丹麦揭幕新的维京人红绿灯

It’s safe to cross when the green Viking is walking, but stop when the red one is standing. That’s the message to pedestrians in Aarhus as it unveils new crossing signals to celebrate the history of Denmark’s second-largest city.

出现绿色维京人时，就可以安全穿越;但红色维京人站立时，就必须停下来。这是奥胡斯市作为丹麦第二大城市，为突出历史特色而推出的新的十字路口信号灯。

City council member Buenyamin Simsek, in charge of technical matters, on Monday unveiled the first of 17 traffic signals featuring Vikings holding axes and shields, but no horned helmets — there is no evidence that Viking helmets really did have horns.

负责技术事务的市议会成员布尼亚明·西姆塞克(Buenyamin Simsek)，周一公布了17个交通信号灯中的第一个，这些信号灯的特征是，手持斧头和盾牌的维京人，但没有带角的头盔——因为没有证据证明维京人的头盔上确实有角。

The lights will form a circle around downtown Aarhus, which was founded by the Vikings in the 8th century and became a bustling harbor city.

这些信号灯围绕奥胡斯市中心形成一个圆圈，奥胡斯市是维京人在8世纪建立的，并逐渐成为一个繁忙的港口城市。
