没服兴奋剂也禁赛?罗切特这回有点冤。
Superstar U.S. swimmer Ryan Lochte is again in hot water.
美国游泳超级明星瑞恩.罗切特最近又卷入了舆论的热浪中。
Two months ago, he posted a photo on social media of himself receiving an intravenous infusion.
两个月前,他在社交媒体上发布了一张他自己接受静脉输液的照片。
That caught the attention of the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, which launched an investigation.
这引起了美国反兴奋剂机构的注意,并展开了调查。
Now, the six-time gold medalist has been suspended for 14 months.
如今,这位获得过六次金牌的选手被禁赛14个月。
That clock started on May 24, the day he took the IV.
时间从5月24日开始计算,也就是那一天他服用了IV。

"This is devastating for my family and me, and I was finally back in top shape," Lochte said at a news conference.
“这对我和家人来说都是非常大的打击,我好不容易才恢复赛季身材,”罗切特在一个新闻发布会上说。
This means he will miss the upcoming national championships starting on July 25, as well as major international swimming events.
这意味着他将无缘即将到来的,7月25日举行的国家锦标赛,其他的大型国际游泳赛事也只能遗憾错过。
It's worth noting that the USADA did not find that he was injecting himself with any banned substances – the problem was the amount of fluid that he received.
值得注意的是美国反兴奋剂机构并没有发现他注射任何违禁药品—问题在于他接受的输液的剂量。
The USADA does not allow athletes to receive intravenous infusions of more than 100 ml in a 12-hour period, unless they have a special exemption.
美国反兴奋剂组织不允许运动员在12小时之内接受超过100毫升的静脉输液,除非获得特别许可。

Lochte's infusion was larger than the allowed amount, the investigation found.
调查发现,罗切特输液超过了允许剂量。
He said that he was not aware of the rule.
他说他并不清楚有这条规定。
"If I did, I never would have done it, it's obvious that I would not have posted a picture."
“我要是知道了,我肯定不会这样做了,显然更不会发照片了。”
The swimmer told reporters that he sought the IV of vitamins because he wanted to avoid getting sick after family members were ill.
这名游泳选手告诉记者他之所以输入维他命IV,是因为他不想在家人生病后自己也得病。

USADA said in a statement that Lochte "fully cooperated" with the investigation.
美国反兴奋剂组织在一份声明中说罗切特“完全配合”这次调查。
"I know it sounds like a harsh penalty for something unintentional and where I didn't put anything prohibited in my body, but a rule's a rule and I accept that there was a technical violation and that I'll have to do this consequences," Lochte said.
“我知道这对于无意犯规来说处罚很重,而且我又没有摄入违禁药品,不过规定就是规定,我也承认确实有技术性违规,我愿意面对这样的后果,”罗切特说道。
He added that he hopes other athletes will learn from his mistake.
他补充道他希望别的运动员吸取他的教训。
Sanctions of this kind appear to be rare.
像这类的处罚还是很少见的。
According to The Associated Press, "the USADA database shows only two other athletes being sanctioned for using such a method."
据联合公报报道,“美国反兴奋剂组织的数据库表明,只有两名运动员因为这样的原因接受处罚。”

This isn't the first time Lochte has been suspended.
这已经不是罗切特第一次被禁赛了。
As Bill Chappell reported, he was previously suspended for 10 months due to his behavior in Rio during the 2016 Olympics.
记者比尔.查佩尔报道,因为之前在2016里约奥运会上的行为,他曾经被禁赛十个月。
That was centered around an odd and highly scrutinized incident at a gas station.
这是源于一次在加油站的奇怪而引人注意的事件。
Initially, as Bill reported, "Lochte spoke to the media about what he described as an armed robbery — but that version of events unraveled in the face of scrutiny, particularly after surveillance video contradicted Lochte."
最开始,据比尔报道,“罗切特对媒体说他看见了一次持枪抢劫—不过这个说法经审查后被拆穿了,尤其是监控录像否定了罗切特的说法。”
The Brazilian investigation into that incident is still active, the AP added: "A court there recently decided that he could still face prosecution for filing a false report."
巴西警方对这次事件的调查仍在进行中,联合通讯社补充道:“法庭最近宣判他因为报假警仍可能面临起诉。”
Lochte told reporters Monday that he is still aiming to compete at the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo.
罗切特周一告诉记者他仍然打算完成年的东京奥运会的比赛。
