Where are the Olympic Games held?
The Olympic Games are held every four years in a different city in the world. Athletes from many countries compete in a variety of sports which are divided into winter and summer games.
The Olympic Games began in Greece more than 2,700 years ago. The games were originally part of a religious festival in honor of the Greek Gods. Eventually the games became the most important festival in all of Greece.
The first recorded Olympic competition was held in 776 B.C. It was held in an outdoor stadium which was about 200 meters long and 30 meters wide. The stadium was in a valley, and about forty thousand people watched the event. The first thirteen Olympics consisted of only one race—running.
Since 776 B.C. the games had been held regularly for abort 1,200 years. In the year 397 the Olympics were prohibited by the Roman Emperor.
It was not until 1896 that the first Olympics of modern times were held in Athens. From then on the games are held every four years regularly. The Olympics have become the world’s most important athletic events and a symbol of the sporting friendship of all the people of the world.
选项
A、The Olympic Games are only held in summer.
B、The first Olympic competition was held in 776 B.C.
C、The Games had been once discontinued for a long time.
D、The first Olympics of modern times were held in 1900s.
答案
C
解析
细节判断题。短文提到奥运会在397年的时候被罗马皇帝废止了,直到1896年首届现代奥运会才在希腊雅典举行,可见奥运会曾中断过很长一段时间,即选C项。奥运会分夏季和冬季运动会的.并不只是在夏天进行,A项错误。第一次有历史记录的古代奥运会是在公元前776年举行的,而真正第一次举行奥运会的时间可能更早,所以B项错误。首届现代奥运会是在1896年举行,而不是1900S,D项也错误。
