奧運會體育項目 | 射箭 Archery

The object of archery is simple: to shoot arrows as close to the centre of a target as possible. Olympic Archery targets are 122cm in diameter with a series of ten concentric scoring rings, separated into five colours. The inner colour, the gold, scores ten or nine points. (The 'ten’ measures just 12.2cm in diameter — about the size of an apple). Archers shoot at the target from a distance of 70m — which is the wingspan of two medium-range planes sat side-by-side.

射箭運動的目標(biāo)非常簡單：盡可能將箭射向靶心，越接近靶心越好。奧運會射箭運動的環(huán)靶直徑122厘米，帶有十個同心圓環(huán)，分為五種顏色。中心為金黃色，射中得10分或9分。（“十”環(huán)直徑只有12.2厘米，大小大約等于一張音樂CD）。弓箭手從距離70米處將箭射出，這個距離比奧運會游泳池的長度還長。

Overview 概述

Archery dates back over 10,000 years, when bows and arrows were first used for hunting and warfare, before it developed as a competitive activity in medieval England. There are several variants, including target archery, where competitors shoot at stationary targets on a flat range; and field archery, which involves shooting at targets of varying and often unmarked distance, typically in woodland and rough terrain. Only target archery is an Olympic sport, practised in more than 140 countries around the world.

射箭的歷史可以追溯到大約1萬年前，當(dāng)時弓箭被用于狩獵和戰(zhàn)爭。在中世紀(jì)時期的英格蘭，射箭逐漸發(fā)展成為一種競技運動。射箭有多種運動形式，包括標(biāo)的射箭和越野射箭。標(biāo)的射箭是指運動員遠(yuǎn)距離瞄準(zhǔn)處于同一水平面的固定箭靶完成射箭；越野射箭的射箭距離不固定，比賽通常在叢林和崎嶇的路面上進(jìn)行。只有標(biāo)的射箭是奧運會競賽項目，這項運動在全球超過140個國家開展。

Archery made its Olympic debut at Paris 1900 and also featured in 1908 and 1920. But the rules were inconsistent and entirely dependent on the host country, making it difficult for the athletes. After a 52-year gap, the modernised sport was reintroduced at Munich 1972 and has remained on the Olympic programme ever since. At Tokyo 2020, athletes will compete in men's and women's individual events, men's and women's team events and a mixed team event. The mixed team event is a new addition to the Olympic programme.

射箭在1900年巴黎奧運會上首次亮相，1908年奧運會后被移出奧運會競賽項目，之后在1920年奧運會上曇花一現(xiàn)。時隔52年之后，射箭再次重返奧運舞臺是在1972年慕尼黑奧運會上，自此以后一直是奧運會正式比賽項目。在2020年東京奧運會上，運動員將參加男子、女子個人比賽，男子、女子團(tuán)體賽以及混合團(tuán)體賽?；旌蠄F(tuán)體賽是東京運會新增項目。
