本期內(nèi)容：

For a nation known for its obsession for gold, TeamChina seemed to have had a rough time in Rio deJaneiro.

作為一個(gè)對(duì)金牌癡迷而聞名的國(guó)家，中國(guó)隊(duì)似乎在里約奧運(yùn)會(huì)上備嘗辛酸。

The country came in third place in the gold medalcount at the 2016 Summer Games, trailing theUnited States and Great Britain. Eight years ago inBeijing, China sat on top with a record 51 goldmedals.

在2016年夏季奧運(yùn)會(huì)上，中國(guó)金牌總數(shù)位居第三，緊跟在美國(guó)和英國(guó)之后。而8年前的北京奧運(yùn)會(huì)，中國(guó)以51枚金牌的總數(shù)位居榜首。

Now, analysts and spectators are debating if China has moved beyond its single-mindeddetermination in winning gold.

如今，一些評(píng)論員和觀眾正在討論中國(guó)是否已經(jīng)不再奉行唯金牌論了。

ome see a diminishing role for sports as an outlet for nationalism, thanks to China'seconomic and military ascent on the global stage.

一些人認(rèn)為隨著中國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)和軍事實(shí)力在全球的提升，體育運(yùn)動(dòng)作為展示民族主義的作用正在被弱化。

Others consider funny swimmer Fu Yuanhui's instant popularity a sign of a demographic shiftin Olympic viewing, as younger generations focus more on personalities than results.

一些人則認(rèn)為搞怪的奧運(yùn)會(huì)游泳運(yùn)動(dòng)員傅園慧的爆紅象征著民眾對(duì)奧運(yùn)會(huì)觀念的轉(zhuǎn)變，年輕一代關(guān)注更多的是運(yùn)動(dòng)員的個(gè)人特質(zhì)而不是比賽的結(jié)果。
