巴黎塞纳河上的艺术桥有200多年历史,这些年一直享有“爱情桥”的美誉。到访的恋人喜欢带来一把连心锁,上面刻有两人名字,再往这桥的护栏一挂,就把那永恒坚贞的爱情锁定。但“爱情桥”因数十万把连心锁摇摇欲坠。当地政府经常雇人清除桥上的连心锁。日前政府宣布,将把拆下的锁卖出,收益捐给难民团体,传播更多爱心。
For the past two years, Paris has committed itself to taking on the love lock trend, in which couples, particularly tourists, attach padlocks to the city's bridges as a symbol of their love.
过去两年来,巴黎流行挂连心锁,那些情侣——尤其是游客,喜欢将连心锁挂在桥上,以此象征他们的爱情。
And since the authorities made the decision to start removing them 18 months ago cutting down an incredible one million padlocks in the process it has been left with 65 tonnes of scrap metal to deal with.
一年半前,政府开始决定拆除这些锁,结果拆下的锁多达一百万只,令人瞠目结舌。于是有了65吨等待处理的废铁。
Now, authorities hope that the removed locks will be able to spread some more love, after plans were announced to sell 10 tonnes of the locks to members of the public keen to possess a piece of Parisian history and give the proceeds to refugee groups.
而今政府宣布计划,决定将10吨连心锁卖给热心收藏带有巴黎历史特色物件的公众人士,并将所得收入捐给难民团体。他们希望这些废锁能传播更多爱心。
