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. 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.//
Ladies and Gentlemen, I believe that Beijing will prove to be a land of wonder to athletes, spectators and the worldwide television audience alike.
Thank you, Mr. President. Thank you all!//
700 年前,马可波罗曾经对一片遥远的美丽国度有过令人难以置信的描述。人们在惊奇之余问马可波罗,你有关中国的描述是真的吗?马可波罗回答:我向你们描述的还不到我所见到的一半。实际上,我们今天向大家展示的,也只不过是北京的一个部分而已。//
女士们,先生们,我相信北京和中国将向运动员、观众和全世界的电视观众证明,这是一块神奇的土地。
谢谢主席先生,谢谢大家!//
