我是一个日本人，超过一半的人反对将奥林匹克运动会在日本东京举办，你同意奥林匹克运动会在日本举办吗？

对奥运会有兴趣

Olympics, a multi-nation multi-sport event that happens once in every four years, is the greatest sport spectacle in the World. The last time an Olympics event happened was in 2016 at Rio De Janeiro, Brazil. It was due to happen in 2020 at Tokyo, Japan in 2020. But it got postponed owing to the pandemic.

奥林匹克是一个每四年举办一次的多种国家，多种运动相结合的体育盛事，并且还是世界上最壮观的体育景观。上一次奥林匹克举办于2016年巴西的里约热内卢，并且本来下一次的预期举办于2020年日本东京，但是由于疫情奥林匹克被推迟于2021年举办

A report suggested that almost 60% of the citizens in Japan do not want the Olympics to happen at Tokyo this year. Let's keep aside the public opinion and look at the factors threatening the event.

一个研究表明超过百分之六十的日本人不想今年的奥林匹克运动会在东京举行，让我们将大众的意见至于一旁，来看一看威胁这一事件发生的各种因素。

· Pandemic situation around the world.
· Not so safe bio bubbles.
· Crowd pulling out of the stadium.
· Logistics difficulties.
· Quarantine getting over the athletes.
Now have a look at the active cases in Tokyo as of May 16, 2021.

1：全球紧迫的疫情情形
2：不太安全的生物泡沫
3：拥挤的人群离开运动场
4：物流上的各种困难
5：运动员经历的疫情隔离期
现在让我们看一下2021年五月十六日东京的新增病例

So the covid isn't out of Tokyo yet. This might not let the organisers to allow the crowd into the stadium. That would lead to a huge loss of money in the event.

所以新冠疫情目前并没有离开东京，这个或许会让这些控制新冠疫情传播的人不许观众进入运动场，这个或许会造成在这个体育项目中大量的钱财的丧失。

Logistics management is an issue during the pandemic. The strict quarantine rules might not let the athletes to be in a right mental frx.

在疫情中物流一直是一个很大的问题，严格的检疫制度可能会破坏运动员发挥时的心理状态。

Let's see what happened to some of the sports events of recent-

现在让我们看一下一些体育事项的近况

Cricket

板球

· The Indian Premier league (IPL) 2021 got postponed owing to bio bubble breaches across teams.

· 2021年印度将举办的超级联赛由于疫情期间危险的生物泡沫跨团队传播而不得不推迟

· The Pakistan Premier league (PSL) 2021 got postponed owing to covid.

· 2021年巴基斯坦的超级联赛由于疫情也推迟了

In Olympics, there'd be more than 20 sports and maintainance would be a lot tougher compared to a single sport event.

奥林匹克，由于相比较于一个体育项目，这里有超过20多个体育赛事，所以将会面临更大的困难。

Badminton

羽毛球

· In the Thailand open 2021 earlier this year, some players like Saina Nehwal, HS Pranoy etc. were tested positive in the tournament.

在泰国在2021年早期举办的体育赛事，有些运动员例如赛娜内瓦尔等人，在比赛时被监测出了阳性

It'd be a big threat if an athlete tests positive in Olympics as it can easily spread out when compared to single sports events.

与一般的体育赛事相比，一旦在奥林匹克运动会上检测到了呈阳性，它将会更容易传播并且成为一个巨大的威胁。

Tennis

网球

· In the Australian open 2021 earlier this year, the entry of crowd was banned midway through the tournament owing to covid surge.

· 在2021年早些时期澳大利亚，由于新冠疫情，在锦标赛快开始时，有些观众在被禁止进入。

If the crowd won't be allowed to the stadiums, then there'd be no point in hosting the event.

如果这些观众不允许进入运动场，那么举办这些体育赛事将会没有意义

I'm a big fan of the Olympics and have been eagerly waiting for the event to happen. But not at the cost of the safety of the athletes. In my opinion, it’d be better to postpone the event until everything would be ideal to host the event.

我是奥林匹克运动会的一个狂热粉丝并且迫切的等待着这个体育赛事的发生。但是我们却不能以运动员的生命为代价。依我来看，最好推迟这个运动会直到全部情况变得理想再来举办

As a matter of fact, this is a rather tough decision. Your question is to agree or not that the Olympics be hosted in Japan. We should understand that modern Olympics is not only a sport event, it involves a lot of commercial interests, which personally I believe is contaminating the Olympics.

事实上，这是一个十分艰难的决定，你的问题是是否在日本举办奥林匹克运动会，我们应该知道现代的奥林匹克运动会不仅仅只是一个体育赛事，它还包含了很多在我眼中污染了奥林匹克运动会的商业利益

However, to speak fair and square, the Japanese government has not been shutting down the country and to a large extent, live has been quite normal until recently when there are mutations of the virus and infected cases spike again.

然而，说话要公正，日本政府并没有封锁这个国家，并且在一定程度上这个国家生活的和平常一样直到最近新冠疫情出现了变异株才再次影响了奥林匹克运动会的举办。

The games is 2 months from now and there is still time for things to improve. Taking into considerations that there are less than 20,000 sportsman and coaches, supporting members from the participating countries, then the officials, judges and other supporting personals, if sufficient safety precautions are taken, I believe there can still be a safe game

距离奥林匹克运动会的举办还有两个月，但是日本依旧还有些东西需要时间去准备，将来自不同国家的少于两万的运动员，教练以及各种各样的辅助人员，然后是政府官员，裁判，支持人员纳入考虑之中，如果采取了大量的安全方面的预防措施，我相信这依旧可以是一个安全的比赛。

Japan is OK place to host 2021 Olympics . There are very less options to host Olympic .
If all the players are vacinated then their is no problem in hosting the Olympics . It could be hosted without audience .

日本是一个可以举办奥林匹克运动会的地方。奥林匹克运动会的举办场地的选择十分的少，如果所有参赛的以及各种各样的人员都注射了疫苗，那么对于举办运动会将没有任何问题，甚至于它可以没有观众的举办。

Vaccinations will propagate across Japan, and come July 23rd you will be glad the Olympics are being held in Japan.
The Olympic games will be a symbol of defeating the Pandemic for the world

预防新冠疫情的疫苗将会在日本大范围的传播，并且在七月二十三日将会很高兴的迎来奥林匹克运动会的举办，这个奥林匹克运动会将会是一种世界抵抗新冠疫情的象征

If Japan is still suffering from a peak in the Covid pandemic, it seem foolhardy to hold the Olympics in the midst of it. Typically, athletes do not often suffer death due to the disease, but it would be a shame if many did come down with it during the competition fortnight. They could bring it home to their families! No - I think the Olympics should be cancelled or delayed again unless Japan can show substantial improvement immediately before that decision must be made

如果日本正处于新冠疫情爆发的高峰时期，那么举办奥林匹克运动会将是有勇无谋的一种举动。一般来说，运动员感染新冠疫情并不会造成死亡，但是如果在这两周的比赛中大部分运动员得了新冠病毒，这将会是一件十分令人悲痛的事，因为他们将会把病毒带到他们自己的家庭中，所以我认为目前奥林匹克运动会还是要取消或者再次推迟除非日本可以在必须要做出决定前迅速的做出大量的改善。

I love Japan and was planning on going to the 2020 Olympics until they got postponed. Now I’m not going.

我非常的喜欢日本，并且计划去参加日本举办的2020年的奥林匹克运动会,。但是在我知道它被推迟后，现在我就没有去。

I thing it’s foolish for the Japanese to hold these Olympics, especlally since so many host Japanese cities are NOT hosting any Olympians athletes or visitors. What’s the secondary purpose of the Olympics if not to meet and greet the athletes, their families, and their supporters?

我认为对于现在的日本来说举办奥林匹克运动会是十分愚蠢的，尤其是因为如此多的日本城市并没有接待奥林匹克运动会的参赛人员以及游客。如果没有热情的见到并接待这些运动员，以及他们的家庭和支持者，那么他们的次要目的是什么呢？

I know Japan would lose a lot of money by cancelling the Olympics, but sometimes you just have to do the right thing, whether you make money or no.

我知道由于推迟奥林匹克运动会日本损失了一大笔的钱，但是有时我们不管挣钱与否，都要去做正确的事情。

I'm right in the middle…yes and no.

我处于中立状态

No because of Covid. The world is still recovering from the effects and many people still have not been vaccinated. Although most places have rules put in place to keep sick people out, but with the amount of tourists it will be impossible reinforce these rules.

不是由于新冠疫情，这个世界还没有从新冠疫情的各种影响中恢复过来并且有许多人依旧没有注射疫苗，虽然大有许多地方存在规则将感染了的人隔离起来，但是这众多游客的数量使得遵守这个原则成为不可能。

Also, I know most tourists are fine but there are the sext few who do not respect the host nations rules and culture. I don't know how many times I've seen foreigners break branches off Sakura trees….I know it's not right to judge all tourists for the wrong doings of the few, but…come on…respect, people….

同样的是，我知道大部分游客是健康的，但是依旧有极少部分的游客不遵守本地的规则和风俗，我不知道我有多少次的看过外国游客破坏樱花树的枝干...我知道不应该因为极少部分的游客而指责所有的游客，但是...突然产生...尊重那些恶人们...

And yes because of the economical boost many places will get. The amount of businesses that shut down because of the virus was bad, especially small hotels in the country side, tourist spots, and many sightseeing areas that were very dependant on people form the outside (in or out of Japan) to come and spend money.

并且不可否认的是由于这些游客的到来一些地方的经济会更加的繁荣，那些因为新冠疫情的爆发本应该关闭的企业，尤其是在国家边界小型的旅馆，各种各样的旅游景点和观光地区周围衍生的行业都十分的依赖外来的游客来，并且在这些地方消费

Also I heard they may loosen tattoo rules at onsen and pools. My wife is not Japanese and has tattoos…. it's been a nightmare trying to reserve and find decent ryokan with nice onsen that's OK with tattoos.

我也听说游泳池和温泉等地的禁止纹身的政策将会放宽，我的妻子不是日本人并且有纹身，如果尝试去寻找允许纹身的体面的温泉体验将会是个噩梦。

I have been against the Olympics from the beginning of the campaign to win them for Tokyo

从日本为东京争得奥林匹克运动会举办权开始，我就一直反对奥林匹克运动会的举办

My opinion, like that of other Japanese citizens, does not, however, count for much.

我的建议，对于其他日本公民来说这或许不意味着什么，但是，我认为意义重大。

The IOC has explicitly stated that public opinion will not determine if the Olympics is held or not.

国际奥林匹克委员会明确的指明公众的意见并不会决定奥林匹克运动会是否发生以及在哪里举办。

I’m somewhat conflicted.

我有一点儿矛盾

Let’s start with the simple position: If the Olympics don’t happen this year, they’re not on until 2024 in Paris - the summer ones, anyway. I’m somewhat aware that there have been polls suggesting that the population in Japan wouldn’t mind a further postponement, but that’s pie-in-the-sky thinking. Considering that Olympics as far afield as 2032 are pretty far advanced in terms of being awarded and so on, the question perhaps comes down to “Does Tokyo host in 2021, or does it try to bid for 2036?”

让我们开始于简单的处境：如果今年的奥林匹克运动会并没有发生，那么不论如何我们将会等到2024年在巴黎举行在夏日的奥林匹克运动会，我有点意识到了这里为什么有投票表明在日本的大部分人口并不介意运动会的再一次推迟，但是这却是十分渺茫的愿望，因为考虑到就颁奖的东西和其他许多事情而言，如果奥林匹克运动远至2032年举办，那么这些东西将会变得很先进，最终这个问题将会变成东京是否应该在2021年举办或者说应该直接推迟至2036年？

Obviously, there’s the issue of the pandemic. I don’t pretend to understand what the issue is with the Japanese vaccination rollout, but it looks to be similarly slow as has happened elsewhere in the developed world. I’d like to think that the government there might have taken the view that “You know, we’ve got a massive event coming up in 2021, so maybe we should get our act together”, but the reality is that that may not have been enough. Very few countries have shown the ability to get their act together right from the word go, and that’s without a burning platform like staging the Olympics.

显然的是，举办将还会面临新冠疫情传播的问题。我没有去假设，如果全部都接种了新冠疫苗，那么这个问题将会变得如何，因为这样看起来对于其他的发达国家进程还是如此相似的缓慢，我更加愿意去认为这些政府持有这样的观点“你知道的，将会有盛大的体育事件在2021年发生，所以也许我们可以团结一心。”但是现实却是这样依然不可行，在这个世界不断前进的同时非常少的国家展示出了团结一心的能力，并且这里并没有一个固定的平台举办奥林匹克运动会。

In saying that, other countries have demonstrated that it’s possible to hold large sporting events (yes, many times smaller than a full-bore Olympics, although the plan is for a much smaller one this year) without them turning into superspreader events. If you test everyone religiously and limit outside guests, it can be done. Considering that it’s a long time until the next Games, that may be a powerful thing.

然而，其他的国家已经证实这将会有可能去举办大型的体育赛事（是的，虽然计划的运动会已经小了一点，但还可以小更多）并且可以避免使这场赛事变成超级传播者，如果你真实可靠的测试每一个人，并且限制外来的游客，这将变得可以做到。考虑举办下一次奥林匹克运动会还有很长一段时间，那么这将会是一件十分有效并且值得去做的事情。

Honestly I think its madness with a global pandemic still in full swing. I appreciate that athletes have trained hard and waited maybe their whole lives for the chance to compete, so it must be so frustrating and disappointing, but now is not the time.

真诚的讲，在新冠疫情传播的范围如此大的情况下，我认为这是疯狂的事情。我欣赏那些已经不断努力训练了的的运动员，他们也许一生都在等待竞争的机会。如果这次比赛取消，这对他们来说将会是如此的令人失望和沮丧。但是，现在依旧不是举办的最好时机。

As far as I'm aware there will be little or no spectators so why not wait until 2022, or even just miss one Olympics and Tokyo hold it in 2024 with each host then have their games 4 years later than planned. Usually there is a mad scramble to get venues ready on time, this would give 4 extra years! Obviously I know nothing about sponsorship deals, costs etc so my idea might be too simplistic. But now is really not the right time.

依我来看，这次比赛将会有很少观众，甚至没有，所以为什么不等到2022年呢？或者说甚至于将这次在东京举办的奥林匹克运动会于2024年举办，比原定计划的推辞四年，通常来说，为了按时的举行，将会存在各种各样的疯狂的准备，但如果推辞的话将会有四年额外的时间来进行准备！明显的是，我对于赞助协议，费用的事情所知甚少，所以我的意见可能过分简单化。但是现在真的不是举办奥林匹克运动会的良好时机。
