用打火机点燃奥运圣火？

When a rainstorm put out the Olympic flame during the 1976 Games in Montreal, organisers watched horrified as a helpful official quickly re-lit it with his cigarette lighter. They then snuffed it out again and re-lit it with a backup torch lit from the original flame.
1976年蒙特利尔奥运会期间，一场暴雨浇灭了奥运圣火，奥运会组织者看到一位帮倒忙的官员迅速用他的打火机重新点燃圣火都吓傻了。他们赶紧把火炬熄灭，然后用一个备用火炬重新点燃了圣火，备用火炬的火种来自最初的奥运圣火。

小编说：奥运圣火怎么能用打火机点燃呢？Too naive！

For the first time in Olympic history, Romania's Nadia Comaneci scored a maximum 10.0 in the uneven bars at Montreal 1976. Scoreboards were unable to cope and so displayed the score as 1.0.
1976年蒙特利尔奥运会上，罗马尼亚选手娜迪亚•科马内奇获得高低杠满分10分，这在奥运会上属于首次。由于记分牌无法显示10分，只好显示其得分为1.0分。

小编说：记分牌设置也太保守了！

The Olympics once lasted 187 days. In 1908, the London Olympics went on for 187 days... they started in April and didn't end until October.
史上历时最久的奥运会持续了187天。1908年的伦敦奥运会4月开幕，到10月才闭幕，一直开了187天。

小编说：开那么久，是一天只比一个项目吗？
