> Word of the day丨men's 100m freestyle of swimming
每日一词丨男子100米自由泳
China's Pan Zhanle set a new world record as he stormed to victory in the men's 100m freestyle final at the Paris Olympics on July 31. Pan touched the wall in 46.40 seconds.
7月31日,在巴黎奥运会游泳项目男子100米自由泳决赛中,中国选手潘展乐以46秒40的成绩夺冠并打破世界纪录。
【知识点】
游泳这一行为的出现可以追溯到史前时代,但直到十九世纪,游泳才被作为一项竞技体育运动而被接受。游泳从1896年首届现代奥运会开始从未缺席过奥运会,最初的奥运会游泳比赛采用的泳姿为自由泳(爬泳)或蛙泳。如今,奥运会的游泳比赛在长度为50米的泳池里进行,比赛分为个人赛和接力赛,包含四大泳姿的比赛——蛙泳、蝶泳、仰泳和爬泳;爬泳主要运用在自由泳比赛中,所以爬泳也可以称为自由泳。
男子100米自由泳是竞技游泳比赛项目之一。此前,男子100米自由泳世界纪录是46秒86,由罗马尼亚选手波波维奇于2022年8月13日在欧洲游泳锦标赛上创造,后来这一纪录被中国运动员潘展乐在2024年多哈游泳世锦赛上以46秒80的成绩打破。
2024年7月31日,巴黎奥运会游泳比赛在拉德芳斯体育馆继续进行,潘展乐以46秒40的成绩夺得男子100米自由泳冠军,并打破自己保持的世界纪录。这是中国游泳运动员首次登上该项目奥运最高领奖台,潘展乐也是巴黎奥运会游泳赛场首位打破世界纪录的运动员。
