Pools Turn Green at Rio Olympics
里約水池變綠
The outdoor diving pool at the Rio Olympics turned green this week, leaving many wondering if the water was safe for athletes to swim in. Though the cause of the discolouration is currently unknown, officials say the water has been tested thoroughly and there is no risks to athletes. There are several theories about why the pool would turn green. Some pool experts believe it is a build up of algae while others say it’s due to a lack of chemicals. Shortly after organizers assured athletes that the diving well would be blue again soon, the adjacent water polo pool turned green as well.
本周，里約戶外跳水池突然變綠，運動員安全存疑。盡管變色原因還不得而知，但官方稱已對水池進行全面檢測，它對運動員不構成危害。關于水池變綠有多個版本。許多專家稱是水藻繁殖，還有人稱是是缺少某種化學物質。就在主辦方承諾回歸“本色”后不久，旁邊的水球池也被染成了一抹綠色。
