The Olympic flame

The Olympic Flame is a symbol carried over from the ancient Olympics, where a flame burned at the altar（祭壇）of Zeus throughout competition. It was finally reintroduced at the 1924 Amsterdam Games, and again burned in 1932.

Carl Diem, chairman of the organizing committee for the 1936 Berlin Games, proposed that the flame be lit in Greece and transported to Berlin via a torch relay. The idea was adopted(采納) and continued at every Olympic Games since 1952. The flame is lit at the ancient site of Olympia by the natural rays of the sun reflected off a curved mirror. It is lit at a ceremony by women dressed in robes resembling those worn in ancient times, who then pass it to the first relay runner.

The Olympic motto

“Citius, altius, fortius” is a Latin phrase meaning “swifter, higher, stronger”, which Baron de Coubertin borrowed from Father Henri Martin Dideon of Paris. Dideon was headmaster of Arcueil College, and used the phrase to describe the athletic achievements of students at the school. He had previously been at the Albert Le Grand school, where the Latin words were carved in stone above the main entrance.

The Olympic oath

“In the name of all competitors, I promise that we shall take part in these Olympic Games, respecting and abiding by the rules that govern them, in the true spirit of sportsmanship, for the glory of sport and the honor of our teams.”

Written by Baron de Coubertin, the oath is taken by an athlete from the host nation while holding a corner of the Olympic flag. The athletes’ oath was first taken by Belgian fencer Victor Boin at the 1920 Antwerp Games. A judge from the host country also speaks the oath, with slightly different wording.

1.The Olympic flame was first burned at _______ in modern times.

A. the 1920 Games

B. the 1924 Games

C. the 1932 Games

D. the 1936 Games

2.The underlined word "proposed" can be replaced with .

A. ordered

B. insisted

C. suggested

D. requested

3.From the passage we can learn ________.

A. the first torch relay was held at the 1936 Berlin Games

B. before 1936, no flames burned at the Olympic Games

C. Carl Diem proposed that flames should burn at the Olympic Games

D. The Olympic torch has burned since 1924

4.The Olympic motto was .

A. written by Baron de Coubertin

D. borrowed from Father Henri Dideon of Paris

1．Whether or not to go to university will probably be the biggest educational decision you ever make．After battling with student finance，deciding whether or not to take a year out can be as terrifying as deciding where to move to for the three years．
Some students will have planned their year out for months，but，for others，slipped grades may force a gap year（間隔年），either to retake exams or to apply to different universities．Others might just need time to think．Thankfully，for U．K．students，taking a gap year remains a good option and it can be one of the most productive and fulfilling years of their life．
Whether you've planned and budgeted for a year abroad，or have made a last-minute decision to delay your first year，the options are endless．Traveling，volunteering and so on are all there for the talking．With so many things on offer，it's important to remember that 12months won't be enough time to do all of them，so decide early and work towards making whatever you want to do a reality．
Researching a gap year is exciting，and often the place to start is at home．Family and friends can be a great source of inspiration．Your school or college might be fully equipped to advise you on what to do when further education is on hold．Don't underestimate（低估）the power of the Internet，either．Typing a"gap year"into a search engine might seem too obvious，but planning to travel around the world for months on your own is not appropriate．
To stay at home or go abroad is likely to be the first question you consider，but in this era of budget flights，doing both is practicable．A European inter-rail ticket（火車票）can be as little as£159．For those loving traveling，they must be on the special watchfulness for tricks in the process．Agencies can organize your year abroad for you，and often，it is more effective to make the bookings through the agencies．But flights and other forms of transport within Asia and America are much cheaper when bought in the countries rather than bought in advance．
12．According to Paragraph 2，why do some students have to take a gap year？C
A．Because they are faced with financial problems．
B．Because they dislike what they are learning．
C．Because they haven't got satisfying grades．
D．Because they intend to hang out for a year．
13．The underline words"on hold"in Paragraph 4mean"B"．
A．taken in       B．put off       C．given up       D．turned out
14．What can we learn from the last paragraph？D
A．Few students can afford to go abroad．
B．Traveling around Europe costs nothing．
C．It's better to go to Asia and south America．
D．Travellers should make sure they aren't cheated．
15．The auther's attitude towards a gap year may best described asA
A．supportive     B．negative      C．defensive     D．sensitive．
