每天清晨,卡里姆都会步行约1.6千米到那棵有121年树龄的杧果树前,仔细地观察树枝、树叶,闻一闻果实,以此来判断它们是否成熟。
1 Every day,Kaleem Ullah Khan wakes at dawn,and then walks about a mile to his 121‑year‑old mango tree,which he has coaxed(耐心地摆弄)into producing more than 300 varieties of the beloved fruit over the years.His footsteps quicken as he draws nearer and his eyes light up as he looks closely at the branches,touching the leaves and sniffing the fruits to see if they are ripe.
