3.Jeanneke Pis is a modern fountain and statue in Brussels, which forms a counterpoint in gender terms to the city's trademark Manneken Pis at the Grand Place. It was made by Denis-Adrien Debouvrie in 1985, erected in 1987 and endowed with its own instant legend, the better to amuse strollers. This half-metre-high statue of blue-grey limestone depicts a little girl with her hair in short pigtails squatting and urinating, apparently very contentedly. It is unsurprisingly much less well known than its male counterpart, being a new addition instead of a centuries-old symbol of the city. The sculpture is now protected from vandalism by iron bars.

3.布鲁塞尔的尿尿小妹是一个现代喷泉雕像，与该市大广场的地标尿尿小童（Manneken Pis，为纪念小英雄于连而建造的雕像）形成对应。1985年丹尼斯阿德里安设计了这座雕像，1987年竣工，这座雕像的意义就是逗人开心。雕像高半米，材质为蓝灰色石灰岩，刻画出一个扎着短辫的小女孩蹲着小便的样子，显然，她很开心。尿尿小妹当然没有尿尿小童那么出名，它只是一座新建的雕像，而不是历经岁月的城市象征。现在为了免遭破坏，人们给这座雕像围了一圈铁栅栏。

 

 

4.The newest Weber sculptures to grace London's South Bank are engaging, to say the least. The artist, Klaus Weber, a self-proclaimed "Fountain Artist," pokes fun at the less attractive side of the human race in an eco-friendly way. These fountains, entitled "The Big Giving" are a series of sculptures that appear to have come to life from mounds of rocks. Klaus Weber's statues have water pouring out from every imaginable orifice including mouths, ears, eyes and even armpits. It's also a neat fact that these intriguing sculptures are also eco-friendly as all the water that spews from them is recycled.

4.韦伯最新的雕塑可以说是为伦敦南岸“锦上添花”。艺术家韦伯称自己为“喷泉艺术家”，喜欢用环保的方式取笑人类的缺陷。他把他这一系列的喷泉雕塑命名为“大赏赐”，这些雕塑仿佛都诞生于石堆之中，水从各种孔洞里涌出，比如嘴、耳朵、眼睛甚至腋窝。当然这些有趣的雕塑都很环保，因为它们喷出的水都是循环利用的。
