周二，数十万民众走上法国街头。其中就有18岁的保利娜和17岁的维奥莱特，她们正礼貌地与一位吸着盒装苹果汁的白发男子交谈。
两位少女举着标语牌，上面用比保利娜的蓝莓色指甲油颜色稍深的墨水写着：“我们要更好的教育！”
Among the hundreds of thousands of people who took to the streets in France on Tuesday were Paolina and Violette, eighteen and seventeen years old, arguing politely with a white-haired man sucking apple juice from a juice box.
保利娜在索邦新大学攻读美术专业，维奥莱特则在大学技术学院学习传播学。她们来到巴黎的共和国广场，为法国教育现状发声。
空气中弥漫着烤肉的香味，维奥莱特开始列举教育体制存在的种种问题：“今年，政府削减了4000个教师岗位。”她所列举的数据准确无误。
那位不愿透露姓名的男子则认为法国教育的问题很容易解决：当局只需在课程中“增加更多人工智能内容”即可。
The two young women carried signs: “ declared one, handwritten in ink a few shades darker than Paolina’s blueberry-colored manicure. “.” Paolina is studying fine arts at the Sorbonne Nouvelle; Violette is a communications major at the Institut Universitaire de Technologie. They had come out to the Place de la République, in Paris, to protest the conditions at French schools. The familiar scent of grilling merguez wafted through the air as Violette began to enumerate the system’s failures. “This year, the government eliminated four thousand teaching positions,” she said. (Her stats were dead-on.) The man, who declined to give his name, thought that the problems facing French schools could be resolved quite easily: all the authorities had to do was “put more A.I.” into the curriculum.
