CoolRunnings(1993)–IrwinBlitzer(JohnCandy)“就像他们说的，奥运会重在参与，而不在于输赢。”《侦察》（1972）——米洛•坦德尔（迈克尔•凯恩）“将比赛看完的力量来自哪里？来自内心。”《火的战车》（1981）——埃里克•里黛尔（伊恩•查尔森）“每个年代都会有这么一次，某位运动员如此奋力地与强敌竞争以至于连最疲惫的观众都在为他喝彩助威。”《决战冰河》(1994)——哈里•金斯利(凯文•斯派西)"Well,astheysayintheOlympics,it'snotthewinning,it'sthetakingpartthatcounts."Sleuth(1972)–MiloTindle(MichaelCaine)"Wheredoesthepowercomefromtoseetheracetoitsend?Fromwithin."ChariotsofFire(1981)–EricLiddell(IanCharleson)"Onceinagenerationanathletepitshimselfagainstsuchoverwhelmingoddsthateventhemostjadedspectatorfindshimselfcheeringbreathlessly."

exceed埃里克·尚托，一位身患绝症（incurabledisease）的美国游泳运动员，当医生建议他放弃（GIVEUP）奥运接受治疗时，他选择了来到北京。他说：“奥运会是我毕生(LIFELONG)的追求（PERSUE)，我无法错过。能来到水立方已实现了我的目标，并且创造了我的最好成绩，我做到了，这已经足够。”泳池中与死神（theKingofTerrors）擦肩而过、甚至正并肩而行（neckANDNECK)，我们崇拜（ADORE)英雄，更敬仰（REVERE)生命的强者心酸pathos

德国举重运动员马蒂亚斯•施泰纳在领奖台上亲吻亡妻苏姗娜的照片，含泪感叹他终于实现了对妻子的承诺：永不放弃奥运梦想。苏珊娜2007年遭遇车祸，在妻子弥留之际，守在病床边的施泰纳向她做出了上述承诺。

传奇legend

在男子4x100米自由泳接力赛中，迈克尔•菲尔普斯的队友贾森•莱扎克在最后一棒超过法国选手阿兰•贝尔纳，使菲尔普斯打破了马克•斯皮茨在1972年奥运会上一人夺七金的纪录。那一刻，菲尔普斯如释重负，纵情欢呼。这是他的圆梦时刻.MichaelPhelpsroarsintriumphandreliefafterAmericanteammateJasonLezakovertookFrance'sAlainBernardonthefinallegofthe4x100freestylerelaytokeepalivePhelps'sdreamofbeatingMarkSpitz'srecordfrom1972ofsevengoldsinaGames-adreamhewastorealize

坚强resolution她用一只手臂做到了常人用两只手都很难做到的事情。她的名字叫娜塔莉娅•帕蒂卡，一个天生右下臂残疾的坚强姑娘，一个被誉为为乒乓球而生的波兰“维纳斯”。13日是帕蒂卡在本届奥运会的首次高调“出镜”，她代表波兰队与中国香港队进行女团小组赛的第一轮比赛，虽然最终以微弱分差惜败。但比赛中，这位独臂女侠还是赢得了全场的尊敬和掌声。作为残疾运动员，帕蒂卡用别样的美丽诠释着体育运动的真谛，也感动着世人。深情affectionatenessAmericanMattEmmonsblowsa3.3-pointleadontheverylastshotofa120-shotcompetitiontothrowawaythegoldmedalinthe"marathon"eventofshooting.FouryearsagoinAthenshehadfiredatthewrongtargetandsquandereda3-pointlead.马修·埃蒙斯把头深埋在妻子怀里，没有人看到这一刻他是否落泪。从雅典到北京，这一枪原本能击碎四年的噩梦，这一枪原本能成就一对奥运金牌夫妻，这一枪原本能写下一个童话般的结局。但历史总有惊人的相似之处。和四年前一样，卡捷琳娜坐在看台上给捷克电视台当解说嘉宾；马特站在男子50米步枪三姿的决赛2号靶位上；4.4的数字出现在显示屏上，冰冻了卡捷琳娜的脸，她张着嘴巴，眼睛一眨不眨，愣了好几秒钟，然后冲下看台，把丈夫拥入怀里，在他耳边轻轻地说：“命中注定还不是时候。”震撼SHOCK8月20日，在刚刚结束的奥运会女子游泳10公里马拉松比赛中，来自南非的独腿女侠纳塔莉-杜托伊特没能获得奖牌，也没能跻身前十名，但是所有人都对她表示钦佩。更让大家惊奇的是，她在下水之前将假肢去掉，几乎用一条右腿游完10公里。

动容moving在北京奥运会体操女子个人全能决赛中，出现了一张并不年轻的面容，其眼神透出坚定与温柔。她就是已经33岁的德国老将丘索维金娜。为了给患白血病的儿子治病，一次次义无反顾地返回赛场，此次是她第5次参加奥运会比赛，并获得女子跳马银牌，我们永远记着这位伟大的母亲。

她是一位成功的运动员，她更是一位伟大的母亲。MotherMachreeThere'saspotinmyheartwhichnocolleenmayown;There'sadepthinmysoulneversoundedorknown;There'saplaceinmymemorymylifethatyoufill;Noothercantakeitnooneeverwill;Everysorroworcareinthedeardaysgoneby;Wasmadebrightbythelightofthesmileinyoureye;Likeacandlethat'ssetinawindowatnight;Yourfondlovehascheeredmeandguidedmeright;SureIlovethedearsilverthatshinesinyourhair;Andthebrowthat'sallfurrowedandwrinkledwithcare;Ikissthedearfingerssotoilwarmforme;Oh!Godblessyouandkeepyou,mothermachree!

在我的心灵之中有个地方，深不可测其境从未与闻哪个少女也难问津；在我的记忆之中我的生命充满你的身影谁也不能取代永远无人有此真情；珍贵时光悠悠逝去辛劳烦扰却永不消停你眼中的微笑，其光彩使烦劳转为光明；宛如点燃的烛光深夜透窗棂你深情的爱激励我引领我一直前进；是的，我爱你如银的发丝闪烁着深情的光芒我爱你额上道道皱纹岁月刻满沧桑我吻你勤劳的手指双手柔情温暖我心房；啊，慈母在我心苍天保佑，福寿永绵长！

8月8日晚上8点，世人瞩目、举国期盼的北京奥运会在国家体育场拉开帷幕。这是“一台气势恢弘的史诗般的杰作”，“具有很强的艺术震撼力和感染力”，高度浓缩地展现了中华民族的光荣与梦想，极大地激发了国人的民族自豪感。我喜欢的灯光，但8号今晚的灯光，神奇的变幻，让我惊呆了，首先展现时光的流逝，那么多人共同的表演，整齐的让人折服。。。我爱烟火，但开幕式的29个脚印的烟光让我迷离，无法让人相信，它们就那样快步自信的走向了北京，走近了我们……然而奥运会开幕式的大型文艺表演独具匠心，体现了中国风格、中国气派，宏大的场面之中，蕴含着史诗的韵味，是一场以文明魅力为内容的视觉盛宴，给人以强烈的震撼。从造纸术、活字印刷术、指南针和火公文有约药四大发明，到书法、昆曲、京剧、国画，从海上丝绸之路到现代“星空”，以史为经，以璀璨的文化遗产为纬，开幕式大型文艺表演向全世界展现了中华五千年光辉灿烂的文明，精华动人之处，几乎鲜有遗漏。焰火组成的巨型“足印”，沿着北京古老的中轴线从永定门、天安门到国家体育场，象征了古老中国到现代中国的历史足迹，寓意深长。最最让人振奋的还是圣火点燃的那一刻。体操王子李宁，在空中飞跑，点燃圣火。直到李宁点燃圣火那一刻，全场响起响彻夜空的“中国加油，奥运加油”，而那一刻我也真的为中国而骄傲，为祖国加油。。。开幕式大型文艺表演出色地表现了中国文化的精髓，将和为贵、刚柔相济、天人合一等理念展示得非常巧妙，含蓄地表达了和平发展、建设和谐世界的“中国之声”。开幕式大型文艺表演把中国文化的和谐内涵艺术地告诉世界，让世界更好地认识中国。当我看到北京上空绚烂的焰火，看到世界各地的运动员汇集到国家体育场，心中的自豪之情难以表达。
