你再仔細(xì)看，會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)方尖碑周圍的地上有交叉的線條和數(shù)字，因?yàn)樗莻€(gè)日晷，而且是全球最大的日晷，只要有陽光你就能用它來看時(shí)間。

Paris also has an obelisk. Erected at Place de la Concorde, it originally took center stage in front of the Luxor temple in Egypt back then, before being offered to France by the vice-king Mehemet Ali to Charles X in 1830. But did you know that, apart from its symbolic function in marking the Franco-Egyptian friendship, it is also used as a sundial? And it’s the biggest one in the world. Actually, the Place de la Concorde is crossed by lines with Roman numerals written on them. Throughout the day, the shadow of the obelisk gives you the time. Clever, isn’t it?
巴黎還有一座方尖碑。這座方尖碑建于協(xié)和廣場之上，它最初位于埃及盧克索神廟前的廣場中央，1830年埃及代理國王梅赫米特·阿里把它獻(xiàn)給了法國查理十世。但你知道嗎，它不僅是法埃友誼的象征，還被用作日晷。而且它還是世界上最大的日晷。事實(shí)上，協(xié)和廣場上畫著寫有羅馬數(shù)字的交叉線條。在一天里，方尖碑的影子就會(huì)為你報(bào)時(shí)。很巧妙，對(duì)不對(duì)？
