瘠地
The place used to be a stretch of barren land. 早先这里是一片不毛之地。
That remote barren land has blossomed into rich granaries. 过去的穷乡僻壤变成了富饶的谷仓。
The barren hills are crowned with fruit trees. 原先那片荒山如今已是果树成荫。
The barren, inhospitable desert. 那片贫瘠的、荒凉的沙漠
It's useless to continue such a barren argument. 继续这种无聊的争辩是无用的。
