Beijing ---Beijing is to spend up to US $20 billion to change the Chinese capital into a 21st century one for the 2008 Olympic s.
The government managed to host the 2008 games. The general aim is for Beijing to have the same environmental standards as Paris, London or Washington by 2008.
Hundreds of millions of dollars will be spent to pipe natural gas to the city’s home, taking away dirty coal burning gradually while 60,000 buses will be changed to liquefied gas. The money also will be used for relocating the polluting factories and building green belts. By 2008 around 90 percent of Beijing’s waste will be treated, compared to only 40 percent at present.
Olympic officials realize the city has a long way to go to match the environmental standards of such cities as Paris, Toronto, Istanbul and Osaka.

They include construction of Beijing’s first light railway, a 40.5 kilometers line which is expected to be completed in 2005.

4．Discussion
You know our government has tried its best to compete for hosting the 29th Olympic games. It has cost a lot of money. Do you think it is worthwhile? Why?
For your reference:
It is worthwhile to host the Olympic games. To host Olympic Games can make our culture and people understood by the other peoples. To host Olympic Games can make our country known to the whole world. To host Olympic Games can stimulate our economy, and help to speed up its development.
5. Imagination
Imagine what we will do and what we can do for the 29th Olympic Games.
For your reference:
Maybe we can serve as volunteers to help the foreign visitors and athletes from all over the world. So at present we should study hard. Especially we should try our best to learn English well.
6. Summary
As we have finished the passage we’ll sum up what we have learned. First let’s see the writing skills. It is written in a conversational st yle. It’s i n a very interesting way. It adopts a dialogue between Pausanias who lived 2000 years ago and a Chinese gird in modern world. Through their dialogue, the differences and similarities between the ancient and modern Olympic Games are made known to the readers. Just because it is in a conversational style, there are quite a few oral spoken English and elliptical phrases.
Through the comparison between the ancient and modern Olympic Games, we have learned the differences and the similarities between them. Now we can have a deep understanding of the Games. From the passage, we can have a deep understanding of the Games. From the passage, we can also get to know that the Olympic Games are developing and improving.

8. Retelling
Purpose: Train students’ ability o f summarizing and expressing.
We can see the text is written in a conversational style. And there are two speakers. One is Pausanias, a Greek writer 2000 years ago, the other is Li Li, a Chinese girl. Now let’s change it into a narrative style. In other words, let’s describe the ancient and modern Olympic Games in our own words. Who would like to have a try?
For your reference:
The ancient Olympic Games began in Greece and were held from 776 BC to AD393. It was held every four years. At that time, there were not so many sports as today. And women were not allowed to take part in the games. There were not Winter Olympics at that time. Winners got the olive wreath as the prize. The motto was swifter, higher and stronger.
The modern Olympic Games began in 1891. They’re held every four years. There are many new sports in the Olympics. In the summer Olympics there are over 250 different sports. Women are n ot only allowed to join in but also play a very important role. Now the competitors compete for medals. The motto is swifter, higher and stronger.
Winners got the olive wreath as the prize. The motto was swifter, higher and stronger.

started in the ancient Olympic stadium
in Olympia, Elis, Greece, using a parabolic mirror to focus the rays of the Sun. This flame begins its Olympic Torch Relay by touring Greece. The flame is normally taken to the country where the games will be held (usually by airplane). The flame is then carried around theListening task (P51)country where the games are to be held, using a series of torches carried by people running, walking, riding horses and camels, scuba diving, and using other means of human conveyance. The last runner uses a torch to light the large Olympic torch which burns throughout the games. The flame is extinguished during the closing ceremony. A new Olympic torch is designed for each of the games. Ex 2:
Number the events and discuss them in pairs.
Answers:
5 – 7 – 2 – 1 – 6 – 3 – 8 - 4Listen to the tape again and discuss the questions with your partner.
1.Why does the torch begin its journey
in Greece?
Ancient Greece was the birthplace of
the Olympic Games so it is
appropriate to light the flame there.2. Why are there Special Olympic
Games?
The modern Olympic Games considers everyone should have their chance to take part in the Games. If you are mentally or physically disabled, it would obviously be unfair for you to take part against other able-bodied competitors. So the Olympic movement has devised two sets of extra Game: the Special Games (for mentally less able) and Paralympics (for physically handicapped competitors). Finish the exercises on the workbook.

A sample
Swimming is my favorite sport. I like it because it can bring me much fun. The process of learning how to swim is very interesting. You can try different ways of swimming, such as backstroke. You can swim at any time of the year if you like. In hot summer, if you jump into the river or the sea to have a swim, you will feel cool and comfortable. Even in cold winter, you can swim if you are brave enough. It’s a healthy sport and it can build up our body. If you are a beginner, you must be careful. You’d better not swim alone and bring life buoy with you in case of danger. If you want to be a good swimmer, you must have a lot of practice and have great determination.
