Because I was born in a very small town outside of Hangzhou, and even though there was a cinema in our town, movies still seemed very far away to me.

因为我出生在杭州城外一个很小的小镇里，虽然镇上也有电影院，但电影在我心目中却仍是非常遥不可及的东西。

In a small village not far away from the town, there lived only couples of farmer's families.

在距小镇不远处有一个小村庄，村里仅有几十户农民。
