The outcome is that Britain could step out of the shadows from longtime Olympic powerhouses such as the U.S., China and Russia and make some headlines of its own. Goldman Sachs & Co. forecasts Britain will win more gold medals than Russia this summer, a potential upset that would mark a major milestone in Olympic history. The bank's analysts estimate Britain will win 65 medals overall, 38% more than it did in 2008.
结果是,英国有可能会走出美国、中国和俄罗斯等传统奥运强国的阴影,并且还有望制造出一些头条资讯。高盛(Goldman Sachs & Co.)预测英国今年夏天赢的金牌将超过俄罗斯,这种可能的结果或许会成为奥运史上的一个重要里程碑。高盛的分析师预测英国将赢得65枚奖牌,比2008年多出38%。
'This is not about taking part. It's about winning,' said Liz Nicholl, chief executive of U.K. Sport, the agency tasked with winning Olympic medals for Britain.
负责英国夺取奥运奖牌事宜的机构“英国体育”(U.K. Sport)的首席执行长尼科尔(Liz Nicholl)说,不仅仅是参与,关键是要赢。
Nicholl predicts the U.K. will see its best performance in modern times this summer. 'I have no doubt about it, actually,' she said. Since persuading the government to hand over extra money in 2006, the U.K. team has enjoyed 'optimal funding,' she said.
尼科尔预测,今年夏天英国将看到自己在现代奥运史上最突出的表现。她说,事实上我对此毫不怀疑。她说,从2006年说服政府划拨更多资金以来,英国队就享受到了“最优厚的资助”。
