北京迷笛音樂節(jié)上，行為藝術(shù)家韓冰現(xiàn)身，發(fā)起遛白菜活動(dòng)。韓冰稱，現(xiàn)代人的生活節(jié)奏快，精神壓力大，沒朋友可以傾訴，有個(gè)朋友也不見得能幫你清除寂寞?！板薨撞恕闭娴臎]啥可好奇的，大白菜寂寞，又有隨時(shí)被丟棄的危險(xiǎn)，人也如此，說白了，“遛白菜”，其實(shí)“遛”的是自己。

Lonely teenagers in China who feel life is pointless and who struggle to find friends have taken to befriending the lowly vegetables as the perfect, undemanding companions.

在中國，寂寞的青少年們開始跟廉價(jià)的蔬菜做朋友，把它們當(dāng)做完美的、不求回報(bào)的好伙伴。這些青少年普遍覺得生活沒有目標(biāo)，又苦于找不到朋友。

And the sight of them out 'walking' the cabbages in a bid to battle loneliness is the latest way of meeting someone new - as cabbage walkers use their weird pets as a way to start up conversations with each other.

最近，通過遛白菜來排遣寂寞成為他們結(jié)交新朋友的一種方式，遛白菜的年輕人之間可以用白菜來挑起話題。

A group of youths were recently photographed walking cabbages at a music festival named the Midi Music Festival in the Chinese capital Beijing.

最近在北京舉行的迷笛音樂節(jié)上，有照片拍到一群年輕人在遛白菜。

Lui Ja Chen, 17, and one of the cabbage walking youths, said: "I feel I can transfer my negative thoughts about myself to the cabbage, go for a walk with it and come home feeling better about myself.

17歲的陳璐佳（音譯）是其中之一，她說：“我覺得自己的負(fù)面情緒可以轉(zhuǎn)移到白菜上，遛著白菜走一圈再回家讓我感覺好多了?！?/p>

"If I see someone else it's easy to start up a conversation with them about their cabbage, and they are better than dogs as they don't bark, or start fights with other cabbages. It doesn't even need feeding, or leave a mess on the pavement.

“如果我看到其他遛白菜的人，我們可以從白菜聊起來，而且白菜比狗好多了，它們不會(huì)叫，不會(huì)跟別的白菜打架，它們更不需要喂，當(dāng)然也不會(huì)污染街道?！?/p>

"In fact afterwards, I can throw the cabbage away and feel that I have tossed my feelings out with it."

“事實(shí)上，遛完以后我就可以把白菜扔了，然后感覺我把不好的情緒跟它一起扔掉了。”
