20、式各样的服装和热闹非凡的场面。这种场面在每个国家所听到的和看到的各不相同,但人们的兴奋程度在各地都是相同的。“狂欢节”这个词是由两个拉丁词演变而来的,意思是“禁肉食”。欧洲是狂欢节的发源地,在那里,狂欢节过后人们会有 40 天不吃肉,在这期间,人们为基督教的节日复活节做准备。人们把狂欢节作为冬季结束前最后一次玩乐的机会。玩乐意味着吃吃喝喝,乔装打扮。欧洲(过去)最著名的狂欢节是在威尼斯。最初,狂欢节只持续一天。人们吃呀、喝呀,并戴上面具。然而,随着时间的推移,庆祝狂欢节的时间延长了,以至于圣诞节一过狂欢节就开始了。连续几个星期人们戴着面具走在街上,做想做的事而不会被认出来。普通人可以装扮成阔佬
21、和要人,而名人也可以偷偷地体验浪漫奇遇。很多罪行逃脱了惩处。政府意识到戴面具已成为一个问题。它们的使用受到法律的限制,最早的法律条文可追溯到 14 世纪。男子不准在夜间戴面具,并且不能假扮成女性。之后,更多法律条文出台了。戴面具者不得携带火器,不得进入教堂。如果他们违反了法律,就要被判处长达两年的监禁。最后,在 18 世纪末,当威尼斯成为奥地利帝国的一部分时,面具被完全禁止了,狂欢节只成为一个记忆。但在 20 世纪 70 年代后期,狂欢节这个传统节日又被学生们恢复了。他们开始制作面具,并组织聚会,还向游客扔小块的彩色纸片(叫“五彩纸片”)。市镇议会意识到狂欢节对商业是有好处的,因此这个节日得以
22、发展,以吸引更多的游客。如今,威尼斯狂欢节的庆祝活动在二月进行,历时五天。来自欧洲各国的人们在此尽情娱乐。旅店已被预订一空,狭窄的街道上挤满了盛装打扮的人们。德语、法语和英语似乎成为了主要语言。但威尼斯狂欢节的本质与美洲狂欢节有所不同。如果在里约热内卢,狂欢节主要是音乐和游行的话,那么在威尼斯,则是面具的神秘。当你漫步街头时,你会看到成千上万张面具高雅的或可怕的,忧伤的或有趣的,传统的或时尚的但你并不知道面具后是什么样的面孔。没有人摘下面具。如果面具摘掉了,其魔力也就消失了。Read the text and match the main idea of the paragraphs.1Par
