Basketball legend Yao Ming, one of the highest-profile CPPCC member, believes that Beijing's bid for the Winter Olympics will take sport in China to new level.
??? 作為一名最引人矚目的政協(xié)委員，籃球巨星姚明相信如果北京成功申辦冬奧會(huì)，將帶領(lǐng)中國(guó)體育事業(yè)進(jìn)入新的高度。

"The Beijing 2022 bid would make Chinese people understand more about sport, and as the Winter Olympics feature more outdoor events than the Summer Games, it will get more Chinese involved in sport," said the former NBA All-Star center.
??? “北京2022冬奧會(huì)將能讓人民更好地認(rèn)識(shí)體育運(yùn)動(dòng)，因?yàn)槎瑠W會(huì)比夏天的奧運(yùn)會(huì)有更多的戶外項(xiàng)目，它將能讓更多的中國(guó)人參與進(jìn)來(lái)，”這位前NBA全明星賽的中鋒說(shuō)。

"Since the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, Chinese people have had more profound understanding of sport, and the national fitness drive has gained more and more attention from the public. I believe, if we win the Winter Olympics bid, the mass enthusiasm in sports, especially winter sports, will go to a new level," said Han, a retired badminton player who won multiple world titles in 1980s.
??? “自從2008年奧運(yùn)會(huì)以來(lái)，中國(guó)人民更深入地了解了體育運(yùn)動(dòng)，全民健身運(yùn)動(dòng)贏得了大眾廣泛的關(guān)注。我相信，如果我們贏得了冬奧會(huì)的舉辦權(quán)，大眾對(duì)體育運(yùn)動(dòng)，尤其是冬季體育運(yùn)動(dòng)的熱情將會(huì)去到一個(gè)新的高度，”韓愛(ài)萍說(shuō)，她是曾在1980年代贏得多項(xiàng)羽毛球世界獎(jiǎng)牌。

"Compared with winter sports, summer sports are better developed in China. But on the other hand, we can also say winter sports have bigger potential in our country. If our bid succeeds, such potential can be well released," he added.
??? “比起冬季運(yùn)動(dòng)，中國(guó)的夏季運(yùn)動(dòng)是發(fā)展得好些。但另一方面看來(lái)，我們也可以說(shuō)冬季運(yùn)動(dòng)的發(fā)展在我國(guó)具有巨大的潛力。如果我們申辦成功，這股潛力將得到釋放?！彼a(bǔ)充道。
