盘点历届奥运会上伤自尊的乌龙事件

 　　Olympics officials in Rio have apologized after discovering they were raising an incorrect Chinese national flag during medal ceremonies.

　　颁奖仪式上升起的中国国旗有误，里约奥委会官员表示道歉。
　　Both Chinese flags are red and feature a large yellow star flanked by four smaller stars. But there are subtle differences in how the smaller stars are aligned 1.
　　两面中国国旗是红色的，上面有四颗小五角星环拱一颗大的黄色五角星。但小星星的排列方式却有细微差错。
　　On the correct Chinese flag the four smaller stars should be rotated so that they point toward the center of the larger star. Instead, the flags used in Rio were positioned parallel to each other.
　　正确的中国国旗上，四颗小五角星应该有所偏转，指向大五角星的中心。但里约使用的国旗上，星星是彼此平行的。
　　Rio officials aren't alone in their China flag flub. On Saturday, Australia's Channel 7 network used the Chilean national flag instead of the Chinese flag.
　　不只是里约奥委会的官员弄错了中国国旗。周六，澳大利亚电视七台的播报也将智利的国旗错当成了中国国旗。

　　俄罗斯索契冬奥会的开幕式上出现了令人尴尬的技术故障。菲施特体育馆内，奥运标志五环的点亮未能完好呈现——只有四环在闪耀。
　　As the spectacle was originally conceived, five glowing snowflakes emerged from a wintry scene; as they floated on top of the arena, each snowflake, one-by-one, transformed into the rings formation. Alas 8, for the ceremony on Friday, Feb. 7, only four of the five snowflakes successfully transformed.
　　而原先设定的场景是五朵灿烂的雪花在寒冬背景中出现，当它们上升到场馆最高处时，雪花一朵接一朵变为环状。可惜在2月7日的开幕式上，五朵雪花中只有四朵变化成功。
　　The opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics in Vancouver did not turn out as organisers in Vancouver would have liked. At the climax 9 of the three-hour show, with five torch-bearing Canadian sports heroes in the spotlight 10, a technical error ruined the symmetry.
　　温哥华冬奥会的开幕式并没有如主办方所想的那样进行。当长达三小时的演出进入最高潮，聚光灯下是五名举着火炬的加拿大体坛英豪，而一个技术失误毁了原先设计的对称性。
　　One of four pillars designed to rise from the stadium floor and form the Olympic cauldron malfunctioned 11, leaving the speedskater Catriona LeMay Doan unable to join in the lighting.

　　原设计是从场馆地面升起四根冰柱，共同组成奥运主火炬，但其中一根冰柱出现故障，导致速滑名将卡特里奥娜?勒梅?多恩无法参与点火。坐在轮椅上的运动员里克?汉森，传奇冰球运动员韦恩?格雷茨基，滑雪运动员南希?格林和NBA巨星史蒂夫?纳什都按计划继续点燃圣火，但勒梅?多恩就只能举着火炬向观众致意。
　　The traditional release of live doves at the Olympic opening ceremony was abandoned after Seoul 1988, when around 10 chose not to swoop 15 majestically 16 across the sky but instead to settle on the rim 17 of the Olympic cauldron just as it was being lit and were instantly burned to death.
　　1988年汉城奥运会后，奥运会开幕式上不再延续放飞鸽子的传统。因为在那一届奥运会开幕式上，大约有十只鸽子没有选择庄严地划过天空，而是停留在即将被点燃的奥运圣火边缘，接着立刻被烧死。
