Picture a piece of ground that somebody has been working on for years. It has been turned over, planted, weeded and watered, season after season. Nothing here happened by itself; every row is the result of slow, repeated care. Stand back and you can see it at a glance — this ground looks different from the beside it. Cultivated always points at that difference: a thing that has had human hands on it for a long time, and shows it.

可以想成一塊被人整理了很多年的地。翻過土、種過、除過草、澆過水,一季又一季。這裡沒有一樣東西是自己長成這樣的,每一排都是慢慢照顧出來的。而且遠遠一看就看得出來——這塊地跟旁邊的山坡不一樣。cultivated 指的一直是這個差別:某樣東西被人的手長期照顧過,而且看得出來。地是這樣,地上的作物是這樣,一個人也可以被這樣形容。
