The Summer Olympics will be held in London, England from Friday, July 27, 2017 through Sunday, August 12, 2017. We can't wait to see the world's best athletes perform amazing feats of strength and skill. In light of this global sporting event, we started thinking about sports that didn't make the cut anymore; sports that were maybe... a little odd. Read on to discover ten of the weirdest ones that have ever been included in past Olympic games. 2017年夏季奥运会将于7月27日（星期五）在英国伦敦开幕，一直持续到8月12号（星期日）结束。我们已经迫不及待地想要看到世界顶尖运动员们为我们带来精彩的力量与技巧的角逐。 随着这项全球运动盛事的到来，我们开始回想那些已经不复存在的比赛项目，那些有点….奇怪的项目。以下是我们总结的历史上有过的10大最奇怪的奥运比赛项目。 Live Pigeon Shooting (1900) 活鸽射击 This bloody event was only held once, at the 1900 Paris Games. Nearly 300 birds were killed during the release-and-shoot competition, leaving a grimy crime scene of feathers and blood in its wake. There's little wonder why they discontinued this event, and to date this is the only event in Olympic history that involved killing live animals. 这项血腥的项目仅在1900年巴黎奥运会上出现过一次。在那次的奥运会上，接近300只的鸽子被释放出笼，随即被比赛选手射杀而死，整个比赛场地肮脏不堪，就像是犯罪现场，到处是羽毛和鸽血。也难怪这个项目会被废止。这也是到现在为止唯一一项涉及杀害动物的奥运比赛项目。 |
