Boy wizard Harry Potter played an important part in Norwegian swimmer Sara Nordenstam's bronze in the women's 200 breaststroke at the Beijing Olympics on Friday.
挪威選手莎拉·諾爾登斯坦在周五舉行的女子200米蛙泳比賽中摘得了一枚奧運會的銅牌,小巫師哈利波特起了很重要的作用。
While American Michael Phelps uses hip-hop music to help with his mental preparations, Nordenstam admitted the fantasy books about a teenage wizard and his mystical world written by J.K. Rowling had helped relaxed her before the final.
美國人邁克爾·菲爾普斯用嘻哈音樂幫助自己做賽前準備,而這位挪威選手說她在決賽前讀J.K.羅琳寫的這套關于一個十幾歲的小巫師和他的魔法世界的魔幻故事來放松自己。
"Each to his own," she told Reuters after finishing behind American Rebecca Soni and Australia's Leisel Jones in the final.
決賽結束后,排在美國的麗貝卡·索尼和澳大利亞的雷賽爾·瓊斯之后的莎拉對路透社的記者說:“蘿卜青菜,各有所愛。”
"I was very nervous and I needed something to calm me down and I listen to the Harry Potter books because your mind goes off to a magical world and it's great because I was able to keep my nerves in control."
“我非常的緊張,需要什么東西讓我鎮定下來,后來我聽哈利波特的書,因為它能讓你的思緒離開賽場來到魔法世界。這讓我能控制我自己的緊張情緒,我覺得好極了。”
The seven-book Potter saga by Rowling smashed publishing records, became a worldwide bestseller, spawned a series of box office smash hit adaptations and taught a whole new generation of children about the joy of reading.
羅琳的七部哈利波特打破了出版記錄,變成了世界范圍的暢銷書,小說改編的電影創造了一系列的票房紀錄,也教會了新一代的孩子們閱讀的樂趣。
"I have read them all, I have seen all the movies and I have listened to the audio books as well. It worked really well today," Nordenstam said.
諾爾登斯坦說“我讀過全套的書,看過全部的電影,也聽了語音書,今天它起了很大的作用。”
