  Beijing Olympics: London 2012 handover blow to British pride
  
  For the past couple of weeks it has been possible to feel an unaccustomed glow of pride at the achievements of our athletes at the Beijing Olympics. All those gold medals, fourth place in the league table – who would have dreamt it?
  
  Then came yesterday's closing ceremony, and Britain's eight-minute window of opportunity to invite the world to London 2012 as the breathless BBC commentators put it. And guess what? We blew it spectacularly.
  
  Amid the cast of thousands of thrillingly well-drilled Chinese dancers, acrobats, singers and fireworks technicians, a red, double-decker London bus chugged ominously into the bird's nest stadium.
  
  There was some naff modern dance from British youngsters pretending to be standing at a bus stop, and a cute 10-year-old girl chosen by the viewers of Blue Peter appeared at the bus door to receive a football to deliver to David Beckham, who later kicked it into the crowd of massed athletes.
  
  How did he feel about this hardly challenging task, he was asked earlier.
  
  "It's very proud for London, very proud for myself," he replied inanely. What an archetypal British hero he is.
  
  The roof of the bus eventually folded open to reveal green topiary depicting unrecognisable London landmarks and the X-Factor winner Leona Lewis rising up and up on a hydraulic lift and looking understandably uncomfortable in a dress that seemed to be made out of a couple of hundred yards of crumpled Bacofoil.
  
  This was as nothing however to the horror of the raddled, sweat-drenched face of Led Zeppelin lead guitarist Jimmy Page, his snow-white hair unwisely tied back in a horrid little pigtail as he thrashed out the celebrated riff of Whole Lotta Love.
  
  Unfortunately both he and Leona were virtually inaudible and all the palaver about toning down the song's famously filthy lyrics was unnecessary because you couldn't hear them anyway. The sound resembled a badly tuned transistor radio in a tin bucket, though elsewhere in the ceremony, and particularly when Placido Domingo sang, beautifully, it was perfectly acceptable.
  
  In my time I've witnessed countless Royal Variety Performances and the opening ceremony of the Dome. This British fiasco was worse than any of them, and even at only eight minutes seemed interminable. No wonder London mayor Boris Johnson looked so uncomfortable beforehand. He must have known what was coming.

  
  I have two tips for you, Boris. Keep your hands out of your pockets when attending high-profile events like this, and secondly fire whoever responsible for this fiasco and hire proper showbiz professionals – from Las Vegas if necessary – to handle the opening and closing ceremonies in 2012. Another toe-curling embarrassment like this would be unendurable.



    
  在过去的几周内可以感受到我们的运动员在北京奥运会上迸发的不寻常的热情。所有的金牌得主,奖牌榜第四名的位置——谁曾想到过呢?
  
  
  随即在昨天的闭幕式上,英国的8分钟窗口时间——邀请全世界前往伦敦2012年奥运会  ——正如BBC台窒息的解说所描述的那样。你猜咋了?牛皮吹爆了
  
  在成百上千的令人战栗的牛逼的中国舞者,杂技演员,歌手和焰火技师之中,一辆红色的,双层伦敦巴士突兀凶恶的开进鸟巢体育馆
  
  -一些英国的蹩脚的现代舞年轻人装作在巴士站等候,一个聪聪的10岁小姑娘被the viewers of 开船旗选中,出现在巴士门口,收到一个足球并转交给小贝,后者晚些时候将它踢向疯狂的运动员人群。
  
  他对这一艰巨的任务有何感想呢?这是伦敦的骄傲,也是我的骄傲。他无比愚蠢地回答。多么典型的英国足球明星啊。  
  
  巴士的顶层最后展开,露出绿色的灌木装饰的不可辨认的伦敦地标和选秀节目的冠军-Leona Lewis——在液压电梯上缓缓升起,在一件似乎由200码皱褶的bacofoil做成的裙子里显得相当不安
  
  更恐怖的是老糊涂的,汗哒哒的齐柏林飞艇的主因吉他手吉米佩吉,当他努力弹奏著名的whole lotta love 中的即兴段落时,他的雪白的头发不明智的向后梳成一个傻逼的小猪尾巴
  
  
  不幸的是他俩事实上都难以被听见,并且所有关于这首歌著名的脏段子的八卦最终都变得无聊因为你几乎听不到他们。歌声如同一部放在铁桶里的糟糕的晶体收音机,尽管在意识的其他部分,尤其是多明戈延长的适合,声音优美并且易于接受。

俺目睹过无数的盛大演出也看了DOME(这个不大明白)的开幕式,这回英国的演出可真是一场彻头彻尾的失败,比我看过的那些演出中的任何一次都更糟糕,以至于演出虽然只有8分钟,都让人觉得冗长的无法忍受。怪不得伦敦市长包里斯囧孙在那之前看起来相当不爽-- 他一准是早就知道了接下来就要丢脸了。

波利斯(伦敦市长),俺有两个锦囊妙计贡献给你:一,在如此盛大高端的场合下,丫儿地把手从你那兜兜里掏出来;二,赶紧炒了那个端出英国8分钟这么一锅垃圾的责任人,2012年英国办开幕式闭幕式的时候一定要雇些演艺圈里的专业人员--万不得已的时候从赌城拉斯维加斯找也成哪。咱谁也受不了到时候再来那么一出让人囧的脚趾头都抽抽的尴尬演出!!

我倒蛮喜欢伦敦市长幽默轻松的态度。

伦敦八分钟,大巴,雨伞,朋克,男女老少,摇滚乐,残疾人,足球 这些东西把伦敦人的生活表现的淋漓尽致,我很喜欢

无所谓了,这8分钟的引子算什么

张艺谋在雅典的八分钟不是也被骂得狗血淋头么

英国市长的仪态实在不怎么样,英国人的那点假么假事儿都没有了。
8分钟的节目无所谓好不好,无所谓让人明白不明白,只要大家看着高兴就行了。我们开幕式的4大发明老外也不能都明白,看着高兴,就够了。我觉得那8分钟还不错,就是那个车太现代了点。

这个...下次建议还是就留原文吧.机器翻译的实在很多地方看着囧的不行啊,实在要用机器,还是翻成德语吧,还能准确些


很明显不是机器翻译的。个人风格浓了一些是真的,显得有点轻佻,但翻译质量还是不错的

很显然不是机器翻译的
至少是经过人为润色过的

另一个朋友昨晚也在说,那个市长太没品了,那么offiziell的场合不扣西装扣子,两个手还插在口袋了,太不文明了。
对比一下rogge和刘淇,都是规矩的动作和妆扮。

8分钟还行了. 有小贝踢一脚球就OK了.
现场音响不好, 整个晚上的演唱都是乱糟糟的不能怪唱歌的人.

大家都表吃饭只喝汤,自然会有共鸣且润肠
