New York City's white-footed mice are one example: DNA sequencing suggests that these urban dwellers' genes differ from their country cousins' in more than 30 significant ways.

基因测序显示城里老鼠和它们乡下的兄弟姐妹们在基因上有 30 处以上的不同点。

The ultimate irony comes when we rent a television set so that we can stay in at nightand watch exactly the same programs that our despised country cousins watch.

当我们租来一台电视机，我们就能够在晚上待在家里，与曾被我们藐视的乡下亲戚收看同一套节目，而这真是一个绝大的讽刺。

I know the house, and know my cousin Hepzibah, and know her brother Clifford likewise.—nor need my little country cousin put herself to the trouble of announcing me!

我认识这所房子，认识我的表妹赫普兹巴，也认识她的弟弟克利福德。——我的乡下小表妹也不需要麻烦自己来通知我！

And how like a country cousin, to come down upon a poor body in this way, without so much as a day's notice, or asking whether she would be welcome!

多么像一个乡下的表妹， 以这样的方式对待一个可怜的身体， 甚至没有一天的通知， 也没有问她是否受欢迎！
