It’s not a chocolate coin wrapped in gold foil, people. That’s actual metal that composes that Olympic medal, so why do athletes bite them?
大伙儿，这可不是包裹在金箔纸里的金币巧克力，奥运会金牌是货真价实的金属制品，那为什么运动员热衷于咬金牌?
There’s actually a few reasons, but the most obvious is that it’s a pose photographers really, really like to capture.
还真有几种解释，但最明显的一个原因是，这是一个摄影师非常喜欢捕捉的拍照造型。
“It’s become an obsession with the photographers,” David Wallechinsky, the president of the International Society of Olympic Historians and co-author of “The Complete Book of the Olympics” told CNN in 2012. “I think they look at it as an iconic shot, as something that you can probably sell. I don’t think it’s something the athletes would probably do on their own.”
