英闻天天译： 尼泊尔首都震动

Nepal's capital became a city of whispers and rumors Sunday as residents hunkered down outdoors in tents and cars, and recurring aftershocks from Saturday’s earthquake kept everyone on edge, fearing another big quake.
Food and water supplies ran low. Price gouging began. Electricity was intermittent. Rescuers battled to make it to residents of remote villages — as well as climbers on Mount Everest — to save those still stranded more than 24 hours after the catastrophe. They continued clawing victims out of the rubble, sometimes with their bare hands.
The death toll kept climbing throughout the day and by early Monday it stood at more than 3,600 in Nepal and dozens more in neighboring countries.
