We can see walls everywhere in the world. But the Great Wall of China is the
biggest of all. The Chinese call it "The Ten-thousand-Li Great Wall". It is in fact
more than 6,000 kilometres long. It is 4-5 metres wide. In most places, five horses or
ten men can walk side by side.
When you visit the Great Wall, you can't help wondering how the Chinese
people were able to build such a great wall thousands of years ago. Without any modern machine, it was really very difficult to build it. They had to do all the work by hand. It took millions of men hundreds of years to build it.

In 776 B.C. the first Olympic Games were held at the foot of Mount Olympus to honor Greeks' chief god, Zeus(向希腊主要神祗宙斯献礼). The Greeks praised (注重)physical fitness and strength in their education of youth. Therefore, running, boxing, horse-racing, discus throwing and so on were held in each city and the winners competed every four years at Mount Olympus. Winners were greatly honored by having olive wreaths(橄榄枝花环)placed on their heads and having poems sung about their deeds. Originally(起初)these were held as games of friendship, and any wars that were going on were stopped to allow the games .
    The Greeks regarded these games as so important that they counted time in four-year cycles called "Olympiads" dating from 776 B.C.
