Han Xiaopeng made history by becoming the first Chinese skier to win Olympic gold with his sensational victory in the men's freestyle aerials final on February 23, 2006. This is China's second gold at the ongoing event.
报道中的aerials在这里是体育术语"空中技巧",由形容词aerial衍生而来。Aerial原意是"of, in, or caused by the air"(在空中的;与空气有关的),举个例子:Petrels are the most aerial of birds(海燕是最善于翱翔的鸟)。由此,我们可得到一系列与"空中"有关的词组:如 "特技飞行",可以用aerial acrobatics来表达,acrobatics意为"杂技";军事上的"空战"可译为aerial combat.
另外,我们说的"天线"也可以用aerial来表示。
