英國76歲書店主人:我要訂做獎牌送給第四名得主大綱

A Derbyshire man who believes the Olympics should mark the efforts of those who come fourth in their event, has created a new medal.

一名德比郡的老先生爲肯定在奧運比賽中獲得第四名的運動員，創造了一種新的獎牌。

The award comes after bookshop owner David Mitchell, from Cromford, studied the history of the Olympics and concluded times have changed.

這名來自克羅姆福德的書店店主研究了奧運的歷史之後，表示現在的時代的確變了。

"There used to be 84 countries in the Olympic Games, now there are 204," said Mr Mitchell.

“以前奧運會只有84個國家參加，而現在增加到了204個，” Mitchell先生說道。

"There has been an increase in competitiveness and higher standards need to be taken into account."

“比賽的競爭性增強，需要考慮更高的賽制規格標準。”

Mr Mitchell has already created medals for British divers Tom Daley and Peter Waterfield, who came fourth in the men's synchronised 10m platform diving.

Mitchell先生已經爲英國跳水運動員Tom Daley和Peter Waterfield製作了獎牌。他們在本屆男子雙人10米跳臺的比賽中得到了第四名。
