为奥运加油
2008,是每个炎黄子孙都盼望着的一年。因为一届看似平凡而又隆重的奥运会!作为一名奥运的主人,我们都有义务,有责任为2008年8月8号北京奥运加油,贡献一份力。
做一件什么事呢?我苦思冥想着。想过宏伟壮大的事,想过惊天动地的事,想过一鸣惊人的事……但最终,我决定做一件小事。因为俗话说:千里之行,始于足下;不积步无以至千里,不积小流无以至江海。而且老师说过:只有踏踏实实地作好每一件小事,才有可能做成大事。正巧,我随手翻开了一本英语书,有了! 我就提高自己的英语水平吧!到2008年北京奥运时,一定会有许多外国友人来中国参观,如果语言不通,就无法与他们交流了吗!我要竭力提高自己的英语水平,到2008奥运会时,能用流畅的口语和外国友人交流,把中国的风采,中国的艺术介绍给这些来自远方的朋友。让他们对北京,对我们中华民族有一个深刻而正确的了解。
要提高英语,首先要有一个正确的方法,才能在这短短的几十天内达到效果。于是,我制定了适用于自己的计划:每天看一点英语原版书,背十到二十个新单词,写一篇英语作文;平时多听原版磁带,提高自己的口语。这不,前两天,我在书店发现了一套适合自己水平的原版图书,马上买回家了,如饥似渴地读着。
我心中盼望着,希望着:当2008北京奥运时,我骄傲地向他们介绍中国的名胜古迹。我像一只刚出生的小鸟,用那甜美的声音,动听的语句,向来自五湖四海的朋友介绍美丽祖国的悠久历史……
朋友们,让我们在奥运会来临之际,为奥运做件事,用自己的实际行动去书写我们共同的梦想——2008北京奥运会!

"The Games of the 29th Olympiad in 2008 are awarded to the city of Beijing."
The International Olympic Committee selected the Chinese capital as the 2008 host in Friday's vote during Juan Antonio Samaranch's last IOC session as president.The attraction of staging the Games in a country which has the world's largest population, as well as huge economic potential, won the IOC's heart.
Beijing defeated four other bidding cities, including Toronto and Paris, to secure the country's first-ever Olympics. Osaka was the first city to go out, and it only took one more round for Beijing to win the Olympic race.
The announcement, read out by the 81-year-old Samaranch, was answered with wild jubilation from the Chinese delegation in Moscow, and with fireworks in Beijing.IOC senior member Kim Un-Yong said after the voting that Beijing deserved the Olympic Games.
"Beijing is capable of staging a great Olympic Games," said the 71-year-old South Korean. "The result wasn't a surprise to me."
With the motto "New Beijing, Great Olympics", Beijing promises to host a "Green Olympics", a "Hi-tech Olympics" and the "People's Olympics".
The 3,000-year-old city is becoming a truly international city and showing a new, vigorous image through its ongoing economic reforms.
Beijing enjoys the widest popular support among the five bidding cities. A Gallup opinion poll commissioned by the government showed 94.9 percent of the public in favor of it. The IOC's own surveys found support even higher. The Chinese government has pledged to spend 20 billion U.S. dollars building sports complexes and refurbishing the Beijing infrastructure. There are plans for a new exhibition center with twin skyscrapers that could be taller than any in the world.
