進入《中英對照讀新聞》Dracula wants your blood：for Transylvania music gig 德古拉要你的血：為了外西凡尼亞音樂演奏會
◎周虹汶
A fanged Dracula with a blood bag hooked up to his arm is offering an unusual deal for tickets to a Romania music festival：Pay with blood.
一個有獠牙、手臂上掛著一個血袋的德古拉，正提出一項獲取一場羅馬尼亞音樂節之門票的不尋常交易：以鮮血支付。
"We have a bloody problem", "Don’t suck, donate" and "Not only vampires need blood", say campaign flyers encouraging blood giving for tickets.
鼓勵以血換票的活動傳單說：「我們有個血淋淋的問題」，「別遜了，捐吧」，以及「不只吸血鬼需要血。」
The Untold Festival has teamed up with Romania’s national institute for blood transfusion INTS to provide free or discounted tickets in exchange for the blood, seeking to raise awareness in a country with one of Europe’s lowest levels of blood donors.
這個「不能說的音樂節」由羅馬尼亞國家輸血協會INTS協辦，提供免費或折扣門票來交換捐血，試圖提高捐血意願，羅馬尼亞是歐洲捐血者比例最低的國家之一。
Less than 2 percent of Romanians donate blood each year, one of the lowest figures in Europe.
每年捐血的羅馬尼亞人不到2％，為歐洲最低數字之一。
The festival, which will take place from July 30 to August 2 in the Transylvanian city of Cluj, will be headlined by DJs Avicii and David Guetta, among others.
這場7月30日至8月2日於外西凡尼亞地區城市克盧日舉行的盛宴，將由唱片騎師艾維奇與大衛．古塔等人擔綱演出。
Up to 500 people are estimated to have "paid with blood" for their tickets, the organizers said in a statement. They expect as many as 300,000 people to attend the festival. A four-day ticket costs 309 lei（$76.35）.（Reuters）
