U.S. President Joe Biden tripped on a sandbag and fell as he completed handing out diplomas at the US Air Force Academy commencement in Colorado on Thursday. 当地时间6月1日，美国总统拜登出席在科罗拉多州举行的美国空军学院毕业典礼期间，再次出现意外摔倒情况。

The White House said the president was fine after the fall.白宫方面迅速回应：人没事。

The stumble began as Biden was jogging away from center stage, where he earlier delivered a commencement address to the academy’s graduates. He spent more than 90 minutes handing out diplomas and congratulating hundreds of cadets. 据报道，拜登参加的毕业典礼时长大约90分钟，期间向数百人颁发证书并讲话。

As he was moving toward his seat, he tripped, falling to the ground. The president landed on his right hip before lifting himself up on his right hand. 事发时，拜登正离开舞台中心，想回到自己的座位上。但是他突然脚下一绊摔倒在地。拜登右侧臀部着地，随后试图用右手撑起身体。

A group of men, including an official with the Air Force Academy and two Secret Service agents, grasped onto Biden’s arms to help him back to his feet.拜登身边的军官和两名特勤人员赶紧将他扶起来。

As he got back up, Biden pointed back toward the ground where he tripped, indicating something had gotten in his path. 现场画面可以看到，拜登起身后还回头“指认现场”，指出是什么绊了他。

Video of the moment showed sandbags placed in front of the podium near where Biden had been standing. Earlier, the sandbags had been used to weigh down two teleprompters.当时的视频显示“罪魁祸首”是用来固定提词器的沙袋。

The president returned to his seat in the stands without assistance, and appeared in good spirits as the ceremony concluded.随后，拜登自行回到座位，在活动结束时他的精神状态还不错。

“I got sandbagged,” the president told reporters with a smile when he arrived back at the White House on Thursday evening before pretending to jog into the residence.当天晚些时候回到白宫后，拜登面对记者时笑着说“我被沙袋打了”，并做出了小跑的姿势以示无恙。

Biden is 80 years old, the nation’s oldest president, and is running for a second term. 现年80岁的拜登是美国最年长的总统，并且还在寻求开启第二任期。

He’s had previous stumbles in public, including falling to the ground during a bike ride last year in Delaware. He’s also been seen slipping on the stairs as he boarded Air Force One.之前，拜登也数次在公开场合摔倒过，比如在登上“空军一号”飞机舷梯以及骑自行车时。
