Direct attack on the field

Liu Xiang, we will always support you

Everyone was shocked when the news came that Liu Xiang had withdrawn due to injury. All kinds of opinions and speculations are flying around. Immediately after withdrawing from the game, Feng Shuyong and Sun Haiping attended Liu Xiang's injury press conference, hoping to provide satisfactory answers to everyone's doubts.

“I won’t make this decision unless I have to, and I won’t quit. "Feng Shuyong told reporters that Liu Xiang said this. Yes, if he could, Liu Xiang would not quit! If he could, he would definitely want to use all the honors in exchange for the moment when he jumped to the top in the Bird's Nest! He knows that what he is carrying on his shoulders isAsians cannot compete with European and American players in straight events7649_765612seconds88The myth is13The dream of hundreds of millions of Chinese! 

The Olympic Games, which are held every four years, is a festival that every athlete looks forward to, not to mention the Beijing Olympics held at his doorstep. Liu Xiang cherishes this opportunity more than every spectator, butThe moment he rushed out of the track, Liu Xiang already knew clearly that willpower cannot solve the real injuries on his limbs... He wanted to persist, was willing to persist, and even persisted at all costs, but his body simply did not allow him to do so. Liu Xiang did not prepare for the second start. He stood up and limped back to the athletes' tunnel, leaving behindA heartbreaking back view……

When the microphone announced that Liu Xiang had withdrawn from the competition due to a leg injury, the melody of the Olympic theme song "You and Me" sounded at this moment, and the scene of Liu Xiang winning honors for the motherland was played back on the big screen. At that moment, like many other viewers, I could no longer control my emotions and my eyes were wet. Just as CCTV reporter Dong Rina, who has followed Liu Xiang for many years, said: Although the back view of Liu Xiang leaving the "Bird's Nest" and turning around is not as exciting as crossing the finish line with arms raised and cheering, the sadness is another interpretation of the Olympic spirit, because Liu Xiang's choice to withdraw from the competition requires greater courage. Indeed, Liu Xiang, who turned his back and firmly left the track, was still great, and his decision to retire was equally great. When "don't abandon, don't give up" has become the spirit of the times, his giving up after hard work is equally awe-inspiring!

12seconds80, this is the result of Liu Xiang's last test. If Liu Xiang can reach the finals, then the Beijing Olympics will belong to Liu Xiang... It is still the information desk in the lobby, but I can vaguely hear the reporters staying at the Shunyi Hotel talking about Liu Xiang. Liu Xiang is the Liu Xiang of China, and Liu Xiang is also the Liu Xiang of the world.

No matter how regretful or sad we are, Liu Xiang is not as sad as Liu Xiang. The expression on his face as he struggled to endure the severe pain, the perseverance in his eyes as he decided to give it a try, and the helpless look on his back when he decided to withdraw from the competition as a last resort, all of this was played over and over again on the big screen of the Bird's Nest, accompanied bybeyongThe vast sea and sky.

Coach Sun Haiping cried, and reporter Dongzina also cried. What about Liu Xiang?

Won since the Athens Olympics110meterIt has been four years since he won the hurdles championship. Under the guidance of coach Sun Haiping, Liu Xiang has been working hard and fighting. His goal is to surpass himself at the Beijing Olympics, achieve his own glory, and achieve the pride of the Chinese people! And now, when he has to make such a decision, he needs more courage than everyone else, and he needs to bear more pressure than everyone else!

Jesse Owens said: "In sports, people learn not just the game, but also respect for others, ethics of life, how to spend their lives and how to treat their own kind." This is true for athletes; it is also true for spectators. I believe that no one will blame Liu Xiang. We sincerely admire Liu Xiang's persistence, Liu Xiang's tears after quitting, and all the unimaginable pain Liu Xiang endured for his dream; similarly, Liu Xiang's withdrawal, Liu Xiang's abandonment of the irresistible reality, and Liu Xiang's responsible decision for his body and future make us even more in awe! We are still proud of him, he is a hero, a hero forever!

The sky above the Bird's Nest is still clear, let us shout loudly: Liu Xiang, we will always support you!

Star Team

Smile starting station

With08The Olympic flame was blazing above the Bird's Nest, and the Beijing Olympics started its journey from a gorgeous starting line. Under the aura of the Olympic Games, our eyes are not only focused on the dazzling sports stars, but also on the volunteers distributed in various competition venues. However, there is such a group of volunteers: they are far away from the competition venues and cannot face the audience; they have already started working early when the Olympics are more than a month away, and when the Olympics are over and everyone relaxes, their peak work will come again; they always stand behind the Olympic stage, but they work hard without any regrets. They are w88 casino49Volunteers working at Shijingshan Traffic Station.

Smile · delivered by me

Unlike many other game volunteers, since the main task of Shijingshan Transportation Station is to provide vehicles for sponsors and media and to do recycling work after the Olympics, the peak work period of the station is mainly concentrated on the eve of the Olympics and after the Olympics. Therefore, volunteers have already begun7month1They have officially taken up their posts and started their volunteer career. Since there were not yet a large number of volunteers on duty at that time, and the w88 casino had not sent out special buses to take volunteers to and from get off work, the volunteers at the transportation station gathered at the Ximen at 6 o'clock every morning and went to the subway station to take the subway to work, spending nearly an hour and a half on the road. Although sometimes when everyone arrives at the site, they are still thinking about the comfortable bed in the dormitory, and their sleepy eyes are even a little confused, but once the work starts, the volunteers will quickly adjust to the best state and enter their respective work roles: at the service desk, volunteers take the Pick up the microphone, listen carefully, record carefully, and convey smiles with your voice; at the consultation station, volunteers greet guests with smiles over and over again, asking questions and answering questions, no matter how small or small, interpreting smiles with sincerity; at the starting platform, volunteers welcome guests and pick up cars one after another, under the scorching sun above their heads, working hard and expressing smiles with actions.

Volunteer service is often not as easy as imagined. During the peak hours of picking up cars, the volunteers at the information desk did not even have time to drink water and eat. When they had some free time, the food was already cold, and they could only seize the time to eat the cooled food and turn around and return to the intense work. Since the hotline of the service desk must be open 24 hours a day, considering the safety of girls, the station arranged for boys to take turns to work the night shift from 6pm to 6am. Some students had to go to work the next morning, so they could only lie down on the table and take a nap to regain energy for the day's work. ; The scorching sun in July and August in Beijing scorches the ground like a fireball, and the interior of the car in the parking lot is covered like a sauna. The volunteers at the grid not only have to accompany sponsor representatives to inspect the vehicles under the scorching sun, but also enter the car to remove the protective film on the seat for customers. When I walked out of the cabin, I was soaked to the skin...but no one put away their smiles because of the hard work and exhaustion. Every member of the team turned smile and dedication into a habit, injecting the professionalism of volunteers into every day's work.

Volunteers from Shijingshan Traffic Station gathered together to welcome guests with smiles. When sponsors, media representatives and foreign envoys smile with satisfaction because of their excellent service, the smile is handed over and passed on at this moment. The volunteers have become the messengers of smiles, turning smiles into thoughtful gifts and setting off on every vehicle leaving the station, making the journey of smiles start from here.

Smile·Treasured by me

Due to the particularity of the work content at the traffic station, the volunteers' work is all related to vehicles. During the work process, volunteers spend most of their time providing language services, and it is common to encounter professional terms that they do not understand. Facing the passenger flow during peak periods, volunteers began to think of ways to "recharge" themselves quickly. Some students carefully studied the all-English professional pick-up list issued by the station and looked up new words one by one; some used small notebooks to write down new words that appeared in the process of communicating with foreigners in time, and took them out to read when they had free time. After working every day, everyone can learn a lot of new professional terms, and also get the opportunity to practice their spoken English in the process of serving foreigners. A girl majoring in German at the College of Foreign Languages ​​happily told her companions after communicating with German guests that although her German level was still very limited, she was very excited to be able to show off her skills at work and get the opportunity to communicate with Germans. At the same time, the friendliness and humor of foreign envoys and sponsors often make volunteers feel the joy of work. When they thank the volunteers in less than standard Chinese, when they take out their treasured giftspinWhen exchanging with volunteers, when they take photos with volunteers with smiles on their faces, the students will smile with joy, because this is the most sincere reward for their work.

In addition to having a good working atmosphere at the transportation station, volunteers can also feel the warmth brought by the team.

Since the volunteers at the transportation station are often unable to see the exciting competitions during the Olympics due to work, everyone sometimes feels a little regretful, but there is not much complaint. However, it didn’t take long for the teacher in charge of the team to bring in a color TV. Although the color TV is not big, the small color TV not only brought wonderful events to the venue, but also brought a touch of emotion. After work, volunteers will sit in front of the TV and watch the game attentively. Although some competition volunteers cannot enter the venue to watch the competition in person, everyone will cheer for the wonderful performance of the athletes and lament the unexpected mistakes of the players. The atmosphere of watching the competition in the venue is no less than that of a small venue. More importantly, not only can everyone relax in their free time and communicate better with each other, but they can also devote themselves to work with a fuller spirit. Everyone watched the game together, laughed together, and felt like a family. The warm atmosphere allowed the volunteers to enjoy the process of volunteer service more, make continuous progress, and gain continuously.

The volunteers at Shijingshan Traffic Station, while sending out smiles, will also treasure the smiles in their hearts forever. This is a smile of relief, a smile of dedication, but also a smile of gain, gain knowledge, gain confidence, gain friendship, and gain a rare experience in life.

A volunteer at the transportation station once said that whenever she passed by volunteers serving in competition venues or central areas, she would hear them talking excitedly about the athletes they saw that day, the sports fields they saw, and the volunteers at the transportation station would feel a little envious and even a little disappointed. However, as the days of working at the station increased day by day, she found that the work of the volunteers at the station was very valuable and meaningful. Indeed, as volunteers, they are just dancing on another stage, but their dance steps are equally gorgeous, equally beautiful, and equally stunning. With their sincere smiles, they turned the Shijingshan Transportation Station into a starting station for smiles, so that every envoy, sponsor and media who got on the station's vehicles could spread this smile along the way and start their journey with a smile.

United as One Cheerleader

“Friendship, smile at every guest; respect, salute every flag; enthusiasm, cheer for every struggle; elegance, appreciate every process; tolerance, accept every difference; civilization, take away every scrap of paper.” This is our initiative.

The Olympic Games are here, along the way, our foreign w88 and economic cooperation30The cheerleaders are constantly exploring what they should do. What is the meaning of cheerleading?

Looking back on this year, China has been in many disasters,2Monthly snowstorm,3The Tibetan Independence of the Moon,4Trouble in Yue’s torch relay comes one after another5.12It made the whole Chinese people’s hearts tremble. Everyone shouted the slogan of God bless China and unite as one. I still remember the situation when our brothers and sisters from Foreign Economic and w88 sang the national anthem and ran the national flag on the patio of Hongyuan. I was really touched at that time. Everyone loves our motherland so much and everyone is so motivated! As a business owner, I am very proud!

We all serve the Olympics with a fiery heart. We cannot go to Tibet, we cannot hold the hands of those who grab the torch, and we cannot go to Sichuan, but we also want to contribute to our dear motherland.

Many students ask us, what do you do as a cheerleader?

Cheerleaders mainly refer to those distributed in more than a dozen venues449volunteer cheerleaders, they will play the role of "creating atmosphere, displaying image, leading and guiding, and helping me win medals" among the audience at the stadium. Seize the opportunity of the Olympics, accumulate experience, and form a spectator culture with Chinese characteristics. On the big stage of the Beijing Olympics, the protagonists are not only the outstanding athletes, but the audience is also one of the protagonists. As spectators, on the one hand we can enjoy this Olympic feast, on the other hand we must also work hard to play our role as hosts. I hope that through the opportunity of the Beijing Olympics, people from all over the world can better understand and understand China today. We hope that in the Beijing Olympic Games, the athletes on the field can achieve great results, and the audience off the field can also display the quality and style of the Chinese people. It is this glorious responsibility that cheerleaders shoulder. At every great moment that showcases the beauty of human sports, loud shouts, enthusiastic applause, and hearty cheers will surely resound throughout the capital, the land of China, and shock every corner of the world.

The cheerleaders are very happy to be together during this time. Although they have not known each other for a short time, they feel very friendly. We are a big family.

I still remember our first training. We sang songs all afternoon, learned sign language, learned singing, learned various cheerleading moves, and made waves together. Although it was a bit silly, everyone enjoyed themselves.

I still remember that we all bask in the sun together, I warm myself up, I volunteer, I bask in the sun and I contribute.

I just want to say: Cheerleaders who are united as one, come on, we will always be together!

Let’s end with our cheerleading song:

LAI LAI LAI

Give me a carnival night, let me roar for you,

If you are that good man, then I will follow you.

Give me a carnival night, let me roar for you,

If you are that hero, then say somethingLETS GO

We are all united, we are all unitedGO GO GO

It’s decided that you don’t keep me waiting for too long. Rush over and the earth is beneath your feet.

China team, come on! Cheerleaders, come on! !

Never lonely here

They only have12As an individual, I set out every day facing the rising sun and return with the dusk. Hardly any breaks, but never complaints.

Their work is trivial and simple: ticket consultation, venue verification, and ticket sample inspection. But it changes from time to time because of human factors.

They are the ticketing consulting assistants of Shunyi Water Park, from the w88 casino and Beijing Modern Vocational and Technical College.

Every day12At 30:30, they were already standing in the security booth, the first to welcome the audience. Although only12Individuals, but their presence can be seen at Gate No. 1, Gate No. 2, and Gate No. 5. When the weather is hot, the security inspection greenhouse is sweltering; when wind and rain come, the temperature here drops suddenly and a cool breeze blows. But the only thing that remains unchanged is the smile on their faces, which is the best business card of Shunyi Water Park.

"Sorry, you are here108Stand, you should start from1Enter at door number. Please go out and turn left, probably200meterThat’s it. ”

"There is no problem with your ticket. Please feel free to enter and watch our game."

They did not return to the ticket booth until there were no more spectators. It was already four o'clock in the afternoon. Four hours of standing without shifts or breaks did not diminish their enthusiasm to cheer for the Olympics and add glory to China. A thank you from the audience is enough to relieve their physical and mental fatigue. Next, they need to deal with inquiries from other viewers.

“Are there any tickets left for sale? ”——“Sorry, our tickets were expired7month2532411_32431

“What should I do if my child cannot enter without a ticket? "——"We understand your situation very well. However, according to regulations, children over two years old need to have a ticket to enter. ”

“Can tickets be refunded?”——“Sorry, as long as the game is not canceled, according to regulations, refunds are not accepted.”

They start from the perspective of the audience and provide satisfactory services to every doubtful audience with enthusiastic answers and concise and clear language. Of course, there will also be confusion and misunderstanding from the audience.

8month14On the day of No. 33776_33799|, the gloomy weather accompanied by strong winds and heavy rain made the original plan2Point10The game had to be postponed. A large number of spectators left the venue, and other volunteers also left. Only they remained standing at the exit of the spectators, patiently explaining to the spectators the situation of the game and the reasons for the postponement. The wind carried the rain and beat them mercilessly. Their clothes were soaked, their pants were soaked through, and their shoes were completely soaked in water. They wiped the rain off their faces and continued to explain the reason to the audience in question. Due to the temporary decision, many spectators who had no time to watch the game the next day were confused. They stayed at the door of the ticket booth for a long time and asked for a refund in a slightly angry tone. However, according to the regulations of the Olympic Organizing Committee, there is no refund policy for postponed games. With understanding and apology, these volunteers explained the ticketing policy to the audience over and over again and asked for their understanding and support.

"We understand your situation very well, and we also hope that you can watch the competition here. However, this is the rule of the Olympic Organizing Committee. I am really sorry, but we cannot refund the ticket. If there is a notice of refund, we will notify you as soon as possible."

10Minutes have passed,20A few minutes passed...an hour passed, and the dissatisfied audience gradually dispersed. These volunteers breathed a long sigh of relief and had happy smiles on their faces. It was past six o'clock, and a large number of volunteers had already had dinner and were ready to leave. And then they returned to the ticket booth and walked to the canteen.

There is no flashlight here, it is a bit of silent hard work and persistence;

There is no shouting here, but patient explanations and explanations;

There is never any loneliness here, because they all have the heart to serve the Olympics and the motherland.

This is12A small, united and warm group of individuals. Cheer for them, cheer for the Olympics!

Volunteer Notes

Can you still face it with a smile during the long wait?

It has been nearly ten days since we officially worked in the Olympic Spectator Call Center, but most of us have not received an external call. Except for the internal test dialing in the first few days, we have almost no chance to speak while sitting in front of the computer. This work, which was originally expected to be stressful and tiring, after a few days of enthusiasm is exhausted, what we are left with is a long wait, waiting for the opportunity to smile.

Every time we go to work, we turn on the computer as usual, log in to the system, and start waiting. While waiting, time slowly crawls forward until we reach the end. Then we leave the job, get in the car, and go back to w88 casino. Day after day, two points and one line, mechanical movements, without any surprise, excitement or tension. We even began to look forward to the fear brought by external calls and the tricky questions we least expected to receive. However, nothing happened and we had no chance to answer even the most common inquiries. Our enthusiasm seems to have been gradually cooled down by the air-conditioning in the office. Even the increasingly intense atmosphere of the Beijing Olympics cannot make us excited.

I still remember the moment when we took our Olympic shuttle bus for the first time and drove on the Olympic dedicated lane of the Second Ring Road. Everyone screamed out with excitement. That indescribable sense of pride made our young blood boil. I still remember the moment when we put on the sky blue volunteer uniform and hung up the registration card for the first time. We were happy and proud. I still remember the proud expression; I still remember my heartbeat speeding up when I heard the voice coming from the headset for the first time, that feeling of expectation and slight fear, just like first love; I still remember so many things, but these only exist in our minds, and we have already started to reminisce before we leave. This feeling of sadness seems to make us become more and more dull.

However, we will not let our fighting spirit wear down because of such loneliness and waiting. We must keep asking ourselves, can you still face it with a smile? Every day, every moment, our nerves never relax at all, for that tiny probability, for that phone call that we may never receive. Because we know that for the viewers who call us, every response we give is their 100% impression of us, not just for me, but also for us12308The spectator call center is even more important for our Beijing Olympics. In the phone receivers of foreign audiences, each of our answers represents China.
As volunteers at the Olympic Spectator Call Center, we will not relax at all! During this long wait, we will definitely face it with a smile.

My relationship with Shunyi Water Park

I, an ordinary student who is about to enter my senior year, became a glorious Olympic volunteer in this hot summer and joined the ranks of serving the Centennial Olympic Games.

I entered this big family on the last bus of Olympic volunteer recruitment. Cheerleader, this term was a new title to me. When I first signed up, I didn’t have a clear idea of what this position would do or what it would be used for. I just wanted to seize the opportunity at the last moment to experience and feel the charm of the Olympics first-hand and contribute to China’s century-old Olympic dream.

However, I still have high expectations for the work that cheerleaders have to do. I once thought about whether we would lead professional cheerleaders from various countries to cheer for the players between games; whether we would lead so many spectators in the Bird's Nest to perform cheering movements such as the Mexican Wave; whether we would bring small speakers and inflatable sticks to cheer for the entire game. There have also been speculations and visions about the venues we will serve. Whether our work locations are indoors, such as basketball courts and swimming pools, or outdoor, such as baseball and softball fields. However, the forty of us were assigned to Shunyi Water Park, which was completely beyond my expectation. In the previous recruitment of volunteers for Shunyi Water Park, I did not sign up because Shunyi is far away, and in my impression, Shunyi Water Park is almost completely open-air, which means that the sun there is very scorching, so I chose to wait for other registration activities. However, this was fate. As a cheerleader, I was sent to Shunyi Olympic Water Park.

7month30, is my first time to step into Shunyi Water Park, the place where I will enjoy the Olympics. I really fell in love with this place the moment I entered the door. Beautiful fountains, lush green grass, trees shining green in the sun, artistic buildings, spacious and clean roads……The bridge full of Olympic atmosphere, the crystal clear lake, the very wide and wide water area - it looks like a layer of gold sprinkled under the sunlight, the fish swimming freely in the lake water, the beautiful embankment, the blue spectator stand - and the blue sky are almost integrated. Whether it is the still water area or the rapids area, there are many things that I admire greatly: the openness of the still water area, the excitement of the rapids area; the beauty of the still water area, and the power of the rapids area…… I am really beginning to feel grateful that I can spend my volunteer life in such a beautiful big park. Although the sun is as scorching as the legend says, it is surrounded by green grass and green water, so close to nature, with such a broad view. Isn’t it a blessing to appreciate the combination of power and beauty in this natural oxygen bar, and to cheer and serve it? I gave up my efforts to prevent tanning, and just wanted to devote myself to my volunteer work, enjoy the baptism of sunshine and water, enjoy the splendor and intensity of the Olympic events, cheer for the athletes, and do my best to contribute to our country.

I fell in love with Shunyi Water Park and everything here! Looking forward to every day I can spend here! I look forward to China continuing to gain glory and glory! Come on Olympics! Come on, China!
