These were truly exceptionnal  Games这是一届真正的无与伦比的奥运会

------The Beijing Olympic Games are "truly exceptional Games," said International Olympic Committee (IOC) President Jacques Rogge at the Games' closing ceremony staged in the National Stadium in north Beijing on Sunday night.

"truly exceptional Games"就是罗格先生用的“新词”。exceptional意味着“优越的”、“杰出的”、“卓越的”，truly则给这一赞誉加上了一种由衷的感情色彩。别看是十分简单的词汇，但在这一世界瞩目的场合，措词是非常重要的哦。“无与伦比”，这就是罗格对北京奥运会的评价。
