9. One possible version
Good morning, everyone. Today, I’d like to share with you why Beijing is a truly special Olympic city.
First, let’s talk about the 2008 Summer Olympics. The opening ceremony was magnificent, showing Chinese culture to the whole
world. Its motto was “One World, One Dream”. I was deeply impressed by the amazing achievements of athletes like Usain Bolt,
who broke the world record in the 100 metres, and Du Li, who won a dramatic gold medal in shooting.
Then, fourteen years later, Beijing hosted the 2022 Winter Olympics. The motto was “Together for a Shared Future”. Nearly 2,900
athletes from all over the world came to compete in 109 events. The mascot, Bing Dwen Dwen, became a huge symbol of friendship
and joy.
These two Games have a lot in common. Both were not just sports events, but also platforms for building bridges between different
countries. They showed China’s development and its warm welcome to the world. The Olympic spirit of unity and peace touched
my heart deeply.
In conclusion, Beijing’s two Olympics taught us that sports have the power to bring people together. They are great memories for
China and for the world.
Thank you.
