About Basketball (Olympic sport since 1936)
篮球概述(1936年成为奥运会正式比赛项目)
  For 36 years after basketball entered the Olympic Games as a full medal sport for men,the question was not who would win,but who would finish second.The United States owned the game,and not just because it was invented there.
  在男子篮球成为正式的奥运会比赛项目之后的36年中,人们关注的焦点并不是谁会赢得冠军,而是亚军的归属.美国是这项运动的主宰,这并不仅仅是因为篮球起源于美国.
  The Soviet Union took home the gold when they toppled the US team in a controversial 1972 game.After another semi-final victory for the Soviets in 1988,the sport opened to professionals.Once again,the question became who would finish second.In Barcelona in 1992,with a squad featuring some of the world’s best-known athletes - Michael Jordan,Magic Johnson and Larry Bird - the gold-medal winning US "Dream Team" gave an exhibition of basketball at its best.
  苏联曾在1972的一场有争议的比赛中击败了美国,获得了奥运金牌.在1988年苏联再次击败美国赢得奥运会篮球半决赛的胜利后,奥运会篮球赛向职业选手敞开了大门,于是人们关注的焦点又成了谁将获得亚军.在1992年的巴塞罗那奥运会上,拥有迈克尔·乔丹、魔术师约翰逊、拉里·伯德等著名职业选手的美国“梦之队”上演了一场精彩绝伦的表演赛.
  Women’s basketball hasn’t been quite such a one-sided affair.Since it joined the Olympic programme in 1976,the gold medals have been divided between the US,the Soviet Union and,after the break-up of the Soviet Union,the Commonwealth of Independent States.
  而女子篮球的决赛就不是一边倒了.自从1976成为奥运会正式比赛项目之后,冠军起初是由美国和苏联分享,在苏联解体后则有美国和独联体来争夺.
