1992年巴塞罗那奥运会上，奥克萨娜-许索维蒂纳获得她的第一块奥运体操奖牌和团体金牌时，大多数北京奥运会上的竞争者们还只是学走路的孩子。

When Oksana Chusovitina won her first Olympic gymnastics medal, a team gold at the 1992 Barcelona Games, most of the competitors in the Beijing Games were toddlers.

现年33岁的奥克萨娜-许索维蒂纳是唯一一名参加了5届奥运会的女运动员。

Oxana Chusovitina, 33, is the only woman gymnast to appear at five Olympics.

许索维蒂纳的竞争者们的平均年龄是19岁。

The average age of Chusovitina's competitors on vault was 19.

她曾经代表祖国乌兹别克比赛，但为了拯救儿子性命，她移居德国。2002年她3岁的儿子被诊断患有严重的淋巴性白血病。

She used to compete for her native Uzbekistan but moved to Germany to save the life of her son who was diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukaemia at the age of 3 in 2002.

如果不是为了儿子，她不会出现在这些奥运会上。

If it were not for him, she wouldn't have been at these Olympics in the first place.

她说，儿子的康复激励她备战此次奥运，但她从未想过能拿到一枚银牌。

Her son's recovery inspired her to train for this Olympics, she said, but she never thought a silver medal was possible.

“每个运动员或曾经当过运动员的人都会尊敬她，” 奥运金牌得主巴特-康纳尔说。

"Everyone who is a gymnast or who has been a gymnast is simply in awe of her," the Olympic gold medalist Bart Conner said.
