The colonies were put on display

有关殖民地的展览
in even more spectacular fashion at international expositions

在1878 1889和1900年的
which were held in Paris in 1878,1889, and 1900.

巴黎世界博览会上更是风靡一时
The exposition of 1900,

1900年的博览会
which quite literally took over the city of Paris,

简直席卷了整个巴黎
in that exposition colonies were for the first time

在那次的博览会上殖民地区第一次
given their own separate exposition grounds

在特罗卡德罗宫后的花园
in the gardens behind the Trocadero Palace,

有各自的展区
across the Seine from the Eiffel Tower,

特罗卡德罗宫隔着塞纳河与埃菲尔铁塔相对
and were, quote, "set apart enough by the river

"河水从中而过
to permit the creation of an atmosphere different

才能营造出相异于其他展区的
from the rest of the fair."

特有氛围"
