It may be too late to ask such a question. But I still want to know about it. China is a country with long history, so her culture is quite hard to be understood by people in a different backgrounds. To say the truth, I know the programs on the opening ceremony of Beijing Olympic Games stands for the Chinese culture. But even as a Chinese, I still can not undersand most of them. So what do you think about the ceremony? Do you know what they stand for? Do you like them?
