The Olympic Games
1) Nobody knows exactly when the Olympic Games began, but historians
think that the first games were in 776 BC. Athletes from all over Greece came to
compete in a town called Olympia. There was only one event. It was a running
race.
2) The games were very popular. Soon there were more events, for
example, wrestling and horse racing. The games took place every four years, for
a thousand years. In AD 394 the Roman Emperor Theodosius stopped them for
religious reasons.
3) In 1887, the Frenchman Pierre de Coubertin decided he wanted to
restart the Olympic Games. It took a long time but finally the first modem
Olympic Games began in Athens in April 1896. Thirteen countries took part.
There were nearly 300 competitors in nine different sports.
4) Pierre de Coubertin also designed the Olympic rings. Each ring
represents one of the five continents and the Olympic flag contains at least one
colour from every national flag.
5) Today the Olympic Games are the world's most famous sports
competition. The modern Olympics take place every four years in a different
city. In 2004 they were again in Athens. Over 11,000 athletes from 203 countries
competed in 28 sports, 3 000 years after the first Olympic Games.

TEACHER’S PAPER
Текст для аудирования
Kevin: What's the matter, Steve — aren't you feeling very well?
Steve: No really, no. I think I need to change my lifestyle.
Kevin: What do you mean?
Steve: I mean I want to get fit and healthy.
Kevin: Oh, I see! Well, you shouldn't eat too many hamburgers or pizzas, you
know, because they aren't healthy at all.
Steve: Yes, I know, and I shouldn't eat a lot of chocolate or ice-cream either, but
I like those things a lot. It's hard to give them up.
Kevin: You should eat a lot of fruit and vegetables instead. They are much more
healthy.
Steve: Yes, that's a good idea. I'm thirsty — I want a glass of Coke.
Kevin: Ah-ah! You shouldn't drink fizzy drinks, because they have a lot of sugar.
Instead, you should drink a lot of water.
Steve: You're right, but Coke is my favourite drink. I don’t know… I can see
getting fit and healthy isn't going to be easy.
Kevin: What do you usually have for breakfast?
Steve: Oh, just a cup of coffee. Why?
Kevin: Because you should eat a big, healthy breakfast. You should have a bowl
of cereal with milk — it will give a good start for the day.
Steve: Yes, I think I'll start buying cereal.
Kevin: That's the spirit. You should take regular exercises too. You should join a
gym and then you will really be on the right track to a fit and healthy lifestyle.
You have 30 seconds to complete the task. (Pause 30 seconds.)
Now you will hear the text again. (Repeat.)
