It is an incredibly important record of the absolutely, well almost, unique moment in the history of the country – of the capital obviously but also the whole country's been pulled into this, I think very successfully.

Helen: Anne 認為這次展覽的主要目的是起到記載歷史的作用 an important record. 奧運不只是屬于倫敦，整個英國都被奧運帶動起來了，the whole country has been pulled into it.

Rob: What about other people at the exhibition launch? What did they think about the photographs?

Helen: 殘疾運動員 Andy Barrow 訓練時的照片也在肖像館展出，他很興奮的說：

I think they've got all the raw energy there. It is a contact sport and we are proud of that fact – it's one of main the selling points – and the picture just screams that out really.

Rob: Andy plays for the GB wheelchair rugby squad and he was photographed with his team-mate Mandip Sammi. He said the photographs show raw energy.

Helen: 展示出原始的能量 raw energy. Andy 是橄欖球運動員，但是他們參賽時都坐輪椅。 輪椅 wheelchair.

Rob: Even though the players are in wheelchairs, the game is still very much a contact sport and it's very intense.

Helen: 接觸性運動 a contact sport. 很緊張劇烈 very intense.

Rob: Andy said that the pictures reflect the intensity of rugby and he used the phrase 'to scream out'. It means to be very obvious, immediately understood.

Helen: It's a great phrase. Scream 的原意是大叫，尖叫， 不過在這個短語里，意思是最明顯的，突出的，something screams out at you. 我們再聽一遍 Andy 的感想。

The stadium's about a mile from where I live and I was very proud of East London, very proud of London. London has given me extraordinary opportunities in my life, really, quite extraordinary really. And it's responsible for everything I've done really in one form or other. So we wanted to, we wanted to reflect that.

Helen: 反映什么東西 to reflect something. 我們聽到 Danny 說起倫敦給他帶來了不平凡的機遇 extraordinary opportunities. 他為倫敦感到驕傲 proud of London. 他今天的成功來自于倫敦創(chuàng)造的機會。

Rob: The Games have had massive support from everyone around the country. How do you feel about it, Helen?

Helen: I am really looking forward to it for sure. 我抽簽得到了4張足球決賽的票子。

Rob: Well lucky you. Any chance of China getting to the finals?

Helen: Well, you never know, it's a long shot, but anything can happen at the Olympics. 感謝收聽，下次再會。Bye bye!

Rob: Bye bye!
