今夏游泳必備時(shí)尚泳衣

 

Speedo
泳褲

The word “speedo” now refers to any *brief-style *spandex swimwear for men. But the name comes from the Australian swimsuit maker Speedo.
“speedo”這個(gè)詞現(xiàn)在用來(lái)指各種簡(jiǎn)潔風(fēng)格的男士緊身彈性泳褲。不過(guò)，這是以澳大利亞泳裝制造商Speedo的名字來(lái)命名的。

Speedos debuted in 1956 at the Melbourne Summer Olympics, where the Speedo-sponsored Australian men’s swim team won eight gold medals. This afforded Speedos worldwide attention.
在1956年墨爾本夏季奧林匹克運(yùn)動(dòng)會(huì)上，這種男士泳褲首次出現(xiàn)，由Speedo贊助的澳大利亞男子游泳隊(duì)摘得了八枚金牌。這使Speedos受到舉世矚目。

Speedos have since become a controversial piece of swimwear. They have become the norm on the beaches of Europe, but American people would rather not have to look at them. According to a survey by travel website Tripadvisor, which questioned 3,800 American respondents, 35 percent said that men in tight-fitting speedos are “a violation of beach etiquette”.
Speedos自此便成為頗受爭(zhēng)議的泳裝。Speedos在歐洲已成為海灘標(biāo)準(zhǔn)著裝，但美國(guó)人卻寧愿對(duì)此視而不見(jiàn)。據(jù)旅行網(wǎng)站Tripadvisor發(fā)起的一項(xiàng)由3800名美國(guó)人參與的問(wèn)卷調(diào)查顯示，有35%的人表示男士穿緊身泳褲違反了“沙灘禮儀”。
