Bizarre

男子馬拉松比賽可謂是本屆奧運(yùn)會(huì)的收山之作，然而神話迭現(xiàn)的雅典又在最后時(shí)刻讓人們大跌眼鏡——在離終點(diǎn)還有約7公里時(shí)，一個(gè)頭戴綠色貝雷帽、身著紅色短裙、腿裹一雙綠色及膝長襪的男子突然沖出人群，將當(dāng)時(shí)處于領(lǐng)先位置的巴西隊(duì)員范德萊·利馬連扭帶拽推到了觀眾群中。雖然利馬最終仍堅(jiān)持完成了比賽，但心神大亂的他只獲得了銅牌。外電報(bào)道如下：Everyone knew the marathon was going to be tough, but having to dodge a would-be tackler in a kilt, green beret and matching knee-high socks wasn't an expected obstacle. It was definitely a bizarre way to end the Olympics. Even the highly unusual fact that an American won a silver medal paled in comparison. Bizarre表示“奇異的，古怪的”，例如：bizarre clothing（奇裝異服）；The story has a certain bizarre interest.（這個(gè)故事聽起來別有風(fēng)趣。） 據(jù)悉，國際奧委會(huì)事后發(fā)表聲明稱：由于利馬的堅(jiān)忍不拔突出體現(xiàn)了奧林匹克公平競(jìng)賽的原則和精神，我們打算為他頒發(fā)一枚“皮埃爾·德·顧拜旦勛章”。
