问题     Michael Phelps
    Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps admitted Sunday that he had engaged in " regrettable" behavior and "demonstrated bad judgment" after a photo was published that appeared to show him smoking cannabis.
    A British newspaper, the News of the World, published the photo allegedly showing the multiple Olympic gold medal-winner inhaling from a glass pipe which is generally used to smoke the drug.
    " I engaged in behavior which was regrettable and demonstrated bad judgment," Phelps said in a statement.
    " I am 23 years old, and despite the successes I have had in the pool, I acted in a youthful and inappropriate way, not in a manner that people have come to expect from me. "
    "For this, I am sorry. I promise my fans and the public — it will not happen again. "
    The newspaper said the picture was taken on November 6, almost three months after Phelps won a historic eight gold medals at the 29th Olympics, when he went to a party at the University of South Carolina.
    USA Swimming, the national governing body for the sport, said it was disappointed by Phelp’s admission.
    "We are certainly disappointed in Michael’s behavior. Our Olympic champions are role models who are looked up to by people of all ages, especially young athletes who have their own aspirations and dreams," USA Swimming said in a statement.
    "That said, we realized that none among us is perfect. We hope that Michael can learn from this incident and move forward in a positive way. "
    The US Olympic Committee also expressed disappointing in the swimmer, who on January 22 was named the USOC’s Sportsman of the Year for making Olympic history by collecting the most golds won by any athlete at a single Game, giving him a career total of 14 golds.
    "We are disappointed in the behavior recently exhibited by Michael Phelps.
    " Michael is a role model, and he is well aware of the responsibilities and accountability that come with setting a positive example for others, particularly young people. In this instance, regrettably, he failed to fulfill those responsibilities," the USOC said.
    The photograph shows Phelps, wearing a white-shirt and a baseball cap back to front, holding the pipe — known as a bong — to his lips and apparently inhaling.
    The tabloid quoted a party goer as saying: " You could tell Michael had smoked before. He grabbed the bong and a lighter and knew exactly what to do. "
选项
答案 迈克尔-菲尔普斯 奥运游泳冠军迈克尔-菲尔普斯疑似正在吸食大麻的照片曝光之后，他于周日承认自己做出了“令人遗憾”的举动，“表现了糟糕的判断力”。 英国《世界新闻报》刊登了这张照片，从中可看到这位多次摘得奥运会金牌的人物正在使用一个玻璃烟管吸烟，这种烟管通常用于吸食毒品。 菲尔普斯在一份声明中称：“我做出了令人遗憾的举动，表现出了糟糕的判断力。” “我今年已经23岁了，尽管我在游泳方面获得了成功，但我的举动却是幼稚和不恰当的，辜负了人们对我的期望。” “对此，我深感抱歉。我向所有我的支持者和公众保证，再也不会发生这样的事了。” 报纸称此照片摄于11月6日，当时的他正在南卡罗来纳大学参加一个派对。此前大约三个月，菲尔普斯在第29届奥运会上创造了连获八块金牌的奇迹。 负责管理全美游泳项目的美国游泳协会表示，对菲尔普斯的吸毒行为深感失望。 美国游泳协会在一份声明中称：“我们确实对菲尔普斯的行为深感失望。我们的奥运冠军理应是所有人崇拜的榜样，对那些有志向和梦想的年轻运动员来说更是如此。” “尽管如此，我们还是应该意识到人无完人。我们希望迈克尔能从这次事件中汲取教训，并积极地继续向前努力。” 美国奥委会也对这位游泳健将表示失望。此前，菲尔普斯由于创造了奥运会单届比赛夺金最多的纪录，且本人在职业生涯中已夺得14枚金牌，而于1月22日被提名为美国奥委会“年度最佳运动员”。 “我们对迈克尔-菲尔普斯最近的表现倍感失望。” 美国奥委会称：“迈克尔是一个楷模，他应该很清楚自己有责任和义务要为他人，特别是年轻人，树立一个积极的榜样。很遗憾的是，在这次事件中，他并没有很好地承担起这些责任。” 照片中的菲尔普斯穿着一件白色衬衫，反戴一顶棒球帽，将水烟筒拿到嘴边，明显是在吸着什么。 该报援引了一位社交聚会常客的话，他说：“看得出迈克尔以前也是吸过大麻的。他拿水烟筒和打火机的姿势很老到，明显知道自己该怎么干。”
