斯瓦科普蒙德

But Namibia is nothing if not unpredictable, and just a day's drive from the OK Grocer, you can find yourself among meticulously coiffed Germans shopping for springbok-skin photo albums, handcrafted silver jewelry encrusted with malachite or mandarin garnet, and elephant-hide belts in the elegant boutiques of Swakopmund, a surreal seaside town that feels like a cross between Brighton-by-the-Sea and Bavaria.

但是纳米比亚的前景是可以预测的，仅从合法经营的杂货商一天的干劲，您能发现自己置身于戴头巾的德国人之间购买跳羚皮相册，手工制造的镶有绿沸铜或石榴石的银色首饰和斯瓦科普蒙德典雅的精品店的象皮带，斯瓦科普蒙德是一个超现实的小镇，感觉象在布赖顿海和巴伐利亚之间的一个十字架。

如果不是纳米比亚的难以捉摸，它真的是一无所有，从好吧杂货店驱车而行的一天里，你会发现自己周围是精心穿着的德国人在购买跳羚皮相册、镶嵌着孔雀石和曼陀铃石榴石的手制银饰品，以及斯瓦科普蒙德的雅致饰品店中的象皮带，斯瓦科普蒙德是一个奇异的海边小镇，让人觉得它仿佛是近海布赖顿和巴伐利亚之间的一个十字路口。

For decades, the Skeleton Coast, north of Swakopmund, buffeted by impenetrable fog, perilous cross currents and treacherous reefs, has been a graveyard for ships, and Kaokoland, the ruggedly inaccessible northern mountains shrouded by the mists of the Atlantic, wasn't fully explored until the second half of the 20th century.

多少年来，斯瓦科普蒙德北方的骷髅海岸被浓厚的看不透的雾海侵蚀着。到处充满危险，水流交错，暗礁参差不齐，已经变成了过往船只的墓地。厄兰岛，险峻丛生，人迹罕至的北部山脉，隐藏在大西洋的雾海中，直到20实际下半叶才被充分开发。

In a country twice the size of California but with just two million inhabitants, the major cities, Swakopmund and Windhoek, the capital, feel like prefabricated alien entities plopped down without any local roots.

纳米比亚的面积是加利福尼亚州的两倍，却只有二百万的居民，而国家的主要城市斯瓦科普蒙德和首都温得和克，看起来仿佛是外来的装配式预制产品，丝毫找不到任何的本地宗源。

It seems likely that Kraft will return with a better offer.

看起来卡夫要重新考虑一个更好的出价了。

But he'd rather burn off my feelers and watch me squirm.

可他却放任那个家伙对我为所欲为！
