高一英語(yǔ)閱讀練習(xí)（二）奧運(yùn)會(huì)游泳賽場(chǎng)的秘密，你知道嗎？
今天，小編為大家精心整理了與里約奧運(yùn)相關(guān)的高一英語(yǔ)閱讀，一起來(lái)看看吧!
奧運(yùn)會(huì)游泳賽場(chǎng)的秘密，你知道嗎?
1. Why do Olympic divers use small towels?
為什么奧運(yùn)會(huì)跳水運(yùn)動(dòng)員用小浴巾?
Olympic gold medalist Laura Wilkinson explains that the name of these little towels are called shammys. The shammy, made out of rayon or poly-vinyl, can hold a lot of water and dry quickly, the former US diver reveals.
前美國(guó)跳水運(yùn)動(dòng)員、奧運(yùn)金牌得主勞拉·威爾金森表示，這些“小方巾”名為麂皮革。這種由人造纖維絲或聚乙烯醇樹(shù)脂制成的麂皮革可以快速吸干運(yùn)動(dòng)員身上的大量水分。
Divers use shammys in between dives to dry off. Shammys come in handy in between dives because it helps keep your hands and legs dry, and prevents the diver from losing grip when competing.
運(yùn)動(dòng)員在每次跳水間隔都會(huì)用麂皮革吸干身上的水分。這種用于休息間隔的麂皮革可以確保運(yùn)動(dòng)員手腳干燥，還能避免他們?cè)诒荣悤r(shí)失去控制。
“It becomes a habit that you do before every dive. It’s kind of like our safety blanket,” Wilkinson says.
“我們習(xí)慣于在每次跳水前都擦干手腳。麂皮革有點(diǎn)像跳水運(yùn)動(dòng)員的安全毯。”威爾金森表示。
2. Why do Olympic divers get into the hot tub after competing?
為什么奧運(yùn)跳水選手在比賽后都要用熱水淋浴?
During the summer 2012 Olympics, The Washington Post’s Jennifer LaRue Huget asked former diver and sports psychology professor David Feigley why some Olympic divers dip in the hot tub after diving. It’s simply because the water in the diving pool is chilly (which divers don’t like) and the hot tub allows them to warm up, relax and focus, he explains.
2012年夏季奧運(yùn)會(huì)期間，《華盛頓郵報(bào)》的記者詹妮弗·拉呂·休格特曾就這個(gè)問(wèn)題采訪運(yùn)動(dòng)心理學(xué)教授、前跳水運(yùn)動(dòng)員大衛(wèi)·費(fèi)格利， 他表示運(yùn)動(dòng)員在跳水后進(jìn)行熱水淋浴僅僅是因?yàn)樘乩锏乃芾?這讓他們感到不適)，而熱水澡既能讓他們暖和，又能讓他們放松，將注意力集中到下場(chǎng)比賽。
3. Why are there lifeguards at Olympic pools?
為什么奧運(yùn)會(huì)泳池旁會(huì)有救生員?
You may think there is zero chance of Olympic swimmers needing lifeguards. But it’s necessary, according to a New York Times interview with Danielle Martelote, the lifeguard supervisor at the Olympic Aquatics Stadium. She mentions potential situations they would be needed in, such as if swimmers have debilitating cramps, heart attacks and head-crunching collisions into the wall.
你或許會(huì)認(rèn)為奧運(yùn)水上運(yùn)動(dòng)員需要救生員的幾率為零。但救生員在賽場(chǎng)上仍必不可少，《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》曾就此對(duì)話奧林匹克游泳館救生員主管丹妮爾·馬特洛特。她解釋道，即便是專(zhuān)業(yè)的運(yùn)動(dòng)員也會(huì)有嚴(yán)重抽筋、心臟病突發(fā)、以及頭部撞墻的危險(xiǎn)。
Additionally, a Brazilian law requires lifeguards to be on-site at any swimming pool larger than 20 feet by 20 feet.
此外，巴西有專(zhuān)門(mén)的立法規(guī)定，尺寸大于20英尺乘20英尺的游泳池都必須配備救生員。
“It’s a one-in-a-million type of event, but we’re prepared,” Anderson Fertes, one of the lifeguards, told The New York Times.
“雖然這種事發(fā)生的概率極小，我們還是為此做好了充分的準(zhǔn)備。”救生員安德森·費(fèi)爾特斯告訴《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》的記者。
4. What are the red circles on swimmers’ bodies?
游泳運(yùn)動(dòng)員身體上的深紅圓形印記是什么?
According to USA Today, the suction of the cups, sometimes heated, is said to enhance blood flow. Whatever the effect, it seemed to work for the heavily decorated swimming god.
《今日美國(guó)》報(bào)道，拔火罐可借助熱力加速人體血液循環(huán)。不管它的效果如何，身帶這種“紋身”似乎能得到游泳之神的庇護(hù)。
5. Why do Olympic swimmers splash water on themselves before they swim?
為什么奧運(yùn)選手在游泳前要在自己身上撲水花?
You may have noticed that some Olympic divers splash water onto themselves before competing. American swimmer Breeja Larson tweeted “Your mouth feels parched before races a lot of the time. That’s why we splash,” according a New York Times article published during the London 2012 Olympics. Splashing water can also help swimmers acclimatize to the cold water.
你可能也注意到了有些跳水運(yùn)動(dòng)員會(huì)在比賽前往自己臉上灑水。《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》在2012年倫敦奧運(yùn)會(huì)期間報(bào)道過(guò)，美國(guó)游泳運(yùn)動(dòng)員布里亞·拉爾森曾發(fā)推文解釋稱(chēng)“大多數(shù)比賽前我們都會(huì)覺(jué)得很干，這就是為什么我們會(huì)往身上灑水，”往身上灑水還能夠讓運(yùn)動(dòng)員提前適應(yīng)賽場(chǎng)的寒冷水溫。
6. Why do swimmers wear two caps?
為什么游泳運(yùn)動(dòng)員要戴兩層泳帽?
雙語(yǔ)閱讀：原來(lái)奧運(yùn)游泳賽事還有這些秘密
The first reason is that the two caps ensure your goggles will stay secure. The second reason isn’t as obvious. According to Salo, “the outer silicone cap better maintains the shape and does not wrinkle as much, thereby causing less drag.” The inner cap is generally latex.
第一層原因是兩層泳帽能夠幫助運(yùn)動(dòng)員固定泳鏡。第二層原因就不是那么明顯了，薩洛表示，“外層的硅膠泳帽一般不會(huì)起皺，能夠更好地保持表面平滑度，減少在水中的阻力。”內(nèi)層的泳帽一般都是乳膠材質(zhì)。
