周四，北京2008奥运会圆满落幕4天后，在北京天坛，中国在盛大的仪式中又点燃了2008残奥会圣火。

Four days after closing the 2008 Beijing Games in triumph， China lit the 2008 Paralympics torch amid pomp and ceremony at Beijing"s Temple of Heaven Thursday。

当天雾蒙蒙的，但后来天气放晴，阳光照在天坛祈年殿前一面凹透镜中，点燃了引火棒。

Hazey weather cleared enough to allow the sun to light a wick placed in a concave mirror at the front of the Prayer Hall for Good Harvests of the Temple of Heaven。

接着，火种由残奥会击剑选手金晶传给了北京奥组委主席刘淇。金晶在火炬全球传递巴黎站中因英勇保护火炬而成为民族英雄。

The flame was then passed to Beijing Olympic chief Liu Qi by Jin Jing， a Paralympic fencer whose fierce defense of the Olympic torch during the Paris leg of the global relay made her a national hero。

刘淇将火炬传给了中国国家总理温家宝。温家宝点燃了圣火盆，并宣布接力开始。之后，残疾演员表演了盛大的中国传统舞蹈。

Liu passed the torch to Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao， who lit a cauldron and announced the commencement of the relay， sparking a bombastic display of traditional Chinese dance by disabled artists。

圣火周五将传往古都西安，然后周六传到南方工业重镇深圳。

The flame will travel on Friday to ancient capital Xian， before heading to southern industrial hub Shenzhen on Saturday。
