy: Not very much. I don't really speak the language.
Morley: These three-walled houses must be very traditional.
Kathy: They are. There aren't many left.
Morley: So, why three walls?
Kathy: The houses were originally designed to protect against attacks by aboriginal tribesmen.

莫理：卡西，既然你是客家人，你懂多少客家话？
卡西：不太多。其实我不太会说客家话。
莫理：这些三合院一定非常的传统。
卡西：的确是。所剩不多了。
莫理：那为什么有三面？
卡西：这种房屋原本是设计来抵御原住民部落的攻击。
重点解说：
★ three-walled houses 三合院。但其实‘三合院’正确的说法是courtyard house，文中Morley因为不了解，所以才讲成three-walled houses
★ aboriginal (a.) 原住民的
★ tribesman (n.) 部落成员，复数是tribesmen | |

Some 2500 million people two fifths of the world's population are now at risk from dengue. WHO currently estimates there may be 50 million cases of dengue infection worldwide every year. There is no specific treatment for dengue fever. However, careful clinical management by experienced physicians and nurses frequently saves the lives of DHF patients. With appropriate intensive supportive therapy, mortality may be reduced to less than 1%.
大约有25亿人--全世界人口的2/5--正受到登革热的威胁。世界卫生组织目前估计，全球每年可能有5000万登革热感染病例发生。目前对登革热没有特效治疗方法。但是，在有经验的医生和护士的精心护理下，登革出血热病人往往能够脱离生命危险。恰当地采用大剂量高疗效药物进行辅助治疗，可以将死亡率降低到1％以下。 | |
