　　雅典奥运会终于在全世界人民的瞩目下掀开了帷幕，这使主办这次奥运会的希腊人民骄傲不已。但两名非常著名的希腊运动员却因未通过兴奋剂测试而被取消了参赛资格，造成了一定的尴尬局面。对此外电中有这样的报道：The curtain rises on the Athens Olympics on Friday but Greek pride was overwhelmed with embarrassment after their two most famous athletes faced expulsion from the Games over drugs. Expulsion 在上文中的意思是“逐出、开除”。它的动词形式是expel，经常和from连用。例如：After the outbreak of fighting, all foreign journalists were expelled. (在战争开始后，所有的外国记者都被驱逐出境)。Expel还有“把某人开除”的意思。例如：The boy was expelled from school. (这男孩被学校开除了)。
