抗议学生再次封锁了高中,要求为学校系统提供更多资源。巴黎--周二,抗议的学生再次封锁了他们的高中,这一天的示威活动将考验一场持续数周的全国性运动的韧性和能量,这场运动要求为学校系统提供更多资源。

Protesting students have blockaded high schools again, demanding more resources for the school system. PARIS — Protesting pupils blockaded their high schools again Tuesday, a day of planned demonstrations that will test the resilience and energy of a weeks-old nationwide movement demanding more resources for the school system.

在巴黎第20区的Hélène Boucher lycée或高中,抗议者在他们的两侧放置垃圾桶和自行车,在学校前面建立一个临时路障。

At the Hélène Boucher lycée, or high school, in Paris’ 20th district, protesters laid trash cans and bicycles on their sides to create a makeshift barricade in front of the school.

和全国其他数百所学校一样,这所学校被关闭了。在学校遭到广泛破坏、教职员工、学生和警察受伤人数不断增加后,当局上周开始关闭学校,以缓解示威活动的压力。

Like hundreds of others around the country, the school was closed. Authorities began shutting schools last week to take some steam out of the demonstrations after widespread damage to schools and mounting injuries among staff, students and police.

法国媒体还报道了周二上午其他城镇的抗议活动,工会呼吁工人周二晚些时候示威,支持让总统埃马纽埃尔·马克龙政府感到不安的高中运动。政府的反应非常强硬:警方上周逮捕了5,000多人,其中85%是未成年人。但警方对青少年示威者广泛使用逮捕、催泪瓦斯和防暴武器,加剧了反抗情绪,并激怒了一些家长和教师。

French media also reported protests in other cities and towns on Tuesday morning, as labor unions called for workers to demonstrate later Tuesday in support of the high school movement that is rattling the government of President Emmanuel Macron The government’s response has been muscular: Police made more than 5,000 arrests last week, 85% of them minors. But the police’s widespread use of arrests, tear gas and riot-control weapons against teenage demonstrators is fueling defiance and angering some parents and teachers.

周二,在海伦·鲍彻(Hélène Boucher),家长和其他成年人站在抗议者和看守的警察部队之间。

At Hélène Boucher, parents and other adults on Tuesday positioned themselves between protesters and police forces that kept watch.

学校封锁和抗议活动于9月中旬在巴黎地区开始,并蔓延到其他城镇。示威者表达了一系列不满,通常集中在抱怨,尽管法国有“自由、平等、博爱”的国家座右铭,但弱势学校的学生严重缺乏进步的资源和机会。学生们把注意力集中在破旧的教室里,这些教室缺乏桌椅等基本设施,夏天没有空调,甚至老鼠出没。其他普遍的抱怨是学校缺乏足够的工作人员,学生的工作量太大。法国高中生的义务教育时间是欧洲最高的。

School blockades and protests started in the Paris region in mid-September and spread to other cities and towns. Demonstrators are expressing an array of grievances, often centered around complaints that resources and opportunities for advancement are sorely lacking for students in disadvantaged schools despite the promise of France’s national motto“Liberty, Equality, Fraternity.”Pupils have focused attention on run-down classrooms that lack basics such as desks and chairs, roast without air-conditioning in summer, and are even rat-infested. Other widely shared complaints are that schools lack sufficient staff and that pupils’ workloads are exhausting. French high schoolers’ compulsory school hours are among the highest in Europe.
