单词 彩车
释义 〔krewe〕In order to organize and stage the enormous Mardi Gras carnival every year,many New Orleans families have belonged for generations tokrewes, groups that create elaborate costumes and floats for the many Mardi Gras parades in the two weeks leading up to "Fat Tuesday.”Not only do the krewes participate in the parades,but, as leaders of New Orleans society,they also hold balls and other elaborate events during the carnival season,which lasts from Christmas up to Mardi Gras itself.The krewes are responsible for electing Rex,the annual king of the carnival,whose parade is the climax of Mardi Gras.While masked paraders had long been a part of Mardi Gras,the first carnival group organized as such was the Mystick Krewe of Comus in 1857.Krewe is only a fanciful spelling of crew in its standard meaning, but the word, thanks to its association with Mardi Gras and New Orleans high society,has taken on some of the mystique of the carnival.为了组织和筹划每年盛大的大斋日前夜狂欢节,许多新奥尔良家庭世世代代都属于krewes 这种团体。 这些团体要在“油腻的星期二”来临前的两周,制作华丽服装和彩车供狂欢节游行使用。克鲁的成员们不仅参加游行,作为新奥尔良的上层人物,他们还要在狂欢节节期举行舞会和其它盛大的活动,这从圣诞节一直延续到大斋首日的前一天。克鲁成员还要选出一个Rex,即每年狂欢节的国王,他的游行是整个大斋首日前夜的高潮。化妆游行长期以来一直是大斋首日前夜狂欢节的一部份,而第一个这种狂欢节团体在1857年才建立,名叫“科摩斯神秘的群体”。Krewe 这个词是对普通意义的 crew 这个词一个花哨的拼法, 但是这个词由于与大斋首日前夜狂欢节和新奥尔良的上流社会联系在一起,便带上那个狂欢节的一些神秘气氛〔krewe〕"They . . . watched a parade of bands and New Orleans-style floats run by krewes throwing necklaces of colored beads"(Robert Reinhold)See Regional Note at beignet “他们…看着一队乐手和克鲁们开的新奥尔良风格彩车,那些人在上面抛着彩珠项链”(罗伯特·赖恩豪德) 参见 beignet〔parade〕paraded the floats past city hall.使彩车游行穿过市政厅
