Tokyo To Host 2020 Olympic Games
东京将举办2020夏季奥运会
Tokyo beat out Madrid and Istanbul this week, winning the bid to host the 2020 Summer Olympic Games. Japan’s capital city campaigned with the words, “the Olympics will be safe in our hands”. Its official slogan will be Discover Tomorrow. Tokyo hosted the Summer Games in 1964, and will be the first Asian city to host the Games more than once. The city was also scheduled to host the Games in 1940, but the event was cancelled due to World War II. Before the 2020 Olympics, the world will watch the 2014 Winter Olympics in Russia, the 2016 Summer Olympics in Brazil, and the 2018 Winter Olympics in South Korea. IOC president Jacques Rogge, who announced the 2020 winning city, will be retiring this week.
本周，东京击败马德里和伊斯坦布尔，获得2020夏季奥运会主办权。作为日本首都，东京的竞选标语为“安全办奥运”。官方标语为“发现明天”。东京曾在1964年举办夏季奥运会，东京也成为两次举办奥运会的亚洲城市。东京原计划于1940年举办奥运会，但因二战被迫取消。在2020年到来之前，俄罗斯将举办2014冬季奥运会，2016巴西夏季奥运会，2018韩国冬季奥运会。奥组委主席雅克·罗格也将于本周卸任，他也是2020主办城市宣布者。
