22、The Olympic Games have changed a lot since they were first held in Athens, Greece, in 1896. Back then, winners got silver medals instead of gold ones. Sounds strange, doesn’t it? People thought silver was better than gold. Also, no women ran in the first Olympics, and only 13 countries took part. China was not one of them. But those aren’t the only differences.
The Frenchman Baron Pierre de Coubertin(顾拜旦)was the man who really wanted the Games to start again. His ideas for the modern Olympics came from the Greek Games thousands of years ago. He hoped they would help to bring world peace.
But it took time for the Olympics to become popular. Not many people thought they were good ideas in 1896, so they were put together poorly. Some tourists even ran in races! Today, more than 10,000 people from about 200 countries take part.
In the early years of the Olympics, there weren’t many sports. Most events were track and field, much like in the first Greek Games. Events usually took place in the Panathenaic Stadium(雅典体育场), and you can still see them today. Players did not wear their countries’ colours in 1896. Their clothes were not like the uniforms people wear today. In fact, players weren’t even picked by their countries back then. They travelled to the Games by themselves and had to use their own money to take part. New sports have been put into the Olympics over time, like badminton and table tennis. Some older games are no longer played, like tug-of-war(拔河). It would be hard to see all the events at this year’s Games, There will be over 300!
Swimming was different in 1896. There was a 1,200-metre race in the sea. A boat took swimmers into the sea and left them to swim back to land. Sometimes rough water made the race dangerous. The first person ever to win that race was Hungarian(匈牙利的)Alfred Hajos. He seemed happy just to finish. “I just wanted to live. That’s more important than winning.” he said. When people or teams won events in 1896, they didn’t get the same things as now. They got olive wreaths(橄榄枝花环)to put on their heads and silver medals.
【1】In the first Olympics, winners were given ________.
A.gold medals and olive wreaths
B.silver and gold medals
C.olive wreaths and flowers
D.silver medals and olive wreaths
【2】Baron Pierre de Coubertin wanted the Olympic Games to start again because ________.
A.many people thought they were good ideas
B.they became popular in 1896
C.he hoped they would help to bring world peace
D.no women ran in the first Olympics
【3】In the early years of the Olympics, ________.
A.most events were track and field
B.players wore the uniforms people wear today
C.people from about 200 countries took part
D.events usually took place in many other countries
【4】________ is no longer played in modern Olympics.
A.Running
B.Tug-of-war
C.Table tennis
D.Swimming

B.there will be too many events for you to see all
C.the Olympic Games have changed a lot
D.events will take place in the Panathenaic Stadium
23、 A father and his son went to a kite-flying festival. The son was happy when he saw the sky filled with colorful kites. He wanted to fly a kite, too. The father then bought a kite for his son.
The son started to fly the kite. Soon it was high up in the sky. After a while, the son said, "Dad, it seems that the string(线) is stopping the kite from flying higher. If we cut it, it will be free and fly even higher. Can we cut it?" The father cut the string off the reel(线轴). The kite started to go higher. This made the little boy happy.
But then, the kite started to come down. It soon fell to the ground. The son was surprised to see this. He asked his father, "I thought that after cutting the string, the kite would fly higher. Why did it fall down?"
The father explained, "The string was not stopping the kite from going higher, but was helping it stay in the sky. You use the string to help the kite go up in the right direction. But when you cut the string, it could no longer support(支持) the kite."

24、Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary reached the top of Qomolangma in 1953. It was an important event in the mountain climbing history. Also, it was a turning point in the lives of Sherpa (夏尔巴) people.
Before 1953, Sherpa people led a very simple and peaceful life. Most of them worked on farms. They had very little connection with people from other parts of the world. Now things have changed, and thanks to technology, the Sherpa world is much better connected. Tourism (旅游业) is also a main force in changing the lives of Sherpas. After 1953, especially in the 1970s, the number of tourists to Nepal (尼泊尔) increased greatly. Today, tourism is the biggest source of income (收入来源) for Sherpas. Many Sherpas now have a richer life.
Back in 1953, education and health care in Sherpa villages were poor. These days, however, there are many schools and medical clinics (医疗诊所). Changes have also come to Sherpas dinner table: they eat healthier food than they used to. They can also get food from other places. Besides, they are able to get and use quality building materials (建筑材料). The new buildings are much safer than they used to be.
There are some Sherpas, however, who like the old way of living their lives. Some older Sherpas are upset that people seem to be moving away from the traditional way of life. They believe that some Sherpas these days think too much about money. As a result, they are losing the ability to pay attention to true happiness.
【1】Now Sherpa people make money mainly by ________.
A.serving tourists
