“奥林匹克之父”顾拜旦大概不会想到一百多年之后他的祖国在世界体坛已然不再是最耀眼的一环。作为催生1896年第一届现代奥运会的国家之一，法国过往29届奥运会最光辉的一幕是1900年在本土巴黎举行的大赛中以26金坐上了金牌榜头把交椅，而他们近年来最辉煌的纪录则是1996年亚特兰大奥运会以15金排名第5。自此以后，法国体育的权重逐届下滑，直至4年前的北京奥运会，终以7金勉强保住了第10的位置。展望伦敦，法国人的目标是夺取比上一届更多的金牌，力争跻身金牌榜前8位，在英吉利海峡彼岸掀起“蓝色精神”之旋风。

“The father of the Olympics”Coubertin probably won't think of more than one hundred years later his country in the world is no longer the most dazzling has rocked the ring。As gave birth to 1896 at the first modern Olympic Games in one of the countries，The French past 29 th Olympic Games the most glorious scene is 1900 in local Paris contest with 26 gold sits at the head of gold the current campaign，And in recent years to the most brilliant record is the 1996 Atlanta Olympics to 15 gold ranked fifth。Since then，The weight of the French sports by falling，Until four years ago of the Beijing Olympic Games，Finally 7 gold secured the position of the 10 reluctantly。Looking to London，The French's goal is to take on more than the gold medal，Strive to gold's first eight，In the English channel a shore“Blue spirit”Whirlwind of。

现代奥运因法国人而生 The modern Olympic Games for the French born

　　

巴黎曾两次举办奥运会 Paris has been twice of the Olympic Games

　　若论现代奥林匹克运动，不得不提及的人物就是皮埃尔·德·顾拜旦。这个法国人从1896年至1925年担任国际奥林匹克委员会主席，并设计了奥运会会徽、奥运会会旗。基于他为奥林匹克所做的不朽功绩，被国际上誉为“奥林匹克之父”(注：关于顾拜旦的故事，本报曾有独家报道，详见2008年4月22日A8版《寻找“奥林匹克之父”顾拜旦》)。

If of the modern Olympic movement，Have to mention character is Pierre DE coubertin。The French people from 1896 to 1925 as the international Olympic committee，And designed the Olympic emblem、The Olympic flag。Based on his for the Olympic feat of doing，Be as international“The father of the Olympics”(note：About coubertin story，This newspaper has exclusive report，As shown in the April 22, 2008, the A8 version《Looking for“The father of the Olympics”coubertin》)。

　　法国人对于奥运会的热情并不止于顾拜旦，巴黎在1900年和1924年两度把奥运会带到顾拜旦的故乡，成为首个两次主办奥运会的城市。而在2012年奥运会的竞办过程中，巴黎也仅是在最后关头输给了伦敦，遗憾地失去了成为首个3次举办奥运会的城市的机会。

The French for the games and more than passion baron DE coubertin，Paris in 1900 and again in the Olympic Games to coubertin's hometown，Becomes the first two times the city hosts the Olympic Games。And in the 2012 Olympics race do process，Paris is only in the last moment lost to London，Sorry to lose becomes the first 3 times of the city to host the Olympic Games of chance。

　　历史上，除了因世界大战未举行的3届奥运会外，法国仅缺席了1904年美国圣路易斯奥运会。在上世纪50年代以前，法国在奥运会的成绩一直居世界前列，其中在1900年巴黎奥运会甚至排在了金牌榜首位。二战后，法国体育受到重创一蹶不振，直至亚特兰大奥运会才勇夺15金，位居中国之后列第5，然而这在今天看起来更像是昙花一现，接下来的悉尼奥运会和雅典奥运会，法国代表团分别排在第6位和第7位。直至4年前的北京，法国共夺得41枚奖牌，其中金牌7枚，位列金牌榜第10位。

history，In addition to because of world war did not hold the three games，The French only missed the 1904 Olympic Games in st。In the 1950 s before，France on the Olympic Games has been scores high in the world，Which, in the Paris games in 1900 and even in the first row came。After the second world war，The French sports tumbled to dust，Until the Atlanta Olympics gold won only 15，After the fifth column in China，However this in today looks more like a flash in the pan，The next Olympic Games in Sydney and Athens Olympic Games，The French delegation were rows in the sixth and seventh。Until the Beijing four years ago，France won 41 total MEDALS，7 pieces of gold medal，Among the 10 th of gold。

代表团规模近几年最大 The scale of the biggest delegation in recent years

　　法国是一个对体育热情很高的国度，每年有法国网球公开赛和环法自行车赛两大赛事在这里举行，其余各类赛事也经常光临此地。据法国奥委会公布的官方数据，2012年法国共有1600万人注册参与体育活动，占其人口的1/4；而全法国各种类型的大小体育协会竟多达18万个。对于法国人来说，他们的体育代表团目前在奥运会中的地位与其期望值有一定的差距。因此，法兰西军团对奥运会已经有一了明确目标——复兴！

France is a sports enthusiasm for high country，Every year a French open and the tour DE France cycling race two big events held here，The rest of the all kinds of games also regularly here。According to the French Olympic committee official data released，In 2012 there were 16 million people registered for France to take part in physical activities，Accounting for a quarter of the population；And the whole French various types of sports association for the size that as many as 180000。For the French people，Their sports delegation is currently in the position of the Olympic Games with a big gap between the expectations。so，France for the Olympic Games has a legion the clear goal-a revival！

　　据法国的一家媒体公司调查显示，52.8%的法国人对奥运会有兴趣，他们也列出了最受关注的运动员——田径新星克里斯托夫·勒马特雷(81.1%)，这位22岁的小将曾夺得田径欧锦赛100米和200米双料冠军。另外，柔道运动员特迪·里内以76.8%的关注度位居第二，他曾在2007年柔道欧锦赛和世锦赛100公斤以上级夺金，被认为是在伦敦奥运会上最有可能给法国赢得金牌的运动员。

According to a French media companies survey，52.8% of the French people are interested in the Olympic Games，They also lists the most popular athletes-track and field nova Christopher le matt ray(81.1%)，The 22 year-old has won the euro track and field 100 m and 200 m double title。In addition，Judo athletes teddy, to the attention of 76.8% in the second，He was in 2007 and 100 kg judo euro world championships in the gold，Is thought to be in the London games the most likely to win the gold medal to the French athletes。

　　据媒体介绍，法国代表团将会有178名运动员参加伦敦奥运会，包括112名男运动员和66名女运动员，代表团成员将超过340人，超过2000年悉尼奥运会的300人代表团，成为法国近年来派出人数最多的奥运代表团。

“蓝色精神”还看三大王牌 “Blue spirit”Also see three big ace

　　

再让女性任代表团旗手 Let women as delegation flagman

　　此次出征伦敦，法国人将代表团定义为“蓝色精神”。今年5月才跟随新总统上台的法国奥委会主席马斯葛利娅在解释这一理念的时候指出，“蓝色精神”代表着法国的团队精神，因为法国队在各项目体育赛事中都以“蓝色”为代称，这是法国国旗的颜色之一，而这次伦敦奥运，法国队又在“蓝色精神”后面额外加上“奥林匹克之心”，法国奥运代表团的口号就是希望将蓝色团队融入奥林匹克精神中去。

The team at the London，The French people will be defined as the delegation“Blue spirit”。In may this year, just follow the new President of the French national Olympic committee President came to power in GeLiYa javier explain the concept of time points out，“Blue spirit”Represents the French team spirit，Because France in every project sports events to all“blue”For appellation，This is one of the color of the French flag，And the London Olympics，France and in“Blue spirit”Extra plus behind“The heart of the Olympic”，The French Olympic delegation is to hope the slogan of the Olympic spirit into the blue team。

　　

女子佩剑团体遗憾落选 Women's sword group regret the election

　　在伦敦，预计法国队在15个项目上有冲金实力。其中，击剑是法国的传统强项，但随着全球击剑水平的提高，法国已逐渐丧失优势地位，这次法国的女子佩剑团体就没能获得奥运会参赛资格，这让法国奥委会主席马斯葛利娅颇为担忧。不过，法国队在其他项目上还有一定的冲金实力。马斯葛利娅指出，法国体育目前有三大支柱，“我们去年一共获得了8个游泳世界冠军；而在法国本土进行的柔道世锦赛上，我们拿了4枚金牌；至于自行车，我们在场地赛和小轮车上也有世界顶尖级实力。这是法国在伦敦可以依赖的三大王牌。”此外，还有15个~18个项目也被认为有望给法国带来奖牌，其中包括赛艇、皮划艇、帆船帆板、体操和搏击类项目等。

In London，France in 15 sports is expected to have a strong on gold strength。Among them，Fencing is France's traditional strengths，But with global fencing to raise the level of，France has gradually lose advantage position，The French woman had a group did not gain Olympic qualification，This let the French Olympic committee President massey GeLiYa rather worried。but，Other projects in France, there is still a blunt gold strength。Massey GeLiYa said，The French sports there are three pillar，“We have won the last eight swimming champion of the world；In France the world championships local judo，We took four gold MEDALS；As for the bicycle，We in the ChangDeSai and small wheels car also have world-top strength。This is the French in London can rely on three big ace。”In addition，A further 15 ~ 18 project was also thought to the French are expected to bring the MEDALS，Including rowing、kayak、Sailing the panels、Gymnastics and combat kind of project, etc。

　　马斯葛利娅透露：“我们的目标是获得与北京奥运会时同样多的奖牌(7金16银17铜)，而在金牌总数上达到两位数。”为此，马斯葛利娅甚至呼吁侨居英国的法国公民一起到赛场为同胞打气。而在赛场上，法国体育要想实现“大翻身”，最关键的恐怕还是要看女将是否给力，能否改变“阳盛阴衰”的局面。

Massey GeLiYa disclosed：“Our goal is to acquire and the Beijing Olympic Games in the same MEDALS(7 gold and silver and bronze)，And in the gold medal amounts to two digits。”For this，Massey GeLiYa even called for an English French citizens go to court for compatriots strength。And on the field，The French sports want to achieve“The Irish republic”，The key to see whether I'm afraid or rites to force，Can be changed“YangCheng Yin failure”situation。

　　

几名热门女将成关注点 Some of the popular side kelly into concerns

　　在北京奥运会上，法国的7枚金牌中的6金都是由男子运动员获得，所以为了重振女子运动员的士气，此次法国奥运代表团将关注点放在了几位热门的女子运动员身上，其中有我们熟悉的法国游泳名将马努多，状态不断回升的她有望冲击奥运金牌，还有跆拳道世锦赛冠军格拉迪斯和羽毛球老将皮红艳。

In the Beijing Olympic Games，France six of the seven gold MEDALS from the man who won the gold are both，So in order to revitalize the morale of the female athletes，The French Olympic delegation will focus on a few popular on female athletes，Among them are our familiar France's manu swimming，State of the expected to impact she constantly picks up the Olympic gold medal，And taekwondo world champion rafael Gladstone and badminton veteran cheery red or bright red skin。

　　值得一提的是，法国奥委会甚至还宣布由曾拿过两枚奥运金牌的击剑运动员劳拉·弗雷塞尔担任法国代表团旗手，这也是法国历史上第3位女奥运旗手。1971年出生的弗雷塞尔从1996年到2004年的3届奥运会勇夺2金2银1铜，还拿过3次击剑世锦赛重剑团体冠军和一次亚军，此次将是她第5次征战奥运会。时隔16年再度选择女将作为奥运旗手，“法国兵团”是否希望“复制”16年前的辉煌呢？让我们拭目以待。

It is，The French Olympic committee even also announced from once took the two gold MEDALS of fencing athletes Laura Frey as France's delegation flagman，This is also the history of France third female Olympic flagman。Born in 1971's Fred from 1996 to 2004 years of 3 th Olympic Games won 2 gold, 2 silver and a bronze，Still took up three fencing world championship winning group and a heavy jian runner-up，This will be her fifth in the Olympic Games。After 16 years as the Olympic flag-bearer rites choice again，“The French army corps”If I want to“copy”16 years ago? The brilliant？Let's wait and see。

中法奥运之争 In the battle of the law

　　

游泳击剑体操赛艇是重点 Swimming fencing gymnastics rowing is key

　　曾经辉煌的法国体育如今实力不如往昔，从整体上已经难以对中国军团构成威胁，不过，志在进入总金牌榜前8位的法国代表团在若干项目上仍然是中国健儿冲金路上的绊脚石。

Once brilliant French sports now strength as the past，From the whole of China's army has been difficult to a threat，but，Aim at the total came into the first eight French delegation in several projects in China is still on the way of gold rush athletes stumbling block。

　　法国军团4年前在北京奥运会夺得7金，分别是手球、山地自行车、小轮车越野、击剑(2枚)、游泳和摔跤。4年过后，游泳和击剑依然是法国的王牌项目，不过，法国游泳与中国泳军直接“交锋”的领域并不多，除了中国女将要小心已为人母再度复出的“法国美人鱼”马努多外，有法国“鱼雷”之称的阿格内尔与中国游泳队的最大争金希望孙杨将在200米和400米自由泳比赛中相遇。

The French army in Beijing Olympic Games four years ago won seven gold，Is handball respectively、Mountain bike、Small tricycle cross-country、fencing(2 pieces)、Swimming and wrestling。Four years later，Swimming and fencing is still French ace project，but，The French army with Chinese swimmers swim directly“clash”The field is not much，In addition to the Chinese side kelly careful was mother back again“The French mermaid”Manu outside more，French“torpedo”Said the agger Neil and China's swimming team for the biggest gold SunYang hope will be the 200 m and 400 m freestyle to meet in game。

　　如果说泳池里的中法之争还不算十分激烈的话，那么击剑场上的中法比拼就堪称白热化了。法国击剑队上届奥运会夺得两金，其中包括中国队原本也有些想法的男子佩剑团体。时隔4年，双方的形势都发生了很大变化，上届由仲满实现突破的中国佩剑成绩下滑明显，中法的击剑之争如今主要集中在花剑上。2010年，中国男子花剑在法国世锦赛上逆转意大利夺冠，实现了历史性突破。而去年在意大利，中国男子花剑队成功卫冕，在决赛中击败的对手正是法国队。那一战中国队仅以45比44险胜，而今年再战伦敦，中国男子花剑经历了“队员选拔风波”，是否会分神以至于给对手留下可乘之机呢？对于中国击剑队来说，另一个冲金点——女子重剑同样将面临法国人的挑战。去年的击剑世锦赛，新老结合的中国女子重剑队在团体1/4决赛碰到法国队，老将李娜在最后一场落后3剑的情况下力挽狂澜，帮助队伍晋级4强，最终获得一枚银牌。可以预见，今年夏天在伦敦，中法女子剑客必有一番恶战。

If the pool in the battle of the method is not very fierce words，So the competition in the fencing method is quite as......。France won two gold JiJianDui the last Olympics，Including China was also some ideas of group when men wore swords。After four years，The situation of both parties have changed a lot，The last full by looking breakthrough of Chinese sword grades slipped obvious，In the battle of the fencing method now mainly focus on the foil。2010 years，Chinese man foil in France fiba world championship title reverse Italy，Realize the historic breakthrough。And last year in Italy，Chinese man HuaJianDui win the title，In the final defeated opponent is France。The world only to China than 45 44 narrow one，And this fight again London，Chinese man foil experience“Team selection storm”，Whether that will give to leave an opponent？For China JiJianDui speaking，Another point-women's epee blunt gold will also face the challenge of French。The fencing world championships last year，Old and new combination of the Chinese women's epee team in the group quarter-final encounter against France，Veteran li na in the final 3 under the condition of the sword behind 9-2，Help the team four strong promotion，Eventually earned a silver medal。Can foresee，In London this summer，There will be a woman in law swordsman set。

　　除了游泳和击剑外，法国队在赛艇和皮划艇项目中将成为中国队夺牌路上的拦路虎。此外，法国体操近年来也取得了一些进步，对于曾在北京书写辉煌的中国体操队而言，“法国黑马”今年绝对不容小觑。

Except for swimming and fencing outside，France in rowing and canoeing project team will be taken on brand obstacle。In addition，The French gymnastics in recent years has also made some progress，For once in Beijing writing brilliant for Chinese gymnastics team，“The French dark horse”This year the absolute acceptance。
