标题：奥运门票“黄牛党”现身网络

    随着北京奥运会的临近，许多人梦寐以求的奥运门票也在网上开始热炒，有些开闭幕式的门票已炒到了十几万元。在网上，有人公开拍卖奥运比赛门票，起价几千元不等，比原价高出数倍。

    请看《中国日报》的报道：

    Olympic ticket scalpers move in－Advertisements for the sale of Olympic tickets can be easily found online, but at a price. Many Beijing residents said they were disappointed with the speculative reselling of tickets. It was unfair to genuine sports fans. In response, organizers of the Beijing Games said speculative reselling was a breach of the law.

    奥运门票黄牛党现身――在网上很容易就能搜到出售奥运门票的广告，只是价钱很高。很多北京市民表示他们对倒票行为感到失望。这对真正的体育爱好者来说是不公平的。北京奥运会组织者对此做出回应说倒票行为是违法的。

    该报道中，scalper指someone who buys something and resells it at a price far above the initial cost，就是我们常说的“黄牛”，他们的行为一般叫做speculative reselling of tickets（投机性转卖各类票证），即“倒票”；speculative reselling就是“倒卖”。（英语点津 Helen 编辑）
