Amid deafening cheers at the converted rugby stadium, the 100 metres freestyle world record holder Pan Zhanle brought China home with an outrageous swim as he, Xu Jiayu, Qin Haiyang and Sun Jiajun won in a time of three minutes, 27.46 seconds.
在現(xiàn)場(chǎng)震耳欲聾的歡呼聲中，在男子100米自由泳比賽中打破世界紀(jì)錄的潘展樂和徐嘉余、覃海洋、孫佳俊四人合力以3分27秒46的驚人成績(jī)奪冠。

> Word of the day丨men's 100m freestyle of swimming
每日一詞丨男子100米自由泳

China's Pan Zhanle set a new world record as he stormed to victory in the men's 100m freestyle final at the Paris Olympics on July 31. Pan touched the wall in 46.40 seconds.
7月31日，在巴黎奧運(yùn)會(huì)游泳項(xiàng)目男子100米自由泳決賽中，中國(guó)選手潘展樂以46秒40的成績(jī)奪冠并打破世界紀(jì)錄。

【知識(shí)點(diǎn)】
游泳這一行為的出現(xiàn)可以追溯到史前時(shí)代，但直到十九世紀(jì)，游泳才被作為一項(xiàng)競(jìng)技體育運(yùn)動(dòng)而被接受。游泳從1896年首屆現(xiàn)代奧運(yùn)會(huì)開始從未缺席過奧運(yùn)會(huì)，最初的奧運(yùn)會(huì)游泳比賽采用的泳姿為自由泳（爬泳）或蛙泳。如今，奧運(yùn)會(huì)的游泳比賽在長(zhǎng)度為50米的泳池里進(jìn)行，比賽分為個(gè)人賽和接力賽，包含四大泳姿的比賽——蛙泳、蝶泳、仰泳和爬泳；爬泳主要運(yùn)用在自由泳比賽中，所以爬泳也可以稱為自由泳。

男子100米自由泳是競(jìng)技游泳比賽項(xiàng)目之一。此前，男子100米自由泳世界紀(jì)錄是46秒86，由羅馬尼亞選手波波維奇于2022年8月13日在歐洲游泳錦標(biāo)賽上創(chuàng)造，后來這一紀(jì)錄被中國(guó)運(yùn)動(dòng)員潘展樂在2024年多哈游泳世錦賽上以46秒80的成績(jī)打破。

2024年7月31日，巴黎奧運(yùn)會(huì)游泳比賽在拉德芳斯體育館繼續(xù)進(jìn)行，潘展樂以46秒40的成績(jī)奪得男子100米自由泳冠軍，并打破自己保持的世界紀(jì)錄。這是中國(guó)游泳運(yùn)動(dòng)員首次登上該項(xiàng)目奧運(yùn)最高領(lǐng)獎(jiǎng)臺(tái)，潘展樂也是巴黎奧運(yùn)會(huì)游泳賽場(chǎng)首位打破世界紀(jì)錄的運(yùn)動(dòng)員。
