3. Activity process

The first program: the combined poem "The Olympic Games Come to China"

Host: We will never forget, July 2001 At 22:00 on March 13th, this is the birthday of all Beijingers, this is the birthday of all Chinese people, and this is the birthday of all Chinese people in the world. Because on this day, the Olympic Games came to China! Please listen to the combined poem "The Olympic Games Come to China"

Student A: When Chairman Samaranch slowly walked towards the rostrum with his steps that were no longer young, suddenly, the eyes of a billion people were focused in one direction , the hearts of one billion people were in their throats - "The host city in 2008 is Beijing." This is what the Chinese people are waiting for! Just like when I was looking forward to liberation.

Student B: People from high-rise buildings, courtyards, and alleys formed a torrent and poured into the square.

All the cars forgot to move forward and honked their horns together to thank the sky. All the mobile phones and pagers rang, and thousands of words turned into one sentence - "We won!" All the wine in the bar was spilled into the sky, and everyone didn't know whether it was tears or wine. Let it flow, let it flow to your heart's content, let eight years of resentment flow away...

Student C: The little owner of the flower shop sent flowers for free; someone in the cold drink shop shouted: "No money today!" "Countless small national flags were waving and dancing in people's hands, as well as the clothes taken off by the uncles.

Student D: A blind old man stood in front of the Monument to the People’s Heroes for a long time and refused to leave. He couldn't see, but he said: "My heart can hear!" A half-paralyzed woman insisted on pushing away her daughter's support and wanted to walk three steps alone; a veteran Red Army soldier came to Tiananmen Square: "This way I have only seen the scene three times. The first time was when the First and Second Red Front Army joined forces in northern Shaanxi, the second time was at the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China in 1949, and this is the third time..."

Student E: Chinese The love and hate that had been simmering for eight years burst out in an instant. Chinese people who are unwilling to be lonely are making bets with each other, but there is only one bet - Beijing. This is not the ingenuity of the Chinese people, it is the self-confidence of a nation! A photojournalist's eyes were blurry, but he still kept taking pictures, even though he knew in his heart that whatever he took would be happy smiling faces.

Student F: The memory of the Chinese people is not bad. The scene of the failure of the bid to host the host country a few years ago is still vivid in my mind and in my heart... The scars cannot be erased, but even if there is one After falling down a thousand times, the children of Yan and Huang will rise up a thousand and one times. Today, we finally turned yesterday's "old wounds" into deep blessings.

Student G: Today’s Chinese people are not yet wealthy, and there are still some uncles and aunts who are looking for jobs after being laid off; children in impoverished mountainous areas have not yet been able to enter school; military wives often still go to school on the night of the 15th Singing their own "Fifteenth Moon", but a common goal has gathered tremendous power, that is, wishing China to become prosperous and strong rapidly.

Student H: Hong Kong has come home, Macau has come home, and now, the century-old Olympic Games have also come to China. The land of 9.6 million square kilometers is the soil of the Olympic Games, and the Chinese, accounting for a quarter of the world's population, are the most loyal sons of the Olympic Games...

Student I: If there is a spirit in the sky, Chairman Mao will again Walking to the Tiananmen Gate Tower, he solemnly announced to his beloved people: The Chinese people have stood up for the second time! If God is willing, Grandpa Deng will once again visit the forefront of reform and opening up and use Sichuan accent to demonstrate the wisdom of what he proposed back then! General Secretary Jiang was also emotional. He only spoke three sentences, but he used the highest voice.

Host: The more hard-won something is, the more you will cherish it. The world gives China an opportunity, and China will give the world a surprise. When history rings the final bell of 2008, the Republic of China will be seven years older, and each of us will be seven years older. At that time, Beijing will be even more beautiful. At that time, China will stand even more proudly...

A: Let me ask you a question first. Who is the last president of the International Olympic Committee?

B: Oh, oh...yes...it's sprinkled with turkey.

A: What is sprinkled all over the turkey? And KFC! Tell you, it’s Samaranch!

B: Hehe, I can’t remember the foreign name anyway, and the syllables are almost the same! But - I also want to ask you, who is the chairman of the Chinese Olympic Committee?

A: Who is it?

B: Haha, let me stop asking you! Let me tell you, it’s called Shaman Champagne!

A: What? Sprinkle the champagne...I've never heard of this guy. He is a foreigner, this is impossible! Otherwise, it's an ethnic minority. I don't think I've ever heard of such a name!

B: Of course you haven’t heard of it! On July 13 this year, the Olympic Committee held a meeting in Moscow. Beijing successfully bid for the Olympics. People cheered and celebrated. Did you see that in the TV cameras, bottles of champagne were opened one after another, and they were poured out before they even had time to drink? Is this "sprinkling champagne" all over a person's body?

A: Hi - that’s what you mean! Yes, that night, Beijing, Shanghai...all parts of the country were excited and caroused all night long! I heard that on Chang'an Street in Beijing, cars were lined up in a long queue, honking their horns, and there were crowds of people on both sides of the street. Everyone greeted each other, and there were many young people riding bicycles and holding up the national flag, and everyone cheered them. Even the hawker selling wontons banged the pot with an iron spoon and shouted: "Hey - hey! To celebrate Beijing's successful bid for the Olympics, the wontons are free of charge! Everyone can eat whatever you want!"

B: Hey, If I had known earlier, I would have skipped dinner that night and went out to the street to eat free wontons.

A: (glaring at him) You are such a bad person! Just know that you can eat and drink for free! Now, let me ask you another question. In the 2000 Olympic Games, which three athletes won the first three gold medals won by the Chinese sports delegation?

B: (slaps his forehead with his hand) The first gold medal... is Tao stockings!

A: I’m talking about those ceramic stockings of yours! It might as well be stockings, tell you, it’s Tao Luna! Tell me who won the second gold medal?

B: This... I can’t remember clearly, it seems like I was lifting dumbbells!

A: What are you lifting dumbbells? The athlete who won the second gold medal is named Cai Yalin! So, what about the athlete who won a third gold medal?

B: I know this, it’s called Yang Jieke!

A: Wrong again! What a Yang jacket? It’s not as good as a leather jacket! Let me tell you, the athlete who won the third gold medal is Yang Xia! You are such an ignorant person!

B: Hey, don’t just talk about others, let me ask you a question: Where was the torch of the Sydney Olympics lit? Did you know?

A: (scratch his head) It seems...it seems like it was lit on a beacon tower in Beijing, China!

B: NO, NO! Wrong!

A: That, that was...it was lit in the Sydney crowd!

B: NO, NO! Wrong again! Think about it, it won’t burn people to death!

A: Otherwise...it might have been ignited in the vast Sahara Desert!

B: You are wrong again! In fact, you are an ignorant person! Now, let me tell you the correct answer, it was lit in the water!

A: How is this possible? Fire and water are incompatible!

B: This is called high technology, do you understand?

A: I know that in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, we will also engage in some high-tech projects!

B: Some people say that the successful bid for the Olympic Games means that the world has chosen China and China has chosen the world. Therefore, we must make the 2008 Beijing Olympics a success!

A: Yes, the first time China sent athletes to participate in the Olympic Games was in 1936. At that time, it was still called the World Games. At that time, China could only send one athlete to compete abroad, and the travel expenses back home were still funded by overseas Chinese. Of! Therefore, old China was called the "sick man of East Asia"! Now, in just a few decades, the powerful New China has stood among the nations of the world. How can we not proudly say that the Communist Party of China is great! New China is great!

B: Let’s compose a poem to celebrate the success of the Olympic bid together! You say something, I say something, please say the first sentence.

A: The Olympic spirit is so great,

B: The bid for the Olympics is about you, me and him.

A: People across the country celebrate together,

37. Where is the Olympic Stadium located?

The Olympic flame, which is held every four years, was finally lit on August 13, 2004, in Athens, the capital of Greece. At that moment, the whole world's eyes turned to this holy place where the Olympic movement and the Olympian spirit were born.

I am no exception. Although I am not very interested in sports, I will not miss this four-year sports event. Rather than saying that I like watching the game, I prefer the atmosphere where people across the country are united and share the same sorrow and joy.

The Olympic Games will open in the early morning of the 14th. I don’t want to miss the exciting program of the opening ceremony and the exciting moment of lighting the torch, so I went to bed early and prepared to get up in the middle of the night to watch. The mobile phone woke me up from my dream on time, but as soon as I turned over in a daze, I fell into a fugue in my dreamland again. I don’t know how long it took, but I suddenly woke up and remembered that I wanted to watch the Olympic Games opening ceremony. Turning on the TV, it happened to be the entrance ceremony of the Chinese team. Yao Ming held the five-star red flag and walked at the front of the team. Behind him is the Chinese Olympic team, with familiar faces smiling and waving to greet the audience, with courage and confidence written on their faces.

I don’t know when I fell asleep again. When I woke up, the sky in the east had turned pale, and the opening ceremony had long ended. Although I did not witness the lighting of the torch, I was satisfied to see the energetic entrance ceremony of the Chinese delegation. This night was not in vain.

In the early morning of the 15th, it was the finals of the women's synchronized three-meter springboard and the men's synchronized ten-meter platform. Since diving is a very artistic and ornamental sport, I like it very much. Guo Jingjing and Wu Minxia, ??Tian Liang and Yang Jinghui respectively represented the Chinese team. The two pairs of players are relatively consistent from height to appearance. Coupled with excellent mental quality, stable technical performance and perfect movements, the Chinese team's score always ranks first. At four o'clock in the morning, the competition ended. Following Du Li and Wang Yifu, the Chinese diving dream team contributed two more gold medals to our country.

After work on Monday, my colleague and friend Xiao Yang reported to us the latest Olympic situation as usual. He is a sports fan, reading sports newspapers and browsing sports websites. I heard that he often competes with his wife at home to watch games on the TV. It was during the Olympics, and he was really addicted to sports. He couldn't talk about the Olympics. Recently, I often hear him tell stories about watching games when he was a child. At that time, there were very few families in rural areas with TV sets, and most of them were fond of watching TV series. They couldn't even understand what the Olympics were, let alone watch the games. Therefore, in order to watch the game, Xiaoyang often changed places and searched for like-minded people throughout the village. Fortunately, there is a retired worker who is also a sports fan. Xiaoyang would go to his house every time to watch. The two of them would stare at the TV and yell and scream, completely forgetting themselves, causing the villagers to look at them as if they were seeing monsters.

I am not usually keen on sports, and I never watch the sports channels of Central Five. But after being in contact with Xiaoyang for a long time, I began to be interested in sports. Especially the Olympic Games, which are simply sacred in my mind. The gold medal in any international competition is far less important than the Olympic gold medal.

The real attention and love for the Olympics started from the last Sydney Olympics. On the first day of the competition, the Chinese team failed to gain anything, which cast a psychological shadow. However, starting from the second day, the Chinese team turned around. After Tao Luna made a surprise move and won the first gold medal, the Chinese athletes set off a wave of competition. There is a gold craze, and good news about various projects is spreading frequently, which keeps surprising people. Not only did we get the gold medals we deserved, but we also got many unexpected ones and won the crown.

Such as Cai Yalin's 10-meter air rifle, Tang Lin's judo, Zhang Jun/Gao Ling's badminton mixed doubles, Ji Xinpeng's badminton men's singles gold medal, etc. Watching the five-star red flag rising slowly in the Olympic venues again and again, and all the athletes, referees, staff and spectators paying attention to it during the national anthem, I feel extremely proud. Whenever I see an athlete standing on the podium and bursting into tears with excitement, I will also shed tears of emotion with them. I admire them from the bottom of my heart and thank them for allowing all Chinese people to win respect and honor in front of the world.

my country’s total number of gold medals in the Sydney Olympics was finally fixed at 28. It seems that there is God's will in the dark. At that time, Beijing was bidding to host the 2008 Olympic Games. I couldn't help but have a hunch that Beijing would definitely succeed in its bid this time.

On that night a year later, my family and I stayed by the TV early to watch the entire selection process. Mom and Dad also carefully analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of several cities that were bidding to host the event at the same time. Although I was full of confidence at that time, I still hoped that the selection would end soon so that my heart could return to my stomach as soon as possible. When Samaranch uttered the word "Beijing", I jumped with joy, and the land of China was boiling...

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the schedule of the Athens Olympics is already halfway through. When I witness our Olympic athletes fighting hard on the field for glory and dreams, and constantly losing and writing miracles, my heart is trembling. Regardless of success or failure, you are all heroes in the hearts of the Chinese people!

I believe that every Chinese who loves the Olympics will be like me. Although they have different experiences of following the Olympics, they have the same feelings about the Olympics. Thanks to the Olympic athletes, their perseverance has given me the courage to face all kinds of difficulties in life. Thanks to the Olympic Games, it has added endless joy and aftertaste to my ordinary life, allowing me to maintain a long-lasting good memory and expectation.
