伦敦奥运感想 大家好！好久不见了！ For the past few days, I have been glued to 粘住了，眼睛离不开 the TV screen after returning from work. You might have guessed, it’s the Olympics! I am not a sporty person and normally the traditional Brits’ favourites like the football, cricket or rugby just send me straight to sleep 很快让我入睡（没兴趣）. However I think like most occasional sports fans, I couldn’t help myself to be sucked into Olympic fever. I love watching the swimming competitions. Every one of the swimmers looked in fantastic form. And their moves in water were just beautiful, especially when captured in slow motion 慢动作。 Last night’s live event was so gripping 引人入胜。 Michael Phelps first lost to Chad Le Clos in the 200m butterfly by a fraction of a second. And that was supposed to be one of his strongest disciplines. Yet, he bounced back with his team mates to win the 4x200 relay 接力赛 in freestyle 自由泳 just 40 minutes later. It was the moment that he became the most-decorated 得奖牌最多的 Olympian in history with 19 medals. Sensational achievement! Then the night got even better with China’s Ye Shiwen winning her second gold medal in 200m individual medley 混合泳。 It was so fast, over in just a couple of minutes! Such a sweet girl and a well deserved win. As I reluctantly switched of the TV, I got all fired up about 对什么产生很浓的兴趣 swimming. A new resolution is set. I will try to learn at least one swimming style this year. We have access to a pool, a mere 15 meters long and 1.3 meterdeep. Just perfect for beginners． Well, we have the athletics 田径比赛 coming soon, so maybe you will be inspired 受启发by the Olympics and sprint into action 做出行动 as well. I shall keep you posted with my Olympics dreams and if you have any please share with us. Take care Helen |
