#背单词学英语# #每天打卡背单词# The origin of short track speed skating can be traced back to the Netherlands in the 17th century, where people would skate on ice for fun.
As time went on, the sport evolved into a formal competitive activity.
The short track events occur on a 111-meter oval track. The skaters race in a pack of 4-8 at a time, and the first person crossing the finish line is the winner.
短道速滑的赛道通常是111米的椭圆赛道。短道速滑比赛采用淘汰制，4-8名运动员在1条起跑线上同时起跑出发，以到达终点先后顺序论胜负。
Competitors in short track speed skating race against one another - not the clock. As a result, short track races are full of strategy, bravery, skill and high-intensity excitement.
与速度滑冰不同的是，短道速滑比赛是参赛者之间的直接较量，而不是与时间赛跑。因此，短道速滑比赛策略、胆识、技巧和刺激并存。
