“冰絲帶”舞動神州，“雪如意”靈動八方。為服務冬奧會籌辦工作，市政府外辦聯合北京外語廣播制作“牽手冬奧”市民講外語公益講座，用中英雙語介紹北京冬奧會比賽項目和主要場館，普及宣傳冬奧知識。在北京冬奧會倒計時100天之際，小編帶你一起分三期學習這些冬奧詞匯用英文怎么說！
冬殘奧會部分比賽項目
1. Wheelchair Curling 輪椅冰壺
Wheelchair curling is an adaptation of curling for athletes with a disability affecting their lower limbs or gait. It is played with the same rocks and on the same ice as regular curling, though the rocks are thrown from a stationary wheelchair and there is no sweeping. Rocks may be thrown by hand while leaning over the side of the wheelchair, or pushed by a delivery stick.
輪椅冰壺是為下肢有殘疾或者走路不便的運動員設計的比賽。輪椅冰壺運動員必須坐在輪椅上進行比賽，比賽采用和健全人同樣的規則，差別僅在于輪椅冰壺比賽沒有刷冰，且投壺者必需在固定的輪椅上擲壺。除了可以用手擲壺外，還可以用投擲桿擲壺。
2. Para cross-country skiing 殘奧滑雪
Para cross-country skiing first appeared at the 1976 Winter Paralympic Games in Sweden. The competition is open to athletes with a physical impairment and vision impairment. As a recreational activity, it is widely practiced among winter sport lovers; however, some still use it as a means of transportation.
