2014年索契冬季奥运会即第22届冬季奥林匹克运动会，于2014年2
月7日至2月23日在俄罗斯联邦索契市举行。
The 22nd Winter Olympic Games opened on Friday night in a spectacular ceremony which was attended by Chinese President Xi Jinping at the invitation of his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin. 第22届冬季奥运会周五晚间盛大开幕，中国国家主席*应俄罗斯总统普京邀请出席了开幕式。 会徽（Emblem）
The emblem of the 2014 Winter Olympics, unveiled in December 2009, carries a minimalistic style, and unlike previous Olympic emblems, consists of typefaces with no drawn elements at all. The \"Sochi\" and \"2014\" lettering is designed to mirror each other vertically (particularly on the \"hi\" and \"14\" characters), \"reflecting\" the contrasts of Russia's landscape (such as Sochi itself, a meeting point between the Black Sea and the Western Caucasus).
2014年冬奥会的会徽于2009年12月公布，会徽采用极简风格，与之前历届奥运会徽不同的是，本届会徽只使用了打印字体，未包含任何绘画元素。更多英语备考资讯，请关注腾讯认证蔡章兵主编QQ757722345空间或奇速英语微信公众号“qisuen” .Sochi和2014呈上下相互映照样式（尤其是hi和14这两组字符），反映了俄罗斯地形相互对照的特点（比如索契就是黑海和西高加索的交汇点）。 吉祥物（Mascots）
For the first time in Olympic history, a public vote was held to decide the mascots for the 2014 Winter Olympics. On February 26 2011, the official mascots were unveiled, consisting of a polar bear, a European hare, and an Amur leopard.
2014年冬奥会的吉祥物由公众投票决定，这在奥运历史上还是第一次。2011年2月26日，官方吉祥物正式公布，由一只北极熊、一只欧洲兔和一只远东豹组成。 口号（Motto）
Hot. Cool. Yours. 冰火激情属于你
关于2014年索契冬奥会开幕式的英文报道
Music, dance, lights and fireworks...the 2014 Winter Olympics has officially opened in the Russian resort city of Sochi with plenty of fanfare and bravado. The opening ceremony of the most expensive Olympics was an opportunity to dispel the anger, fear and suspicion that has marred the build-up to the Games.
Just after the sun set over the Caucasus Mountains and along
the shore of the Black Sea just outside the Fisht Olympic Stadium, Russian TV star Yana Churikova shouted to a crowd still taking their seats: \"Welcome to the center of the universe!\"
2014 Winter Olympics kick off with grand opening
The official ceremony opened with the Russian alphabet projected on the stadium floor, as a young girl told the story of her country’s heroes and their globally renowned achievements. A satellite image of the earth was then projected on the floor of the stadium as the athletes began the parade of nations.
But the ceremony did not go off without a glitch as the lighting of the five Olympic Rings was ruined when only four of them turned on and they all failed to erupt into white flames as planned. The nearly three-hour ceremony ended with the lighting of the Olympic cauldron and a spectacular fireworks display. The honor of lighting the cauldron went to Russian hockey great Vladislav Tretiak and three-time gold medallist Irina Rodnina.
