'AT' is used to show an exact point of time. 表示準確的時間
e.g. at one o'clock, at Christmas, at midnight

'IN' is used to show a certain period of time 表示某一段時間
e.g. in two months, in 1815, in the morning,

而2012 Olympic Games係準確指明係在2012年, 所以我覺得應該係用'at'
如果只係講the Olympic Game呢, 我便會用'in' 囉

Participate in (often follow by ‘in’) 意思係參與
e.g. Everyone can participate in this game. 每人都可以參加這遊戲.

Participate of 含有, 帶有
e.g. His poems participate of the nature of satire. 她的詩帶有諷刺性.

1. participate in 為慣用語,意為「參加」。
2. in 和 at 都可用於指時間,at用於指一個特定時間,例如at Xmas、at noon、at 4th of July等等。而 in則用於指涉一段時間中的某一刻(during a period of time),如 in July、in 2011、in the morning、in 21th century等等。由於奧運會乃於一段時間中舉行,而句子也並未指出五項賽的舉行日,故應使用in。

2012唔可以算為exact point of time,而係a certain period of time ,特別係奧運會賽事一般都有初賽、複賽、決賽,明顯係一個過程。如果你係想講Olympic Games 喺邊一年舉行,冇錯應該用at,因為對於四年一次嘅Olympic Games而言,一個年份已經足夠理解為an exact point of time;不過,對於一項在短時間內完成的比賽而言,歷時近一個月的Olympic Games就顯然係a certain period of time。

There will be 102 athletes in the 100m race.

2011-12-09 17:34:10 補充:
同樣道理,at 通常指向一個定點;如果想表達「當比賽時…」會用「during the race」或「when they race」。而若要表達「在某比賽中的情況」(如題),則是「in the race」。
