Declarations of undying devotion will flash across Paris's municipal bulletin boards every 20 seconds next month as the French capital invents a new way to say "I love you" on Valentine's Day. Bertrand Delanoe, the left-wing mayor known for his innovative 1 city festivals, said the electronic boards would carry the best short love letters on February 14 - Valentine's Day - and throughout that weekend, adding that they would "help Parisians tell each other' I love you'". He urged Parisians to send in their messages with a note indicating which neighbourhood they wanted them to be posted in. A special committee would pick out the best ones to display. The illuminated 2 boards, which normally announce everything from city festivals to traffic warnings, stand at key squares and intersections 3 all around the French capital. 法国首都巴黎发明了一种在情人节这天说“我爱你”的新方法,下个月中巴黎市各处的市政公告牌上每20秒就会有表达不渝热爱的宣言闪过。以喜欢组织新奇的城市节庆活动著称的左翼巴黎市长伯特兰-迪拉诺说 ,这些电子公告牌将会在2月14日情人节这天以及此后的周末刊载最动人的简短情书,并宣称它们会“鼓励巴黎人对彼此说‘我爱你’ ” 。他敦促巴黎人交来他们的爱情讯息,同时注明他们希望在哪个地段公布讯息。一个特别委员会将选出最好的一些情书进行展示。这些发光的公告牌分布在巴黎各个主要广场和十字路口 ,通常被用于公告从城市节庆活动到交通警示的各类事项 。 Remarks:市政当局活跃气氛的动机无可非议,只是我以为,就个人来说 ,这种“爱要让全世界知道”的做法不过是一种轻浮的炫耀或着内心虚弱者的壮胆行为--如果他/她不是真的失踪了的话。
