Kuala Lumpur， Aug. 1 （Xinhua）—Golden is the word for the second handshake between the Olympic Movement and China， the world’s most populous and fast-developing country.

[2] When the International Olympic Committee trusted Chinese capital Beijing and co-host Zhangjiakou with the 2022 Winter Olympic Games on Friday in Kuala Lumpur， it grasped a golden opportunity to promote winter sports and the Olympic Movement further more in the country of 1.3 billion people after the 2008 Summer Games.

[3] The ambitious 2022 host has planned to push winter sports among 300 million people， which means almost the whole population of the United States will either get in touch with， become interested in， regularly practice or even excel at the sports in the next seven years.

[4] As Beijing boy Song Andong just became the first Chinese to be drafted in the National Hockey League in the US， more kids could be expected to follow his steps. Ice hockey， among many other winter sports， has gained growing popularity and the Winter Olympics is sure a huge boost for it.

[5] It will also be another opportunity for the IOC to put its Olympic Agenda 2020 to test as the profound reform put forth by IOC president Thomas Bach last year aims at keeping the ancient Olympic Movement vigorous and attractive.

[6] Beijing 2022 host has unfolded a Games plan that underlined the full alignment with the principles of the Olympic Agenda 2020 and stressed sustainability as one of the key pillars.

[7] Since the very inception of the bid， Beijing 2022 made its priority to design a Games that would be athlete-centered， sustainable and economical.

[8] Beijing 2022 will take full advantage of both the tremendous Beijing 2008 Olympic and Paralympic Games legacy—including existing competition venues， infrastructure and people with deep operational experience—and having a clear vision of how the 2022 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games is integrated in China’s existing regional economic development plans.

[9] Thus， Beijing 2022 could be a good demonstration on how the Olympics stops being a white-elephant producer and benefits the people who embrace it.

[10] Golden era is also for the Chinese as well.

[11] In many ways， the Winter Olympics Games has already started to change people’s life for the better when Beijing announced its bid in 2013 with Zhangjiakou， a city from neighboring Hebei Province.

[12] Chongli County of Zhangjiakou， where about 50 gold medals will be on offer from snow events in 2022， turned from an unknown small place whose residents struggled at poverty line into a hot tourist destination in just one year.

[13] Most Chongli residents， who never had the chance to see Beijing， some 200 kilometers south of their home， will find it an easy journey—around 50 minutes of ride—to the heart of the country once an inter-city high speed railway completes in 2019.

[14] Back in Beijing， the host city geared up to clean its air， implementing a five-year plan starting from 2013 that cost 130 billion US dollars to upgrade heating system， cut car waste emission and close down heavy-polluted plants. Neighboring metropolitan Tianjin and provinces including Hebei adopted similar measures.

[15] A second five-year plan to further improve air quality is under study， according to Beijing mayor Wang Anshun.

[16] When the IOC handed the 2022 hosting right to Beijing， making it one and only city to stage both summer and winter Olympics， it made a safe and reliable choice， knowing the Chinese will live up to their commitments from top to bottom.

[17] Chinese President Xi Jinping has thrown his weight behind host Beijing， reiterating the nation’s passion for the Games in a video speech played during the final presentation to the IOC members on Friday.

He promised the Chinese people “will present to the world a fantastic， extraordinary and excellent Winter Olympics”.

[18] See you in Beijing in 2022.

2015年8月1日（新華社）吉隆坡——奧林匹克運(yùn)動與世界人口最多、發(fā)展最快的國家中國再次結(jié)緣，這一次堪稱金色握手。

[2] 2015年7月31日，國際奧委會在馬來西亞吉隆坡授予中國首都北京和張家口2022年冬季奧運(yùn)會聯(lián)合舉辦權(quán)。繼2008年夏季奧運(yùn)會后，國際奧委會抓住了這一黃金機(jī)遇，在擁有13億人口的中國進(jìn)一步推進(jìn)冬季體育運(yùn)動和奧林匹克運(yùn)動的發(fā)展。

[3] 2022的東道主雄心勃勃，已計(jì)劃在3億人口中推廣冬季體育運(yùn)動。這意味著，未來7年，將有幾近美國全部人口那么多的中國人接觸到冬季運(yùn)動、對此產(chǎn)生興趣、進(jìn)行日常鍛煉，甚或出類拔萃。

[4]繼北京男孩宋安東成為第一個被美國冰球聯(lián)盟選中的中國人后，會有更多的孩子追隨他的腳步。在眾多冬季運(yùn)動中，冰球越來越受歡迎，而冬季奧運(yùn)會必將極大促進(jìn)此項(xiàng)運(yùn)動的發(fā)展。

[5]對于國際奧委會而言，這也是檢驗(yàn)其《奧林匹克2020議程》的一次機(jī)會。該議程由奧委會主席托馬斯·巴赫在2014年提出，是一次具有深遠(yuǎn)意義的改革，旨在讓古老的奧林匹克運(yùn)動保持活力與吸引力。

[6] 2022東道主北京已展示了一份奧運(yùn)計(jì)劃，該計(jì)劃充分詮釋了《奧林匹克2020年議程》的原則，并將可持續(xù)性作為關(guān)鍵要素加以強(qiáng)調(diào)。

[7]競選伊始，北京2022奧申委就著重設(shè)計(jì)舉辦一屆以運(yùn)動員為中心、可持續(xù)且節(jié)儉的奧運(yùn)會。

[8]北京2022將充分利用北京2008奧運(yùn)會和殘奧會留下的巨大財(cái)富（包括現(xiàn)有的比賽場館、基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施和運(yùn)營經(jīng)驗(yàn)豐富的人員），并設(shè)立明確的目標(biāo)，將2022年冬奧會及冬殘奧會融入中國當(dāng)前的區(qū)域經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展計(jì)劃。

[9]這樣，北京2022將會成功證明，奧林匹克運(yùn)動會不再是華而不實(shí)之物，而是能造福參與者。

[10]這也是中國人的黃金時代。

[11] 2013年，北京宣布和鄰省河北的張家口市共同申辦冬奧會后，人們的生活已在很多方面得到改善。

[12]在2022年冬奧會上，張家口崇禮縣將產(chǎn)生雪上項(xiàng)目的約50塊金牌。崇禮曾是一個不知名的小地方，當(dāng)?shù)鼐用駫暝谪毨Ь€上;僅僅一年時間，那里就變成了熱門旅游目的地。

[13]大多數(shù)崇禮居民以前從沒機(jī)會到距離家鄉(xiāng)以南約200公里的北京看看，等2019年城際高速列車通車后，他們只需大約50分鐘車程就可到達(dá)祖國的心臟了。

[14]再看看北京，這座主辦城市已經(jīng)準(zhǔn)備好凈化空氣，2013年開始實(shí)施五年計(jì)劃，耗資1300億美元升級供暖系統(tǒng)、減少汽車尾氣排放及關(guān)閉污染嚴(yán)重的工廠。毗鄰的大城市天津和包括河北在內(nèi)的臨近省份也采取了類似措施。

[15]北京申辦冬奧階段時任市長王安順稱，正在研究第二個五年計(jì)劃，旨在進(jìn)一步改善空氣質(zhì)量。

[16]國際奧委會將2022年冬奧會舉辦權(quán)授予北京，使其成為唯一一座既舉辦夏奧會也舉辦冬奧會的城市。奧委會的選擇是安全可靠的，因?yàn)樗麄冎乐袊藢⑼耆男谐兄Z。

[17]中國國家主席習(xí)近平全力支持北京申辦冬奧。2015年7月31日最后一場面向國際奧委會委員的申辦冬奧陳述中，播放了習(xí)主席的視頻講話，他在講話中重申了中國對奧林匹克運(yùn)動的熱情。

他承諾，中國人民“一定能在北京為世界奉獻(xiàn)一屆精彩、非凡、卓越的冬奧會”。

[18] 2022年北京見！
