Tokyo attempted to put its scandal-hit preparations for the 2020 Olympics back on track yesterday when it finally settled on a Japanese design for the new national stadium.
东京昨日试图将其丑闻缠身的2020年奥运会筹备工作拉回正轨，它最终选定了一位日本建筑师的新国家体育馆设计方案。
But the choice of a multi-tiered, part-wooden stadium nicknamed “the hamburger” on social media could ignite further trouble after architects said it bore “remarkable similarities” to a blueprint abandoned in July.
但选择该方案可能引起更多的麻烦。新设计在社交媒体上被戏称为“汉堡包”，是一个多层、部分采用木质结构的体育馆。此前有建筑师表示，它与今年7月被放弃的方案存在“明显相似之处”。
The selection of the “trees and green” themed stadium designed by Japanese architect Kengo Kuma sought to end months of uncertainty. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe told a specially convened cabinet meeting that the chosen design was a “wonderful plan that meets criteria such as basic principles, construction period and cost”.
选择日本建筑师隈研吾(Kengo Kuma)以“木与绿”为主题的设计方案是希望结束数月以来的不确定状态。日本首相安倍晋三(Shinzo Abe)在一次内阁特别会议上表示，选定的设计是一个“很棒的计划，在基本原则、工期和成本等各方面都满足标准”。
