1. 古典和现代奥运会简史 A brief introduction to the Ancient Olympic Games and Modern Olympic Games:The Greeks held the first Olympic games in the year 776 BC and that's over 2700 years ago. At that time, the games had only one event, a sprint. The race was run by men who competed in the nude, which means naked. A wreath of olive branches was placed on the winner's head (in Greek, this is called a kotinos). The olive tree was the sacred tree of Athens, Greece.The ancient Greeks dedicated the Olympic Games to the god Zeus. The original games were held on the plain of Olympia in Peloponnesos, Greece. Women were neither allowed to compete in the games nor to watch them, because the games were dedicated to Zeus and were therefore meant for men.But now Women are allowed to compete in the modern Olympic Games. The modern revival of the Olympic games is due in a large measure to the efforts of Pierre, baron de Coubertin, of France. They were held, appropriately enough, in Athens in 1896. And the IOC, the International Olympic Committee was held two years before that. And Olympic events for women made their first appearance in 1912. But the first meeting and the ones that followed at Paris (1900) and at St. Louis (1904) were hampered by poor organization and the absence of worldwide representation.The first successful modern game was held at London in 1908; since then the games have been held in cities throughout the world.A separate series of winter Olympic meets started in 1924 in France. Since 1994 the winter games have been held in even-numbered years in which the summer games are not contested. Until late in the 20th century, the modern Olympics were open only to amateurs, but the governing bodies of several sports now permit professionals to compete as well.2,奥运会对中国的意义It helps to strengthen the spirit of patriotismFrom the Olympic Games held in many cities of development experience, every Olympic host, will enable nationals of the host country national cohesion and the spirit of patriotism to be an unprecedented increase.
