According to the characteristics of English sports news, this thesis is intended to analyze the sports news reports of the2012London Olympic Games from the perspective of the headlines and news discourse in order to guide the translation practice with the Skopos theory. The study shows the point is to satisfy the readers’ needs in the course of E-C translation on sports news reports and the translator plays a big role during this course, who can select the most important content to meet the readers’ needs.
