1. Introduction
As we know, the ancient Olympic Games took place in Olympia in Greece every four years between 776BC and 339BC. Only men and boys could compete in the ancient Olympic Games. Married women were not even allowed to watch the Games; only young girls, boys and men could watch.
However, in modern times, there are two main sets of Games—the Summer and Winter Olympics, and both are held every four years. Athletes from any country who have reached the agreed standard for their event will be admitted as competitors. Therefore, there are many significant differences between the modern and ancient Olympics, although certain similarities exist.
In this text, Pausanias, an ancient Greek writer, has come on a magical journey to find out more about the ancient and modern Olympics. Has he got what he wants to know? I think you have got the answer. OK. First, let’s do a survey about Olympics.

The first picture is the statue of a great Greek. His name is Pausanias. He was a famous traveler and writer in the second century AD.

P: My name is Pausanias. I live in what youcall “Ancient Greece” and I used to write about the Olympic Games a long timeago. I’ve come to your time to findout about the present-day Olympic Games because I know that in 2004 they wereheld in my homeland. May I ask yousome questions about the modern Olympics?
L: Good heavens! Have you really come from solong ago? But of course you can ask any questions you like. What would you liketo know?
P: How often do you hold your Games?
L: Every four years. There are two main setsof Games—the Winter and the Summer Olympics, and both are held every four yearson a regular basis. The WinterOlympics are usually held two years before the Summer Games. Only athletes who have reached the agreedstandard for their event will be admittedas competitors. They may come fromanywhere in the world.
P: Winter Games? How can the runners enjoy competing in winter? And what abouthorses?
L: Oh no! There are no running races or horseriding events. Instead there are competitionslike skiing and ice skating which need snow and ice. That’s why they’re calledthe Winter Olympics. It’s in the Summer Olympics that you have the runningraces, together with swimming, sailing and all the team sports.
P: I see. Earlier you said that athletes areinvited from all over the world. Do you mean the Greek world? Our Greek citiesused to compete against each other just for the honour of winning. No othercountries could join in, nor could slavesor women!
L: Nowadaysany country can take part if their athletes are good enough. There are over 250sports and each one has its own standard. Women are not only allowed, but playa very important role in gymnastics,athletics, team sports and …
P:Please wait a minute! Allthose events, all those countries and even women taking part! Where are all theathletes housed?
L:For each Olympics, aspecial village is built for them to live in, a main reception building,several stadiums for competitions,and a gymnasium as well.
P: That sounds very expensive. Does anyonewant to host the Olympic Games?
L: As a matter of fact, every county wantsthe opportunity. It’s a great responsibilitybut also a great honour to be chosen. There’s as much competition amongcountries to host the Olympics as to win Olympic medals. The 2008 Olympics willbe held in Beijing,China. Did you know that?
P: Oh yes! You must be very proud.
L:Certainly. And after thatthe 2012 Olympics will be held in London.They have already started planning for it. A new village for the athletes andall the stadiums will be built to the east of London. New medals will be designed of course and …
P: Did you say medals? So even the olivewreath has been replaced. Oh dear!Do you compete for prize money too?
L: No, we don’t. It’s still all about beingable to run faster, jump higher and throw further. That’s the motto of the OLympics, you know—“Swifter, Higher and Stronger.”
P:Well, that’s good news.How interesting! Thank you so much for your time.
