CNN News: 平昌冬奧會(huì)倒計(jì)時(shí)一周年

We are officially one year away from the next Olympics, the 2018 Winter Olympics. They kick off next February in Pyeongchang, South Korea. The city is east of Seoul, in the northern part of the country.

距離2018年冬奧會(huì)還有一年的時(shí)間。2018年冬奧會(huì)將于明年2月份在韓國(guó)平昌舉行。平昌位于韓國(guó)北部，首都首爾的東部。

Though South Korea has hosted the games before, there had been four new events added for the 2018 Olympics. Alpine skiing will have a mixed team event. Curling will have a mixed doubles event. Speed skating will have what`s being called a mass start event. And for snowboarders, a big air event makes its debut.

在韓國(guó)舉辦2018年冬奧會(huì)之前，已經(jīng)增加了四項(xiàng)新的項(xiàng)目：高山滑雪混合團(tuán)體賽、冰壺混合雙人賽、速度滑冰集體出發(fā)、單板滑雪大跳臺(tái)。

There are a number of challenges that any city faces when hosting the Olympics. For one thing, it`s incredibly expensive. Billions and billions are spent. Venues have to be built. Security has to be arranged.

舉辦奧運(yùn)會(huì)的城市都會(huì)面臨很多的難題。其中一個(gè)，就是耗資巨大。將會(huì)花費(fèi)數(shù)十億美元。

建設(shè)新的場(chǎng)館，同時(shí)確保安全。

Host countries are under the international media microscope for everything, from their weather, to how they manage housing changes, to their political conditions.

舉辦國(guó)家同時(shí)也要接受?chē)?guó)際媒體的細(xì)微觀察，例如天氣、如何管理住房變化、政治形勢(shì)等等。

South Korea`s president, Park Geun-hye was impeached in December and a court is deciding whether to permanently remove her from a power, as a major investigation is made concerning the nation`s political scandal.

韓國(guó)總統(tǒng)樸槿惠去年12月份被彈劾，由于政治丑聞，法院決定是否讓其下臺(tái)。

But on the other side of those challenges is the chance for Pyeongchang to shine as the backdrop of a beloved international sporting event, one that brings together athletes, families, fans and photographs from all corners of the globe.

但是在這些難題的另一面就是平昌在備受矚目的國(guó)際體育盛世下會(huì)繁榮，因?yàn)槠鋵?huì)聚集全球各地運(yùn)動(dòng)員、家庭、分子以及焦點(diǎn)。
