 Multiple Olympic track cycling gold medallist Chris Hoy has been confirmed as Team GB’s flag bearer at the opening ceremony for the London 2012 Olympics Games on Friday, July 27.

奥林匹克场地自行车多枚奖牌和金牌获得者克里斯霍伊,已经确定将在2012年伦敦奥运会中担任开幕式中英国代表团旗手。
Preparing to compete in his fourth Olympic Games, Hoy was also given the honour of carrying the flag at the closing ceremony at the Beijing Olympics in 2008.
霍伊此前在2008年北京奥运会的闭幕式上也是担任英国团的旗手。现在他正在准备他的第四次奥林匹克征程。
Hoy will be the first cyclist ever to carry the flag at an opening ceremony, and his selection comes after what has been a proud month for the 36-year-old after he carried the Olympic Torch through Manchester last month.
霍伊将是第一个在开幕式中担任旗手的自行车赛车手。此前一个月里这位36岁的老将可谓是惊喜不断——他带着奥运火炬一路穿过曼切斯特。
When asked about his appointment as Team GB flag bearer, Hoy said:
在问到成为英国团旗手的感受时,他说:
“It really is something special and to be able to be there in my role with the home support is a unique experience and I’m just so happy that I have this chance to do it.”
“这种感觉真的很特别,会让我难忘。同时有家人的支持,这感觉更独特了,我很高兴自己能有机会成为旗手。”
“I remember watching the opening ceremony at Sydney 2000 from our accommodation because we were competing on the second day and just being so excited by it. I really hoped I would get the chance to be involved one day, so to get this opportunity is fantastic.”
“我还记得在2000年悉尼奥运会上我们在住处观看开幕式的情景,那时我第二天要参加比赛,虽然没有加入代表团,但同样兴奋难耐。那时我真希望自己也成为其中的一员,所以现在美梦成真,真的是很奇妙”
While some sports that compete early have chosen to miss the Opening Ceremony, more than 50 percent of the 542-strong Team GB contingent is expected to march at the event.
不过有些比赛项目开始时间较早,所以这个542人组成的强大代表团中,将有超过一半的人选择不参加开幕式。
Despite British Cycling’s athletes mostly being at their training base in Wales, Hoy will now travel to the capital specially to take part in the Opening Ceremony.
因为目前英国自行车队的运动员绝大多数还在威尔士的训练基地进行训练,霍伊只好单独前往首都参加开幕式。
For the first time, Hoy’s fellow Team GB athletes have had a say in his selection. Previously decided by Team GB officials and Team Leaders, their shortlist of nine athletes was then put to the 31 athlete representatives to decide who would carry the flag.
霍伊的当选是迄今为止英国代表团内一致通过的。先前官方团队和领队选出的最终候选人名单中有九名候选人,然后这份名单交由31名运动员代表决定最终的旗手。
Hoy now enters a select group of Olympic greats who have also carried the flag, including Mark Foster, Kate Howey and Steve Redgrave.
现在霍伊也进入了英国奥运名人堂成员组成的旗手团,这其中有马克·佛斯特、凯特·豪威和斯蒂芬·雷德格雷夫。
The most successful male in British track cycling history, Hoy has only once finished outside the top five in an Olympic race, and is expected to boost his personal medal tally from four gold medals as Team GB look to beat their Beijing tally.
作为英国最成功的场地自行车男车手,霍伊只有一次没能打进决赛强,并且这一次霍伊很有希望刷新自己的四枚个人将牌,并带领团队刷新他们在北京奥运会上的奖牌数目。
