摘要
09约旦的家庭需要围绕着水来安排一天的生活,要赶在停水之前做饭、打扫、洗衣服。市区每星期只有36小时的供水。这样不可靠的供水迫使约旦人不得不购买塑料水箱放在屋顶上。而农民干脆通过违法挖井或是抽取非供应用水来偷水。在这个全世界水资源最不稳定的国家,这些都是典型一周生活的一部分。
Families in Jordan plan their day around water,scrambling to finish cooking,cleaning and doing laundry before their water turns off.The unreliable water supply,which often flows for only 36 hours per week in urban areas,pushes Jordanians to purchase plastic tanks of water that they place on their roofs.Meanwhile,farmers resort to stealing water by digging illegal wells or siphoning water.All of this is part of a typical week in one of the world's most water-insecure countries.
