Many years ago the idea of disabled people doing sport was never heard of. But when the yearly games for the disabled were started at Stoke Mandeville, England in 1948 by Sir Ludwig Guttmann, the situation began to change.

Sir Ludwig Guttmann, who had been driven to England in 1939 from Nazi Germany, had been asked by the British government to set up an injuries centre at Stoke Mandeville Hospital near London. His ideas about treating injuries included sport for the disabled.

In the first games just two teams of injured soldiers took part. The next year 1949, five teams took part. From those beginnings, things have developed fast. Teams now come from abroad to Stoke Mandeville every year. In 1960 the first Olympics for the disabled were held in Rome, in the same place as the normal Olympic Games. Now, every four years the Olympic Games for the disabled are held, if possible, in the same place as the normal Olympic Games, although they are organized separately. In other years Games for the disabled are still held at Stoke Mandeville. In the 1984 wheelchair Olympic Games, 1064 wheelchair athletes from about 40 countries took part. Unfortunately, they were held at Stoke Mandeville and not in Los Angeles, along with the other Olympics.

The Games have been a great success in helping the progress of international friendship and understanding, and in proving that being disabled does not mean you can’t enjoy sport. One small source of disappointment for those who organize and take part in the games, however, has been the unwillingness of the International Olympic Committee to include disabled events at the Olympic Games for the able bodied. Perhaps a few more years is still needed to persuade those fortunate enough not to be disabled that their disabled fellow athletes should be included.

Everyone knows that the Frenchmen are romantic, the Italians are fashionable and the Germans are serious.Are these just stereotypes or is there really such a thing as national character? And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail?

At least one group of people is certain that it can.A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs (企业家) in the UK found that 70% felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public.Britain is hostile (敌意的) to success, they said.It has a culture of jealousy(嫉妒).1. Jealousy is sometimes known as the “green – eyed monster” and the UK is its home.

Scientists at Warwich University in the UK recently tested this idea.They gathered a group of people together and gave each an imaginary amount of money. 2. Those given a little were given the chance to destroy the large amount of money given to others – but at the cost of losing their own.Two thirds of the people tested agreed to do this.

3. .But there is also opposite evidence.The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development recently reported that the UK is now the world’s fourth largest economy.That is not bad for people who are supposed to hate success.People in the UK also work longer hours than anyone else in Europe.So the British people are not lazy, either.

“It is not really success that the British dislike,” says Carey Cooper, a professor of management at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology.“It’s people using their success in a way that seems proud or unfair or which separates them from their roots.”

4. They set out to do things in their way.They work long hours.By their own efforts they become millionaires.5. .It hardly seems worth following their example.If they were more friendly, people would like them more.And more people want to be like them.

A.This seems to prove that the entrepreneurs were right to complain.

B.The one who owns most money in the end is the winner.

C.As a result, the survey said, entrepreneurs were “unloved, unwanted and misunderstood.”

D.It is not true that British people are born jealous of others` success.

E.Some were given a little, others a great deal.

F.But instead of being happy they complain that nobody loves them.

G.Perhaps it is the entrepreneurs who are the problem.

Researchers from the University of Newcastle are leading a world­first study which builds on earlier unpublished research that children are most likely to be guided by their father's eating and exercise habits.

The new study “Healthy Dads,Healthy Kids”,led by Associate Professor Philip Morgan from the University's Faculty of Education and Arts,is designed to help fathers promote and demonstrate to their children positive behaviors related to physical activity and healthy eating.

“The earlier findings showed that children are more likely to follow the example set by their father than their mother when it comes to eating and exercise,”said Morgan.Morgan saw striking results in a previous trial involving 165 overweight children.He found children who lost the most weight had fathers who were engaged in the new eating and exercise plan.

“We might think mothers are the main influence on children's diet and health,but the reality may be different,”said Morgan.“The roles of fathers are changing.More families have two parents working and more fathers are involved with food preparation and food shopping than in the past.”

“Fathers influence the food and physical activity habits in the home through their behaviours,attitudes and approach to food and eating,and act as a role model to their children,”said Morgan.

Researchers are inviting fathers who would like to reduce their weight to join the “Healthy Dads,Healthy Kids” program.Participation involves attending eight sessions (讲习班) at the University of Newcastle over six months where the men will receive information,have weight­related measurements recorded and complete questionnaires.

Cooking healthy food with the kids and creating a backyard fitness circuit (循环训练场) are among the assignments (课外作业) for fathers taking part in the study.
