12、况。现在他正在采访一位2008年奥林匹克运动会的志愿者李燕。帕：我叫帕萨尼亚斯。我生活在你们所说的“古希腊”。我曾经写过很久以前奥林匹克运动会的情况。现在我来到你们这个时代，想了解有关当代奥运会的情况 ，因为我知道 2004年奥运会是在我的祖国举行的。我可以问你几个有关现代奥林匹克运动会的问题吗？,李：天哪！你真的来自那么久远的年代？当然你可以问你想问的问题。你想知道什么呢？帕：你们的奥运会多久举行一次？李：每四年一次。运动会主要有两种：夏季奥运会和冬季奥运会。这两种奥运会都是四年举行一次。冬季奥运会总是在夏季奥运会的前两年举行。只有达到他们各自项目统一标准的运动员才会被接受参加奥运会。选手可
13、以来自全世界任何一个地方。帕：冬季奥运会？冬天运动员怎么可能赛跑啊？又怎么可能赛马呢？,李：噢，不！冬奥会并不包括跑步和骑马比赛，但是却有像滑冰和滑雪这类需要冰雪的比赛项目。所以才叫它冬季奥运会。跑步、游泳、划船和一些团队项目是在夏季运动会上进行。帕；我明白了。你原来说邀请来的运动员来自世界各地。你指的是希腊世界？我们希腊各个城市之间曾经为了赢得荣誉而彼此竞争。别的国家不能参加，奴隶和妇女也不能参加。李：现在只要他们的运动员达到了参赛的标准，任何国家都能参赛。总共有250多个项目，每个项目都有自己的标准。妇女不仅允许参加，而且她们还在体操、竞技和团队等比赛项目中起着非常重要的作用,帕：请等一下
14、！所有这么多项目，这么多国家，甚至妇女也都参加！所有这些参赛的人住在哪里呢？李：每届奥运会都有一个特殊的村庄(奥运村)供参赛的人住，一个主要的接待大楼，好几个供比赛用的体育场，还有一个室内体育馆。帕：那听起来要花很多钱吧。会有人想承办奥运会吗？李：事实上，每个国家都想抓住这个机会。被选中不仅要承担巨大的责任同时也享有极大的荣誉。国与国之间争取奥运会承办权的竞争就跟争夺奥运奖牌一样地激烈。2008年的奥运将会在中国的北京举行，你知道吗？帕：是的，听说过，你们一定很自豪。,李：当然。那么2012年的奥运将会在伦敦举行。他们现在已开始筹划。在伦敦的东部将为运动员建立一个新的奥运村和所有的运动场。当然
15、还会设计新的奖牌帕：你刚才说奖牌是吗？就连橄榄枝花环也被取代了！天哪，你们也为奖金而竞赛吗？李：不，不是的。仍然是为了能够跑得更快，跳的更高，掷得更远。你知道，奥运会的口号就是“更快，更高，更强”。帕：这是个好消息。很有趣！占用了你的时间，非常感谢。,二、将下列单词或词组译成英语，然后参阅Unit 2的词汇表自主勘误。1. 竞争， 比赛 v _2. 古代的 adj. _3. 奖章，勋章， 纪念章 n _4. 规则的，定期的adj. _5. 承认，接纳，容许 v _6. 运动员 n _7. 做东，主办，招待，主人 v&n. _,1. compete2. ancient 3. medal4. re
