READING a census report is like peering through a telescope from the back of a speeding train.

阅读普查报告就好比从一列快速行进的火车尾部用望远镜向远处眺望。

READING a census report is like peering through a telescope from the back of a speeding train. You can see what's behind you but not where you are, let alone what's ahead.

研究一份人口普查报告就像是在一辆疾驰的火车车尾端着望远镜眺望，你能看到飞驰而过的一切，却无法得知你身在何处，更别说知道前方有什么。
