情人節 (Valentine』s Day) :214

「你願意當我的情人嗎?」現在,人們時常在卡片裡問自己心儀的對象這個問題。第一張情人卡可能是在16世紀出現的,那是用手工作的卡片。到了1800年,已經有企業開始大量製造卡片。最初這些卡片是由工廠工人用手工上色的。到了20世紀初的時候,工廠已經開始使用機器來製作卡片,同時還會用蕾絲與絲帶來裝飾卡片。或許你也曾經給過別人情人卡,或者收過別人給你的情人卡;或許你也曾經寄卡片給你的家人,或者送卡片給一個你覺得很特別的人。情人節讓人們有機會能夠將自己的情感真實的表達出來。你覺得真正的愛情有哪些條件呢?


"Will you be my Valentine?" Nowadays, people often ask this of their loved ones in greeting cards. Probably the first greeting cards, handmade valentines, appeared in the 16th century. As early as 1800, companies began mass-producing cards. Initially these cards were hand-colored by factory workers. By the early 20th century even fancy lace and ribbon-strewn cards were created by machine. Perhaps you will give or receive a card today or celebrate your family or that special someone in another way. Valentine's Day also gives people a chance to reflect on the meaning of love. What do you think makes true love?
