The first ancient Olympics were held in 776 B.C. The games got their name from Olympia, the Greek city where they took place. Like the summer Olympics of today, the ancient Olympics were held every four years.
Thousands of people from all over the Greek world came to watch. The main stadium held about 45,000 people. "We have accounts of visitors and pilgrims setting up tents all around the site", Lisa Cerrato of Tufts University said.
During the first Olympics, there was only one competition—a 200-meter race. But over time the games grew to include wrestling, chariot racing, boxing, and other sports. Women were not allowed to compete, but they had their own separate games.
"The ancient athlete became celebrities(名人), just like today. They often lived the rest of their lives being treated to free dinners", Cerrato said. "City-states even tried to steal away each other’s athletes by offering them various awards".
The ancient Olympics existed until A.D. 393. But the modem Olympics are still going strong.
选项
A、In Athens.
B、In Olympics.
C、In a town.
D、In a state.
答案
C
解析
本题的依据句是文章的开头两个句子。city和town是同义词,所以应该选C。A和D在依据句中没有出现,属于无关信息。但B项选择的Olympics是"奥运会"的意思,而原文中的Olympia是一个城市的名字,所以B项选择为错误信息。
