mr. president, ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon!

before i introduce our cultural programs, i want to tell you one thing first about 2008. you're going to have a great time in beijing.

china has its own sport legends. back to song dynasty, about the 11th century, people started to play a game called cuju, which is regarded as the origin of ancient football. the game was very popular and women were also participating.

now, you will understand why our women football team is so good today.

there are a lot more wonderful and exciting things waiting for you in new beijing, a dynamic modern metropolis with 3,000 years of cultural treasures woven into the urban tapestry. along with the iconic imagery of the forbidden city, the temple of heaven and the great wall, the city offers an endless mixture of theatres, museums, discos, all kinds of restaurants and shopping malls that will amaze and delight you.

but beyond that, it is a place of millions of friendly people who love to meet people from around the world. people of beijing believe that the 2008 olympic games in beijing will help to enhance the harmony between our culture and the diverse cultures of the world. their gratitude will pour out in open expressions of affection for you and the great movement that you guide.

within our cultural programs, education and ***munication will receive the highest priority. we seek to create an intellectual and sporting legacy by broadening the understanding of the olympic ideals throughout the country.

cultural events will unfold each year, from 2005 to 2008. we will stage multi-disciplined cultural programs, such as concerts, exhibitions, art ***petitions and camps which will involve young people from around the world. during the olympics, they will be staged in the olympic village and the city for the benefit of the athletes.

our ceremonies will give china's greatest-and the world's greatest artists a stage for celebrating the ***mon aspirations of humanity and the unique heritage of our culture and the olympic movement.

with a concept inspired by the famed silk road, our torch relay will break new ground, traveling from olympia through some of the oldest civilizations known to man-greek, roman, egyptian, byzantine, mesopotamian, persian, arabian, indian and chinese. carrying the message "share the peace, share the olympics," the eternal flame will reach new heights as it crosses the himalayas over the world's highest summit - mount qomolangma, which is known to many of you as mt. everest.

in china, the flame will pass through tibet, cross the yangtze and yellow rivers, travel the great wall and visit hong kong, macau, taiwan and the 56 ethnic ***munities who make up our society. on its journey, the flame will be seen by and inspire more human beings than any previous relay.

i am afraid i can not present the whole picture of our cultural programs within such a short period of time. before i end, let me share with you one s

tory. seven hundred years ago, amazed by his incredible edtions of a far away land of great beauty, people asked marco polo whether his stories about china were true.he answered:

what i have told you was not even half of what i saw. actually, what we have shown you here today is only a fraction of beijing that awaits you.

mr. president, ladies and gentlemen,good afternoon!

**先生，各位来宾，下午好！

before i introduce our cultural programs, i want to tell you one thing first about 2008. you're going to have a great time in beijing.

在我介绍我们的文化项目之前，我想告诉你一些关于2008年的事情。你将在北京过得很愉快。

china has its own sport legends. back to song dynasty, about the 11th century, people started to play a game called cuju, which is regarded as the origin of ancient football. the game was very popular and women were also participating.

now, you will understand why our women football team is so good today.

中国有自己的体育传奇。早在宋朝，大约在11世纪，人们就开始玩一种叫蹴鞠的游戏，这被认为是足球的古老起源。这项运动很受欢迎，妇女也来参加。

现在，你会明白为什么我们的女足如此优秀。

there are a lot more wonderful and exciting things waiting for you in new beijing, a dynamic modern metropolis with 3,000 years of cultural treasures woven into the urban tapestry. along with the iconic imagery of the forbidden city, the temple of heaven and the great wall, the city offers an endless mixture of theatres, museums, discos, all kinds of restaurants and shopping malls that will amaze and delight you.

还有更多精彩的事物在等着你。在新北京，一个充满活力的现代化大都市，交织3000年的文化宝藏的城市面貌，伴随着象征意象的紫禁城、天坛、万里长城正在向您展开，这个城市有着多样的的影院、博物馆、舞厅、各种餐馆和购物中心，正在让您感到惊喜与兴奋。

but beyond that, it is a place of millions of friendly people who love to meet people from around the world. people of beijing believe that the 2008 olympic games in beijing will help to enhance the harmony between our culture and the diverse cultures of the world. their gratitude will pour out in open expressions of affection for you and the great movement that you guide.

但除此之外，这是一个深受数百万人喜爱的城市，可以满足世界各地的人们。北京人民相信，2008北京奥运会将有助于改善中国和香港的和谐。我们的文化意志

与世界多元文化相互交融。他们将公开表达对奥运会的期望。你可以见证你和伟大的体育运动之间的文化交流。

within our cultural programs, education and ***munication will receive the highest priority. we seek to create an intellectual and sporting legacy by broadening the understanding of the olympic ideals throughout the country.

在我们的文化发展中，教育和交流将得到优先发展，我们想要创造一个智力和体育记录，以扩大人们所了解的奥运梦想传播于全国各地。

our ceremonies will give china's greatest-and the world's greatest artists a stage for celebrating the ***mon aspirations of humanity and the unique heritage of our culture and the olympic movement.

开幕式我们将给予我国在世界最大的艺术舞台，欢庆共同愿望和人们独特的文化遗产——我们的文化和奥林匹克运动所带来的魅力。

with a concept inspired by the famed silk road, our torch relay will break new ground, traveling from olympia through some of the oldest civilizations known to man-greek, roman, egyptian, byzantine, mesopotamian, persian, arabian, indian and chinese. carrying the message "share the peace, share the olympics," the eternal flame will reach new heights as it crosses the himalayas over the world's highest summit - mount qomolangma, which is known to many of you as mt. everest.

in china, the flame will pass through tibet, cross the yangtze and

yellow rivers, travel the great wall and visit hong kong, macau, taiwan and the 56 ethnic ***munities who make up our society. on its journey, the flame will be seen by and inspire more human beings than any previous relay.

著名的丝绸之路的开创，我们的火炬接力将有新的突破，从奥林匹亚通过一些最古老的国家的文明——希腊、罗马、埃及、拜占庭、不达米亚、波斯、阿拉伯、印度和中国。携带的信息“分享和平，分享奥运”永恒的火焰将达到新的高峰，因为它将穿越喜马拉雅山在世界的最高峰——珠穆朗玛峰,这是已知的许多你安居乐业。在中国，圣火还将穿过**，穿越长江与黄河，游历长城，并参观香港，澳门，台湾和56个民族的朋友，圣火传递时，火焰将被激励更多的人参与

到奥林匹克的大家庭中。

i am afraid i can not present the whole picture of our cultural programs within such a short period of time. before i end, let me share with you one story. seven hundred years ago, amazed by his incredible descriptions of a far away land of great beauty, people asked marco polo whether his stories about china were true.

在这么短的时间里，我恐怕不能介绍现在的中华全貌与我们的文化，在我结束前，让我跟大家分享这样一个故事，七百年前，马可波罗来到中国，他惊讶的不得了，当他描述在一个遥远的国家非常美丽，人们问马可波罗他在中国的故事是不是真的，他回答道：我告诉你的连我看到的一半都没有达到。实际上，我们介绍的只是一小部分。北京在等你！
