insouciantly
■In hundreds of brazen -- and sometimes violent -- incursions this summer, the bears are bursting into homes, ripping open cars, ravaging trash bins and strolling insouciantly down busy streets.
今年夏天发生了数百起黑熊入户的事情,有时候甚至比较狂野。黑熊冲进居民住宅,扯裂车子,把垃圾桶翻得乱七八糟,还优哉游哉地在繁忙的街道上漫步。
■Two years earlier Britain had almost insouciantly culled about 6m cows, sheep and pigs during an outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease.
在两年前的口蹄疫大爆发中,英国毫不犹豫地屠杀了大约6百万头母牛、绵羊和猪。
■Perhaps if we once admit in Franciscan and Darwinian vein that the creatures we so insouciantly brush aside are our relatives, we would treat them differently.
或许,假如某天我们能像圣方济和达尔文那样,不再漫不经心地漠视这些生物,而是把它们当作我们的亲人,我们就可以用不同的方式来对待它们。
