scramble：英 [ˈskræmbl] 美 [ˈskræmbl] 爬，攀登;争抢;抢占Jimmy and Kennis Leung were among the very first fans to arrive at the Fan Village Cabins Free Zone, one of the largest sites available to supporters, checking in on Thursday.星期四，Jimmy 和 Kennis Leung是第一批抵达粉丝村小屋自由区的粉丝之一，这是可供支持者使用的最大的几个住宿点的其中之一。
“They’ve built this in a desert,” Jimmy told CNN Sport, as he scanned his accommodation space, which he was impressed by.“他们在沙漠中建造了房子。
”Jimmy 在环视自己住宿空间的同时告诉CNN体育，他对此印象深刻。
“It is too expensive to stay in a hotel or AirBnB in Doha so this was a great option.”“在多哈住酒店或者AirBnB民宿实在太贵了，住这里是个很好的选择。
”The Free Zone fan village is around 20 minutes by metro from downtown Doha but at the moment it’s a bit like entering a dystopian world.自由区粉丝村距离多哈市中心大约有20分钟的地铁车程，但感觉有点像进入了一个反乌托邦世界。
There is precious little else around the village – one or two building sites and a main road – so staff quickly direct you to the reception, which is a 10-minute walk across a vast car park.村庄周围几乎没有其他东西，一两个建筑工地和一条主要道路，所以工作人员很快就可以把你带到接待处，那里有一个巨大的停车场，步行10分钟即可到达。
There is an endless lines of portacabins, organized into different colors and mapped in alphabetical order, stretching into the distance, with large gazebos containing hundreds of empty tables and chairs.这里有一排排无尽的移动木屋，按字母顺序排列成不同的颜色一直延伸到远处，那里还有巨大的凉亭，在凉亭里有数百张空桌子和椅子。

When CNN visited on Friday, only a handful of fans were milling around, though many more are expected over the course of the tournament.当CNN在周五过去采访时，只有少数球迷在闲逛，尽管在比赛过程中预计会有更多球迷出现。
mill around：到处闲逛Navigation is also proving a bit problematic – the Leungs admit to getting lost in the seemingly endless makeshift roads that connect the village. There are, though, electric scooters to get around and staff will even drive you to your door in a golf buggy.The Leungs work in the media and have traveled from Hong Kong to watch their favorite team, the Netherlands, at Qatar 2022.导航也被证明有点问题，Leung一家承认，在连接村庄看起来没有尽头的临时道路上迷路了。
不过，这里有电动滑板车，工作人员也会用高尔夫球车把你送到门口。
Leung在媒体工作，他们从香港前往卡塔尔看球，他最喜欢的球队是荷兰队。

”As fans like the Leungs grapple with finding their feet in Qatar on Friday, they were greeted by the news that soccer’s world governing body FIFA had performed a U-turn and that no alcohol will be sold at the eight stadiums which will host the tournament’s 64 matches.周五像Leungs 一家这样的球迷正努力在卡塔尔站稳脚跟，但他们收到了这样的消息，足球世界管理机构FIFA的政策有了180度的转变，举办64场比赛的8个体育场将不出售酒精饮料。
