《柯林斯英汉双解大词典》

“People doing ordinary jobs, like firefighters, cannot afford to live in London,” says Chris Hamnett, a sociologist.

“那些从事普通工作的人，比如消防员，根本无力承担在伦敦居住所需的开支”，社会学家Chris Hamnett抱怨道。

Mr Hamnett draws an analogy with a multi-tiered water fountain, with water flowing first from the financial district to smart residential neighbourhoods, then to slightly less smart areas, and so on.

Hamnett先生用喷泉来比喻这种模式，水先从金融区流向时尚的高档住宅区，然后再流向稍差一些的地方，如此类推。
