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 (奥运火炬接力) 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 thecountry 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. friendship luminosity justice

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 Games: the Special Games (for mentally less able) and Paralympics (for physically handicapped competitors).课件10张PPT。Unit 2Three Inspiring Stories
