Not only is it the most polluted city in the country, it is also crippled (受伤致残; 严重削弱; 使陷于瘫痪)by decrepit(衰朽; 衰老的，老朽的，破旧的) infrastructure(基础设施; 基础建设) and even shakier(（地位，信用等）动摇的比较级) economic prospects. But Mayor Geng Yanbo plans to change all that, announcing a bold(明显的，醒目的; 勇敢的，无畏的), new plan to return Datong to its former glory, the cultural haven it was some 1,600 years ago. Such declarations, however, come at a devastatingly(破坏性地;表程度) high cost. Thousands of homes are to be bulldozed, and a half-million of its residents(居民) (30 percent of Datong’s total population) will be relocated under his watch. Whether he succeeds depends entirely on his ability to calm swarms(一大群) of furious(激烈的; 暴怒的; 热烈兴奋的) workers and an increasingly perturbed(不安的) ruling(统治的; 支配的; 管辖的) elite(法精华;精锐,精英;上层集团;（统称）掌权人物) . The Chinese Mayor captures(夺取; 俘获; 引起), with remarkable access, a man and, by extension, a country leaping frantically(疯狂地，狂热地) into an increasingly unstable(不稳固;易变的) future. bulldoze vt.铲平; 强迫（某人做某事）(-sb +into doing sth); （用推土机）推倒; （使）强行通过 under one`s watch 在某人的监督、管理、照看之下， 在某人执政期间 eg Can you finish it?I`ll let someone else do the job if you can`t.I don`t have the time to wait you.We have to finish this road this year.It`s been years.The road system`s still not build.We`ve got no time left.Don`t be the one to ruin the city`s future.Said Mayor Geng,to contractor(包工头，承包人). DATONG follows the life and work of a controversial(有争议的) Chinese Communist Mayor GENG YANBO to tell the story about how he takes a radical reform to demolish( 推翻；(建筑物等)摧毁，拆毁 ) 140,00
