Should Shanghai bid for(申办) the Summer Olympics in 2028? Here are some people’s opinions.

Some people said, “The games will improve Shanghai’s global influence and the city is powerful and must try to become a platform(平台) for major international dialogues.（3） Shanghai has succeeded in holding the World Expo in 2010 and the city can also hold a successful Summer Olympics.” Others, however, are not sure that it’s a good idea. They think the Olympics would be too expensive and the money could be better spent on other things.（4）The 2008 Beijing Olympics brought much prestige(声望) to the city and to China, but its cost, over $40 million, was high and the Olympic site(场地) in the center of the city is now largely unused. Could Shanghai learn from Beijing’s experience and do it better?

My answer is yes. As one American said, “A great city has to do great things.” Shanghai is a great city and is not afraid of facing challenges. Holding the 2028 Summer Olympics would prove that.
