On Monday, top US coach John Leonard questioned Chinese teen swimmer Ye Shiwen's record-breaking 400m swim as 'unbelievable' and 'disturbing'. Ye passed a drugs test, while angry Chinese supporters, including Shiwen's father, have hit back at 'the arrogance of the west'. Does Leonard owe Ye Shiwen an apology?
周一,美國隊總教練John Leonard質(zhì)疑中國女子游泳運動員葉詩文,認(rèn)為她400米的破紀(jì)錄之舉乃是令人不安且難以置信的。葉詩文此前已通過藥檢,而憤怒的中國支持者抨擊之前部分“西方媒體的狂妄自負(fù)”,其中就包括葉詩文的父親。如今葉詩文通過藥檢,Leonard是否該為其言論向葉詩文致歉呢?
以下為部分網(wǎng)友留言意見:
TotallyBlunt:When I read about the American coach's comment, I didn't think arrogant West. I thought jealous and unable to accept competition.
“當(dāng)我讀到美國教練的評論時,我認(rèn)為這不是西方的自大。他們?nèi)绱说脑u論僅是自私且不甘接受比賽結(jié)果的體現(xiàn)。”
Brownly:No. He doesn't need to make any special apology.Even though the girl's been cleared, the initial suspicion was fair. Though if asked about it, I hope Leonard will be gracious.
“不,Leonard他沒必要道歉。即便那名中國姑娘已經(jīng)證明其清白,之前的質(zhì)疑也還是公平的。就算Leonard先前質(zhì)疑過,我也還是希望現(xiàn)在他能大度些。”
legaff:As I have said countless times over the past few days, what we are seeing is the investment the Chinese team made in the pool in the lead-up to Beijing (Sun Yang being another who has benefited from their investment). Ye Shiwen is the product of incredible work & scientific selection processes that the China team have been working toward for over a decade. Her performances simply must be applauded rather than doubted.If she wasn't Chinese, I am not sure Leonard would have made his comments public.
“之前幾天我就說過無數(shù)次了,我們看到的是中國隊在北京的準(zhǔn)備期間,為他們的游泳項目大力投入(孫楊也是這些投入的另一受益者)。葉詩文的成功,是科學(xué)的選拔過程和艱苦努力的結(jié)果,中國隊為了這些成就已經(jīng)努力了十幾年。因此她的表現(xiàn)不應(yīng)被質(zhì)疑,而應(yīng)受到表揚。如果她不是中國人,我相信Leonard就不會那么公開地進(jìn)行質(zhì)疑了?!?/div>
ddarko:I look forward to John Leonard questioning the legitimacy of 41-year-old American swimmer Dara Torres winning a silver medal in the 50m freestyle at the Beijing Olympics with a time that set an American record. I expect we'll never hear it.
“我很好奇John Leonard會不會質(zhì)疑北京奧運期間41歲的美國運動員Dara Torres 50米自由泳奪取銀牌的合法性。那個時候Dara也破了美國記錄。我們應(yīng)該從來沒聽過Leonard質(zhì)疑Dara吧!”

旭日陽剛的草根味道得到了大家的認(rèn)可,一首《春天里》的翻唱是不少網(wǎng)友心目中超越原唱的經(jīng)典,但成名后他們的短板開始暴露,即缺少原創(chuàng)。在被“禁唱”《春天里》之后,缺乏原創(chuàng)作品的旭日陽剛究竟該何去何從?

復(fù)旦大學(xué)公開課:王汎森講座《執(zhí)拗的低音》 - “風(fēng)”——一種被忽略的史學(xué)觀念
《執(zhí)拗的低音》主要是王汎森教授對史學(xué)視野的一種再思考。在近代中國,當(dāng)新的思想典范逐漸占據(jù)歷史舞臺時,有不少帶有傳統(tǒng)色彩的學(xué)術(shù)論述被推擠到歷史邊緣,這些思想、論述、視野及方法,值得重新加以檢視。
