One woman in a fading Japanese village is slowly replacing its dead residents with scarecrows. 正在凋落的日本村庄中，一位妇人用布偶重现旧人。 The 35 residents left in Nagoro, southern Japan, are now outnumbered three-two-one by the mannequins Tsukimi Ayano has made to replace neighbours who have died or moved away. 据英国《每日邮报》报道，日本一村庄由于居民日渐减少，已变为稻草人村。日本南部一座名为Nagoro的村庄人烟寥寥，只剩下35人。名为月见绫野（Tsukimi Ayano）艺术家为了让村庄回复昔日的人气，制作了321个稻草人重现旧人。 It's an eccentric response to an increasingly common problem. More than 10,000 towns and villages in Japan are depopulated, homes and infrastructure crumbling as the countryside empties. 这是对日益增长的村庄老龄化问题的一种古怪反应。在日本，超过一万座城镇和村庄人口日渐减少，家园和基础设施因此支离破碎。 At 65, Ms Tsukimi is one of the younger residents of Nagoro, a small village nestled in the rugged mountain landscape of interior of the southern island of Shikoku. 据报道，Nagoro坐落于四国岛（Shikoku）北部的一处山谷中，地形崎岖。现年65岁的月见绫野是这里最年轻的居民。 She moved back from Osaka to look after her 85-year-old father after decades away. |
