A. What do you know about the Olympic Games in Ancient Greece?

Read the text to check yourselves.

Ancient Olympics Probably the greatest honour1 that can come to an athlete is to win gold at the Olympic Games.

But did you know that the idea of having Olym¬pic Games is more than 2, 500 years old?

A Greek legend says that it was Hercules ['h3 : kjuli : z], son of Zeus [zju : s], who started Olympic Games.

The earliest Olympic records ['rekDidz] we know about go back to the year 776 ВС.

The Greeks had the Games once in every four years for more than 1, 000 years, until the Romans stopped them in 394 AD.

The ancient Greeks believed the Games so important that they measured2 time by them.

They called the four years an Olympiad.

The Games were an example of the Greek idea that people should develop their bodies as well as brains.

Nothing was serious enough to stand in the way of the Games.

If a war was going on in the country, they stopped the war, not the Games.

The ancient Olympics had only one athletic competition — a running race of about 183 metres (the length of the stadium).

Only men could take part in the Games.

The powerful Spartans changed the programme and included more sports in it.

The winners of the Games became he¬roes ['hrarsuz] in the country.

In a year I was a part of Russian national team.

And through two in Kabayeva's biography the big victory was won – it became the first in the European championship.

In 1999 I reached still big heights – I won in the world championship.

But next year at the Olympic Games in Sydney became only the third.

In 2001 it was disqualified for doping.

Having returned to sports after disqualification, Alina Kabayeva in the biography became the first at the Olympic Games in Athens in 2004.

By the way, the gymnast considers as the happiest country of Japan.

Exactly there the girl in 1999 became the double world champion and for the first time the all - around champion.

Forever in memory of the sportswoman there will be also Spain.

In 2000 in Zaragosa and in 2002 in Granade Alina received a title of the all - around champion of Europe, and in 2001 in Madrid Kabayeva the next title of the all - around champion of the world waited.
