了解“殘奧會” [ 2006-09-07 10:09 ]
看下面這幅圖片,認(rèn)出來了吧?北京2008年殘疾人奧運(yùn)會吉祥物“福牛樂樂”。請看圖片相關(guān)文字說明:

A man watches between Fu Niu Leles, the official
mascot of the Beijing 2008 Paralympic
Games, during a launching ceremony at the foot of the
Great Wall's Badaling section, in Beijing September 6, 2006. Lele is
unveiled Wednesday night to mark the two-year countdown to the opening of
the Paralympic Games.
| 相對于“奧運(yùn)會”,了解“殘奧會”的人并不多?!皻垔W會”原是為“脊髓病患者”舉行的運(yùn)動會,由圖片可知,其相應(yīng)的英文表達(dá)是:the
Paralympic
Games。很明顯,paralympic由詞綴para-(在……一旁,在……旁邊)和-(O)lympic(奧林匹克)合成而來,它延續(xù)了奧林匹克團(tuán)結(jié)友愛、公平競爭的精神,同時又充分表達(dá)了奧運(yùn)會和殘奧會平等共存的關(guān)系。
另外,再順便再復(fù)習(xí)兩個早先學(xué)過的單詞:countdown(倒計(jì)時);mascot(吉祥物)。
