It will be a gut-wrenching(令人揪心的，极度痛苦的) moment for the horticulturalists at Kew Gardens when some of the magnificent trees in the Palm House have to be felled(砍伐（树木）).
当棕榈温室中一些壮观的树木不得不被砍伐时，对邱园的园艺学家来说，这将是一个令人揪心的时刻。
“There are some sad moments ahead,” said Palm House manager, Will Spoelstra, who knows all the plants inside the cathedral-like(像大教堂一样的) greenhouse.
“前方会有一些悲伤的时刻，”棕榈温室经理威尔·斯普尔斯特拉说，他熟悉这座教堂般的温室里的每一株植物。
But moving some of the 1,000 plants – and sacrificing(牺牲，舍弃) others – is crucial as the botanists and horticulturalists at the world’s biggest plant collection, based in south-west London, race against time(争分夺秒，与时间赛跑) to renovate(翻修，修复) the Victorian-era glasshouse.
但是，迁移这1000株植物中的一部分——并牺牲其他一些——至关重要，因为位于伦敦西南部的世界最大植物收藏机构邱园的植物学家和园艺学家正在争分夺秒地翻修这座维多利亚时代的玻璃温室。
