菲律宾惊现世界最矮人

　　He might only be slightly taller than a glass bottle, but Junrey Balawing is set to break big world records. The tiny teenager will soon be crowned the world's smallest man, standing at a mere 22 inches.
　　Junrey Balawing可能只比一个玻璃瓶高一点点，但这位身高仅22英寸的人即将打破世界纪录，成为“世界最矮人”。
　　The minuscule man from Zamboanga del Norte, in the Philippines, is already 17 years old but is just the same size as a one-year-old.
　　这个“小矮人”来自菲律宾北三宝颜，虽已17岁，看起来却像个1岁的孩子。
　　He struggles to walk and can't stand for long, but he looks forward to wearing the crown with pride. "If I were the smallest man in the world, it would be very cool,"he said.
　　Junrey能蹒跚走路，但是不能久站。他很期望能获得“世界最矮人”的荣誉称号。他说：“我要成了'世界最矮人'，就太酷了。”
　　His mother, Concepcion, 35, says she noticed something was wrong as Junrey approached the age of two but no doctor was able to help.
　　Junrey的妈妈Concepcion,今年35岁，她说在Junrey两岁的时候就觉察到他有些不对劲，但是没有医生能够帮助他。
　　"He was always sick and we noticed he wasn't growing so we took him to see a doctor but they were baffled," she says.
　　Concepcion说：“他经常生病，我们也注意到他不长个儿，带他去看医生，医生也束手无策。”
　　The family live in a very remote part of the Philippines, the nearest town is an hour away and they're 570 miles from Manila.
　　Junrey全家居住在菲律宾一个非常偏僻的地区，距离马尼拉570英里，到最近的城镇也要一个小时的路程。
