3. Women Living in Chernobyl
生活在切爾諾貝利的女性
When the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant exploded in 1986, the 18-mile area around it was deemed uninhabitable and the Soviets resettled the 18,000 residents, but over the years a determined few babushkas (older women) came back to live in the restricted area. Whether nostalgic, stubborn, or just plain crazy, 230 so-called "self-settlers" remain.
自切爾諾貝利核電站爆炸后,其方圓18英里的區(qū)域內(nèi)均不再適合人類居住了,蘇聯(lián)得重新安置這18000位居民 。但這些年來,一些頑固的巴布什卡婦女(年長(zhǎng)的婦女)又搬回到這禁地里居住 。也許是懷舊,也許是固執(zhí),或只是純粹的瘋狂,這230位號(hào)稱“自由移居”的人,就這樣在這定居了 。
