2015考研英语阅读人类的头发

　　It should perhaps be obvious that such an exhibition in France would turn next to thesecond world war. But photographs of l puration, a grisly moment at the time of theliberation when the country rose up against those suspected of being collaborators, are stillshocking. Taking a cue from the purification of Republican women in Spain in the 1930s,French women who had slept with the enemy were marched on to public squares and shaved.

　　在法国，这样的展览接下来可能显然要转到二战的方向上来。但这里展出的关于大清洗的照片却更加令人震惊恐怖的大清洗发生在法国解放前后，当时全国人民起身反抗那些有通敌嫌疑的人。二十世纪三十年代，西班牙对支持共和的妇女进行了清洗。法国效仿此举，将曾经与敌人有染的妇女押往广场示众并强行剃去了她们的头发。

　　Jeering crowds accompanied this public depilation, adding to the stigma. A series of picturestaken by a Magnum photographer, Robert Capa, in Chartres in August 1944, just a weekbefore the liberation of Paris, are a testimony, three-quarters of a century later, to the hate,curiosity, shame and indifference of crowds. Even more striking, because it is so rarelyseen, is a montage of film clips of that time in which a group of women is trundled throughthe streets on a cart marked les poules boche while a soldier chucks one of them under thechin.
