7.4 罗格在雅典奥运会上的致辞 希腊共和国总统先生， 亲爱的希腊朋友，
今晚，全世界向希腊致意三重敬意。
人类感谢你，因为你于2，800年前，在奥林匹亚创立了奥林匹克运动会。
世界崇敬你，因你在现代奥林匹克运动的奠基人皮埃尔.德.顾拜的号召下，于1896年就在雅典重新恢复了这项盛事。
最重要的是，今晚全世界为你欢呼致意，感谢你举办这一届奥运会，让奥林匹克运动会回到了它的诞生之地。
感谢所有支持奥林匹克运动会的人，特别要感谢伟大的自愿者们，没有他们的付出，就没有今天的盛会。
所有参赛的运动员，我想对你们说的是，这是你们理应享受的一刻，是你们的所有辛劳和奉献的巅峰时刻。请通过你们的行为——拒绝兴奋剂和奉守公平竞技的原则，让我们相信体育运动正日益变得可信和纯洁。
我们的世界需要和平、宽容和友爱。
来自世界上202个国家的运动员，请向我们展示：体育运动能克服民族、政治、宗教和语言的障碍将人类联合在一起。
愿本届奥运会能真正体现在此制定的奥林匹克休战书的精神，在和平中举行。
感谢雅典！感谢希腊！
现在，我荣幸地邀请希腊共和国总统宣布第28届现代奥林匹克运动会开幕。
7.5 The Olympic flame illuminates Beijing
June 8-9, 2004: history shall forever remember the date. The Olympic Flame came down to China’s Divine Land with mankind’s yearning for peace, friendship, civilization and progress and with the Greek people’s friendship for the Chinese people. rom Travling from Olympia to the Great Wall, the blazing Olympic torch has brought the Olympic spirit to Beijing, and, after illuminating Chinese people’s desire for peace, their wish for participation and their appreciation of the Olympic spirit, the torch has traveled across the five continents to every corner of the earth with the Chinese people’s hearty blessing.
With the centennial impressiveness of the Olympics and the millennial civilization of Chinese history, the Olympic Flame has tied closely
together Beijing and Athens, the Chinese people and the people of other countries.
Wherever the torch went, the TV cameras focused on were like unfolding one by one our beautiful picture rolls of unique traditional eastern culture. Beijing, built more than 3,000 years ago and regarded as the ancient oriental capital for over 850 years, continually radiates its charm, to be found along the wide streets and narrow lanes, between the high buildings and large mansions. Its primitive simplicity and latest modernity, its dignity and vigor reflect Beijing’s greater openness, display the Chinese nation’s progress and civilization, how the people live actively and optimistically, enjoy their lifestyles and yearn for the Olympics, and present the Chinese people’s passionate longing and preparing for the 2008 Beijing Olympic games. Not only in Beijing, but also in Qingdao, the co-host city and sub-site for competition for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, the people, in their own way, express their warm welcome to the Flame, with countless sails plowing through the blue sea and numerous drums sounding loudly together on the sandy beaches.
On August 29th, Beijing will take over the Olympic flag from Athens. From that moment onward, the attention of the whole world will be
focused on Beijing and its preparatory work will be arranged according to a new schedule. We will carry out all the preparations to the highest standard, with the highest quality and at the highest level. We will realize far more widely and deeply the ideals of a “Green, Hi-tech, People’s Olympics”.
We believe that, with the supports of the IOC, of friends in their countries, of overseas Chinese, of our Party Central Committee and State Council and of the whole Chinese people, we are sure to bring into effect the strategic blueprint of “New Beijing, Great Olympics”, and we are sure to dedicate to the world these Olympic Games which will perfectly embody the Olympic ideal and spirit. May the Olympic Flame blaze forever. We hope to meet in 2008 in Beijing.
May the Olympic torch be handed down from generation to generation. May the Olympic spirit be promoted around the world.
