(2022·浙江宁波·八年级期末)①The 24th Winter Olympic Games were just hosted in Beijing, but the city
was no stranger to competitive (竞技性的) sports on snow and ice.
②Actually competitive winter sports were already popular in China a thousand years ago in the form of bingxi
(playing on ice). Bingxi began in the Song Dynasty and became really popular during the Qing Dynasty. Emperor
Qianlong hosted bingxi nearly every year. He had the first one in 1742, almost two hundred years before the first
Winter Olympic Games.
③Events of bingxi were recorded by many ancient palace painters. A bingxi painting just shows scenes of
bingxi during the Qing Dynasty.
④In bingxi, three types of ice skating are performed. The first one is the speed race which is similar to modern
speed skating. Participants (参赛者) skated to the emperor’s ice bed, from two to three kilometers away. In the
painting, the emperor is seated inside his ice bed. Whoever reaches the emperor first wins first prize. The second is
figure skating. Jumps, spins (旋转) and pair work moves in modern figure skating can all be found in the painting.
The third is soccer on ice. Participants in two teams skate, kick and try to score goals. If the “tool” for scoring
goals is changed from legs to sticks, it is similar to today’s ice hockey (冰球).

different countries meet and play football and other sports in deep mud. As you can see, the players get very dirty!
