» 赫芬頓郵報:Kill 60 Rats, Get A Cellphone From South African Charity在南非殺60只老鼠,你就可以得到一個免費手機Some people will do anything for a free phone, though killing 60 rats to get one seems pretty extreme.某些人為了得到一個免費手機什么事情都干的出來,雖然說殺60只老鼠就能得到一部手機看起來相當?shù)臉O端。But so does the rat problem in an area of Johannesburg, South Africa known as Alexandra, where former president Nelson Mandela lived when he moved to the city.但是南非約翰內(nèi)斯堡的亞歷山德拉的鼠患也好不到哪里去,而前南非總統(tǒng)曼德拉之前就曾住在這個地方。The neighborhood's crumbling structures, leaking sewage and discarded piles of rotting food are a perfect breeding ground for rats, according to the Guardian newspaper. Things are so bad that some children have had their fingers bitten off while they sleep.根據(jù)英國衛(wèi)報的報道,這個地方建筑都很破舊,下水管道都是壞的,還有大量的垃圾,所以這真的是一個老鼠繁殖的好地方啊。鼠患嚴重到小孩在夜間睡覺時手指都會被老鼠給咬掉。That is why a local charity called Lifeline is sending a message that's loud and clear: Bring in 60 rats and you'll get a new cellphone.所以當?shù)氐囊粋叫做“生命線”的慈善組織發(fā)布了這么一條信息:只要帶來60具的老鼠尸體,你就可以得到一部新手機。The phones are supplied by a local cellphone company, 8ta, and are given out to people who rat out the required ration of rodents.這些手機是由當?shù)氐囊患医凶?ta的手機公司提供的,而這些手機是免費發(fā)放給那些殺害規(guī)定數(shù)目老鼠的人的。Apparently, catching rats is easy-cheesy for experts like Joseph Mothapo, who caught 23 of the animals in one evening using a trap.很明顯,捉老鼠對捕鼠專家約瑟夫來說簡直就是小菜一碟,他可以在一個晚上的時間里用陷阱抓到23只的老鼠!癐t’s easy. You put your leftover food inside and the rats climb inside, getting caught as the trap door closes,” Mothapo told the Mail & Guardian newspaper. He has earned two cellphones so far and doesn't plant to stop until every member of his family has one.約瑟夫?qū)τ浾哒f:“抓老鼠太容易了,把剩飯剩菜放在捕鼠器里面,然后那些老鼠進入捕鼠器后就會被關在里面了!彼呀(jīng)獲得了兩個免費手機了,他說他還會繼續(xù)抓老鼠,直到自己每個家庭成員都擁有免費手機為止。The rats are killed on the spot, and officials take notes from the captors about where they found the critters so that those areas can be fumigated.Some animal rights activists have complained the cellphone-influenced mass killings are cruel, according to the Guardian. A spokesman for the 8ta cellphone company denied being part of the plan, releasing a statement downplaying its involvement with the plan.英國衛(wèi)報說,一些動物保護組織抱怨說這些以手機為獎勵的殺害行為太殘酷了。8ta手機公司的一位發(fā)言人否認該公司參與了這個計劃,并發(fā)表了一份聲明來說明自己并不是這次活動的發(fā)起者。Local councilwoman Julie Moloi said other ideas for controlling the rodent population have been ineffective.當?shù)氐淖h會女議員朱莉說,其他的一些控制鼠害的手段都不是很有效。One idea, giving owls to local schools to hunt down rats, has met with resistance because, according to traditional belief systems, owls are creatures to be feared, TheVerge.com reports.還有一個主意,那就是給當?shù)氐膶W校發(fā)放一些貓頭鷹來對付這些老鼠,但是遇到了一些阻力,原因是在當?shù)厝藗鹘y(tǒng)的觀念里,貓頭鷹是受人們敬畏的生物。Moloi noted that there's a real fear that the rodents will "take over" and Alexandra will become "a city of rats." 朱莉提醒到,人們很當心這些老鼠會“掌控”這座城市,然后把亞歷山德拉變成“老鼠之城”。There is another fear: That locals will be so gung-ho about getting cellphones that they will raise rats just for the purpose of turning them in to receive the reward, according to TechZim.co.zw.還有另外一個擔憂是:當?shù)厝藶榱说玫绞謾C,可能會去飼養(yǎng)然后再殺害這些老鼠。
