For Love or Money
Sports is one of the world’s largest industries, and most athletes are professionals who are well paid for their effort. Because an athlete succeeds by achievement only not by economic background or family connections—sports can be route to wealth, and many athletes play more for money than for love.
(1)In the ancient Olympics the winner got only a wreath (花冠) of olive leaves. Even though the winners became national heroes, the games remained amateur for centuries.(2)As time passed, however, the contests became increasingly less amateur and cities began to hire athletes to represent them.(3)
In 1896, the Olympic games were received with the same goal of pure amateur competition. The rules bar athletes who have ever received a $ 50 prize or an athletic scholarship, or who have spent four weeks in a training camp.(4)He was Spiridon Loues. He won the marathon race. After the race, a rich Athenian offered him anything he wanted. A true amateur, Loues accepted only a car and a horse.(5)But Loues was an exception and now, as the Chairman of the German Olympic Committee said, "Nobody pays any attention to these rules." Many countries pay their athletes to train year-round, and Olympic contestants are eager to sell their names to companies that make from ski equipment to breakfast cereals.
A. Athletes won fame, but no money.
B. This has not always been true.
C. Then he gave up running forever.
D. At least one competitor in the 1896 games met all these qualifications.
E. Olympics has become the biggest games in the world.
F. By the fourth century A. D. the Olympics were mined, and they were soon ended.
