听力原文： A top sports official in China's mainland has said that the mainland will "try its best" to include Taiwan in the torch relay route of the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympic Games.

"We are holding active consultations with the Beijing Organizing Committee for the 2008 Olympic Games about how to let the people in Taiwan share the Olympic glory," said Lin Peng, head of the State General Administration of Sports, on the sideline of the ongoing annual full session of the 10th National People's Congress.

"As I know, many people in Taiwan hope that the torch relay of the sacred flame of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games can also cover Taiwan," Lin told the deputies representing Taiwan Province during a panel discussion.

However, he said that the exact route of the 2008 Olympic torch relay is not finalized yet, and the final plan still needs to be approved by the International Olympic Committee.

"The 2008 Games is a grand event for people on both sides of the Taiwan Straits. There are many other things we can do in terms of cross-Straits cooperation for the Games," said Liu.

The Beijing Olympics' torch relay is expected to start in March 2008 and last until August 8, when the Games is scheduled to open in the Chinese capital. The relay will involve some 15,000 torch bearers.
