Here is some “breaking” news: the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has added breaking(霹雳舞) to the 2024 Paris Olympic Games!
Breaking might be one of the very unusual sports to be added to the Games, as it's often seen as more of an art form than a sport.
The dance style first appeared on the streets of New York in the 1970s.Performers dance to hip hop music while using different movements.In the 1980s, breaking swept around the world when it was adopted by pop stars such as Michael Jackson.Jackson's moonwalk became popular among teenagers worldwide.
Why did the IOC choose breaking Over the past few years, the Olympics has become less interesting to young people.The IOC is trying to make the Games more “youthful”, with sports that young people actually do in their spare time.“We want to take sports to the youth,” said IOC President.
To be added to the Olympics, a sport must be widely practised by men in at least 75 countries and by women in no fewer than 40 countries.Breaking certainly meets this standard(标准), according to The Sydney Morning Herald.It is also competitive and requires strict training just like other sports.Dancers need to have the strong upper body and core(核心) strength.
“I train at least 10 hours a week, and I've been training since I was a young kid,” top Australian break dancer Lowe said.
“It's great that it gives us more recognition as a sport,” said British break dancer Karam.“Now, the efforts of break dancers are gradually accepted and even admired by a growing number of people.And for the Olympics, it will attract young people who may not follow some of the traditional sports.”

What is your first impression of bamboo in China Is it only a kind of plant on the food list of pandas No! It also represents single bamboo drifting(独竹漂), an intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产) passed from generation to generation among the people in Guizhou Province.
Single bamboo drifting has been performed for more than 2,000 years.In the past, the ancestors who lived on the bank of the Chishui River used it as a method to go across the river.Now, with the development of modern transportation, this skill has been regarded as a sport or a unique way of performance by local people.
Middle school students of the province practise the sport and compete in the Chinese National Games.The requirements of the sport are simple, yet demanding! Athletes have to balance on a bamboo pole, barely as wide as one's foot, and guide it down the river with a thin stick.But there's more than just guiding.While keeping balance on the narrow bamboo pole with the thin stick, the athletes are performing skills and tricks.Jumping, push ups, and splits(劈叉) are some of the most common ones, whereas those who are more experienced often use their imagination to try out more difficult moves.
Yang Liu, a 25 year old “water fairy” from Zunyi, Guizhou, dancing on the river in traditional Chinese costume, is an inheritor(继承人) of single bamboo drifting.For over ten years, combining drifting with dancing, Yang has put fresh energy into this traditional art.It's not easy to stand, let alone dance on a single bamboo.So not surprisingly, Yang has experienced countless falls and failures.Thanks to her efforts, though, single bamboo drifting has gotten great fame on the internet and become well known in the world.
