What is the mascot of this year’s Winter Olympics? What is its name? What does it mean?
The mascots of the Turin Winter Olympics are two little people, one named NEVE (Chinese transliteration is Neve) and the other is named GLIZ (Chinese transliteration is Glitz). It is reported that NEVE means "snow" in Italian and Gliz means "ice". Both mascots have white heads, NEVE's head looks like a snowball, and Gliz's head looks like an ice cube. Many people say that the mascots look like a young couple and are very cute. Some people also say that Gliz does not mean "ice", it is not Italian, it is just a nickname for a personal name. Strangely enough, there are very few of these mascots for sale on the market, and I don’t know why. Two cute cartoon characters are the mascots of the Turin Winter Olympics. The one with a round head and wearing red clothes is a little girl named Nivi; the other one with a square head and wearing blue clothes is a little boy, his name is Glitz.
Although the Turin Winter Olympics are only about three months away, perhaps the influence of winter sports in our country is still relatively limited, and everyone should be relatively unfamiliar with these two mascots.
Our reporter showed the Fuwa, the mascot of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, to the people of Turin and immediately won applause. A torchbearer took away a Coca-Cola souvenir can with a Fuwa printed on it and said: "Chinese people are smarter than Italians. Five mascots will definitely sell for more money than two."

The appearance of the torch of this Winter Olympics is very unique , some say it looks like a golf club, others say it looks like a cobra's head.
Sponsored fighting outside the mall In a square in the center of Turin, the Olympic Organizing Committee has provided a space as a sponsor village for the official sponsors of this Winter Olympics. In order to attract the participation of the public and tourists, multinational companies such as Coca-Cola, Samsung, General Motors, Fiat and Panasonic have shown their unique skills and built temporary buildings and stages with their own characteristics. Coca-Cola has built a large media salon that looks like a truck. It provides free computers and broadband services, free drinks and TVs for reporters covering the Winter Olympics. It is warm and comfortable like a high-end hotel. The company also built an exhibition hall for Olympic pictures and physical objects with an area of 2,000 square meters, and provided a large commemorative medal exchange center for the public. The American General Company's idea is even more novel. It temporarily built a circular skating rink of nearly 1,000 square meters around a bronze statue, provided free skates, and attracted hundreds of children to play in it, turning the Winter Olympics into a festival with widespread public participation. .
The weather in Turin is like spring. The temperature in Turin today is close to 10 degrees Celsius, and the sun is shining brightly. Some people actually wore short-sleeved shirts in the urban sun! Such good weather is definitely not a good thing for the Winter Olympics. The grass in Turin's urban area is actually not yellow, and there isn't much snow on the nearby mountains. It is reported that the weather in Turin last week was very cold and there was heavy snowfall. The weather forecast says that the weather will get colder next week, and officials from the Turin Olympic Organizing Committee are currently praying to God and preferably keeping a gloomy face. Fortunately, the snow is still thick at the higher altitude arena. In addition, if God doesn't change his face, artificial snow can also be used to deal with it.
