The year before the first modem Olympic Games，Greece invited China to send a team．But the Qing government（政府）didn't send any athletes to the games．China did not take part in the Olympics until the l0th games，held in Los Angeles in l932．There，Liu Changchun took part in the men's l00-metre and 200-metre races．He did not win any medals．

China won her first gold medal at the 23th Olympics in Los Angeles in l984．when Xu Haifeng won the men's free shooting event．China came in fourth with l5 gold medals in all．

At the 2000 Olympics in Sydney，Australia，China won 28 gold medals，entering the top three of the medal chart for the first time．September 22nd．2000 was named China Day because China won six gold，three silver and one bronze medals on that day．

The 28th Olympic Games were held in Athens，Greece．Two hundred and two countries took part in them．China got the second place with thirty-two gold，seventeen silver and fourteen bronze medals．

We all know that in 2008，the 29th Olympic Games will be held in Beijing．We hope that we can win more medals so that we can get the first place．
