巴黎為申奧把整個市中心變運動場 塞納河上建跑道

為全力申辦2024年奧運會，巴黎在23日和24日把整個城市的中心地帶變成運動場，向民眾推廣奧運會體育項目，并組織市民參加運動體驗。跳水選手從亞歷山大三世大橋上的跳水板躍入塞納河，蹦床運動員以小皇宮博物館的天花板為背景翻轉跳躍。塞納河上還搭起一條漂浮跑道，奧運會柔道冠軍泰迪?瑞納和其他法國體育明星在賽道上進行娛樂賽跑。

Paris’ show comes ahead of a crucial IOC meeting in July that could decide to pick the 2024 and 2028 Olympic host cities both at once — in a final vote in September in Lima, Peru. The only question would then be which city gets which Games. Paris says it is bidding only for 2024.
在巴黎的體育秀之后，7月份將迎來一場至關重要的國際奧委會會議，會上將同時挑選出2024年和2028年的奧運會主辦城市。9月份在秘魯利馬進行最終投票，決定每座城市分別舉辦哪屆奧運會。而巴黎表示，他們只申辦2024年奧運會。
