With the 2010 Winter Games a bit more than a year away, many buildings are rising in and around Vancouver, British Columbia. While much of the construction is in preparation for the Games themselves, some of these new buildings will be condominiums owned by those who plan to make the city their second home.
Many of the waterfront condominiums will have views of the harbor, Vancouver's biggest selling point.
随着2010冬奥会的脚步越来越近，很多建筑在BC省温哥华市以及周边的地区拔地而起。很多新建筑都是为了奥运会而准备的，也有一些建筑是让计划把这里变成第二个家的而所拥有的。
很多海滨的公寓都能一览海港美景——这个温哥华最大的卖点。
A view of False Creek with the 16-building Olympic Village to the left. At right is the BC Place stadium, where the opening and closing ceremonies will take place. The Science World dome, center, was constructed for the 1986 World Exposition.
After the Winter Games, the Olympic Village, which will house about 2,800 athletes, is to be converted into a 730-unit luxury condominium complex called Millennium Water.
这张照片的左边是福溪在建的16做奥运村建筑，右边是卑诗体育场，开幕式和闭幕式都将在这里举行。科学世界穹顶中心是为了1986年世博会所建造的。
在冬奥会结束之后，能容纳2800名运动员的奥运村将会被转变成一个叫做千年水的730单元的豪华公寓
Although it is only 35 miles north of the U.S. border, Vancouver looks and feels different from any city in the United States or, for that matter, Canada. With its glass-and-steel towers, Vancouver could be in Asia.

尽管温哥华距离美国的边境只有35英里远，但是它的外貌和感觉却与美国完全不同。这些玻璃和钢构建的摩天大楼让温哥华看起来像一座亚洲城市。
左面是在半岛南边的尽头市区的耶鲁镇上的一群孩子在踢足球。
Yaletown is similar to the SoHo neighborhood of Manhattan, with cafes and housewares stores.
耶鲁镇和曼哈顿的SOHO地区很像，到处都是咖啡店和家用品的店。
Much of the peninsula is surrounded by a sea wall, which is ideal for walking, biking and jogging.
半岛被海水所包围，因此这里是理想的散步、骑车和慢跑的处所。
At the tip of the peninsula, Stanley Park has a small thicket of genuine totem poles.
在半岛的末端，Stanley公园有一小群图腾柱。
At Coal Harbor, construction continues on a new convention center.
在卡尔港，这个建筑成为了新的政治中心。
Sea planes dock in Coal Harbor.
海上飞机停靠在港口中。
A large inukshuk, a traditional stone sculpture used by Canada's Inuit people, overlooks the English Bay. The symbol is part of the logo for the 2010 Winter Games.
一个巨大的加拿大原住民制作的巨石雕像，俯瞰着英吉利湾。这个雕像也是2010年冬奥会的LOGO。
By design, there are no freeways through the city. Those who want to head north to Whistler, where the Olympic skiing events will be held, can use the Lions Gate bridge, which spans the first narrows of the Burrard Inlet.
这个城市被设计成没有高速公路哦穿过它。想要去温哥华北面举办奥运会滑雪项目的地方的人可以走穿过Burrard Inlet海峡的狮门大桥。
