請(qǐng)將下面這段話翻譯成英文：

2008年夏天,中國舉辦了北京奧運(yùn)會(huì)。從8月份開始,成千上萬的頂尖運(yùn)動(dòng)員和數(shù)以百萬計(jì)的奧運(yùn)迷就涌入北京。為了準(zhǔn)備奧運(yùn)會(huì),北京規(guī)劃了很多新建筑, 包括體育場(chǎng)館、為奧運(yùn)迷們準(zhǔn)備的賓館,還有供運(yùn)動(dòng)員和教練居住的奧運(yùn)村。在這些新建筑中,有一些和世界上其他建筑相比是獨(dú)樹一幟的,比如國家體育場(chǎng)“鳥巢”(the"Bird's Nest"）。盡管這座體育場(chǎng)是由鋼筋混凝土(steel and concrete)建成的,但它看起來就像一個(gè)由樹枝筑成的巨大鳥巢。
