Bidding for and hosting the Olympics successfully is, perhaps, the ultimate glory for a city. However, before transforming the
dream into reality, the benefits and drawbacks of bidding for the Olympics should be weighed carefully.
Hosting the Olympics surely would bring about much gain to a city. Boom of the local economy, more jobs, and the
possibility of generating income all sound extremely attractive to the municipal government. At the same time, better
infrastructure, cleaner environment, enjoying the spectacular game with hundreds of sports elites and entertainment stars, and
the opportunity of contacting people from all over the world also seem exciting to the citizens. Besides, the bidding will
definitely promote the patriotic emotion and pride, as well as the moral behavior in local people. In most cases, bidding for
the Olympics is well supported by both the public and the central government.
Unfortunately, this is not the entire view of the pretty picture. If looking from another angle, the Olympic bid might
bring about some side-effects to a city. wow power leveling,
First of all, the environmental impacts, including the increasing exhaust fumes of cars, more pressure on water resources,
huge amount of wasted leaflets and other materials used for public activities, are most probably neglected. In order to broaden
the streets, some trees may have to be cut. Near the construction site, the tiny dust may linger in the air for a long time.
Reduction of farmland may be caused by the need of setting up new sports centre or accommodation facilities. These
environmental consequences can be especially serious in a resource-limited and densely-populated city in a third-world country.
Besides, if talking about the economic benefit, it should not be forgotten that a quick boosting may lead to bubble growth,
which may easily crash. If not well managed and organized, the big event may not be so profitable, and the new facilities may
be forever empty after the games. Yes, there have been cases that host cities ended up with enormous debts.
Finally, let’s think about the low-income groups in the city. What will they get from the Olympics bidding? More tax, more
fees, more expensive property prices, and higher cost of living. These definitely are not good news for them.
To bid or not to, this is a question. It is up to the choice of the municipal government, and the local public. After the
decision, what they can do is to make the most of the benefit, and reduce the drawbacks to the least.

The excitement of Sydney 2000 Olympic Games lasted for a long time. 28 gold medals won by Chinese athletes dwarf our Asian
nelghhors, heat quite a few hlg countries of sports, and surprise the two superpowers——the United States and the Russian
Federation. The great success clearly indicates that a new superpower of sports is in embryo.
Our success in the 27th Olympic Games is far beyond sports. First, the glory greatly enhances the international prestige of
China. Through TV, people all over the world know more about New China, especially the dramatic progress made in the past two
decades. Next, it greatly boosts the morale of our people. Billions of Chinese witnessed how the former ugly ducklings hecame
China with the force of an avalanche. The successful stories or the Olymplc Medalists fuel the ambition of millions of Chinese
youth. Finally, It heightens our selfconfidence and nationalism. China, a weak nation in sports in the past, has rapidly risen
up and become one of the sports giants. Why couldn't she be a modernized China soon? What is more,the success has laid a firm
foundation for Beijing to host the 2008 Olympic Games.

The 27th Olimpic Games was over, but the Olympic Spirit lives on. In the race for a better nation,there is no finish line.
If we keep on working hard, the day will certainly come when China will be a powerful country with international prestige.
