历届奥运会回顾:1924年巴黎奥运会

1924年巴黎奥运会首次引入了“更快、更高、更强”(Citius, Altius, Fortius)的奥林匹克格言,并在闭幕式上首次进行了升旗仪式,会场上同时升起了国际奥委会、本届奥运会主办国和下届奥运会主办国的国旗。同时,中国有3名网球选手参加了这届奥运会的网球比赛,但预赛时即被淘汰。尽管他们是在澳大利亚参加“戴维斯杯网球赛”后自行去参赛的,但这却是中国人首次出现在奥运会的赛场上。

PARIS  1924 Games of the VIII Olympiad

  At the 1924 Paris Games, the Olympic motto, "Citius, Altius, Fortius", (Swifter, Higher, Stronger) was introduced, as was the Closing Ceremony ritual of raising three flags: the flag of the International Olympic Committee, the flag of the host nation and the flag of the next host nation. The number of participating nations jumped from 29 to 44, signaling widespread acceptance of the Olympics as a major event, as did the presence of 1,000 journalists.

  Women's fencing made its debut as Ellen Osiier of Denmark earned the gold medal without losing a single bout. Johnny Weissmuller of the United States won two gold medals in swimming on 20 July alone. That same day he earned a bronze medal in water polo. He later went to Hollywood and starred as Tarzan in twelve movies. American swimmer Gertrude Ederle won a bronze medal in the 100m freestyle.

  Two years later she caused a sensation by becoming the first woman to swim across the English Channel (La Manche) - and in a time almost two hours faster than any man had ever achieved. Finnish runner Paavo Nurmi, won five gold medals to add to the three he had won in 1920. His most spectacular performance occurred on 10 July. First he easily won the 1,500m. Then, a mere 55 minutes later, he returned to the track and won the 5,000m. Nurmi’s teammate, Ville Ritola, did not do badly either in 1924: he won four gold medals and two silver.
