" He spoke of its being out of repair."

“他需要修缮。”

It was on our return, while passing through a small village, that I caught sight of Tibeats, seated in the door of a dirty grocery, looking somewhat seedy and out of repair.

就在我们返回途中， 经过一个小村庄时，我看到蒂比茨， 他坐在一家肮脏的杂店门口， 看上去有些破旧而且年久失修。

The next morning after my arrival, he took me in his chariot to see the town, which is about half the bigness of London; but the houses very strangely built, and most of them out of repair.

我抵达的第二天早上，他用车子带我去参观城市，城市大约有伦敦一半大小；但是房屋建造得非常奇怪，而且大多数都年久失修。
