The 2008 Beijing Olympics began officially on Friday 8th August 2008 at 8 pm in front of a crowd of 90,000 eager spectators in the Bird's Nest stadium.

Things got off to a bang with a starting firework display which lit up Beijing's skyline, followed by a total of 2,008 energetic drummers beating a countdown（倒计时）. Then the crowd was treated to an amazing sequence（系列） pretty and carefully designed scenes which took them through 5,000 years of Chinese history and culture.

After these performances, it was time for the athletes themselves to take center stage. In keeping with tradition, Olympic founders Greece led the 204 competing nations into the stadium.

China's 639 athletes entered last behind towering flag bearer Yao Ming, to a thunderous reception from the crowd.

Finally, the main torch was lit by a jet of fire from Chinese Olympic hero Li Ning, who had been pulled up to the roof of the stadium on wires.

China, of course, was not alone in watching the opening ceremony. British newspaper The Guardian said the show "outdid all of its former hosts in numbers, colour, noise and expense."

The Financial Times was equally impressed. "No country ever has--or surely will--match the Chinese in effort, human power, organization, creativity and , it has to be said, money they were willing to put into what once a little show."

No pressure on the next host city then! With just four years to go, the London Olympic organizers have promised to deliver an equally inspirational ceremony. Let's hope they can pull it off.

48. We can find the passage in a newspaper most probably in _____________section.

A. music B. sports C. literature D. military

We all accept that sports should stress skill over luck，and fairness over privilege(特权)．
They should be accessible to many and fun to watch．In the end，a sport,s champion should re-
present shared values and served as a role model．
But with today,s advances in technology，the power of sports equipment makers offers great
opportunity for the athletes who have access to the latest technology.
In 2008,108 world records were broken in the sport of swimming．The average number of
world records set in swimming in all past Olympic years is about 22．The average number of
world records set in a non-Olympic year is about 5．Now there are no“old”world records．
Suit technology has been the most widely recognized difference．The sharkskin suit and the
“paper”suits were all made public by suit manufactures before the Olympic．
As records continue to be broken，the Internet message boards for the swimming community
have taken a darker view of suit technology．“Time is meaningless”is one quote．I tend to agree．Some of the times I see being posted today are simply legends(传奇)．
Am I against suit technology?Not really．But 2008 marked an unbelievable change in the
sport of swimming．People are saying，“Bigger，faster，stronger at any cost!”，wanting no limits on technology，either suits or drugs．I am not one of those people．
I am a guy that recognized the sport of swimming being as simple as man vs．water．It used
to be the swimmer in the suit，not the suit on the swimmer．How times have changed．
53．According to the first paragraph，it is a common belief that________.
A．only a few people have chances to take part in sports
B．the latest suit technology should not be used in sports

D．advanced suits and drugs can be used in Olympics
55．What does“Time is meaningless”mean in the swimming community?
A．Breaking records in swimming is too easy for most athelets．
B．It,s technology rather than skill that counts in some records．
C．Many athletes break records by luck and taking drugs．
D．Some rules aren,t obeyed when Olympic records are broken．
56．What,s the author,s opinion of the present sports?
A．Latest technology should be encouraged in compitition among athelets．
B．Time should be measured in a different way in modern Olympic Games．
C．All of the athletes should wear the same suits to ensure fairness．

The Olympic flame:

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

Carl Diem, chairman of the organising 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, 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.

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.

Olympic oath(宣誓)

“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 honour 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.

66. 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

67. From the passage we can learn ________.

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

68. Which of the following is TRUE?

A. There was no athlete’s oath in the 1896 Olympic Games.

B. The 1920 Olympic games was held in Amsterdam.
