3、 of about six billion inhabitants (居民),only a selected group of about ten thousand athletes gets to the Olympic Games. However, there is a ritual of the Games that allows thousands of common people to participate in the Olympic experience, which is unique in the world: the tracking of the Olympic to
4、rch. The flame lit in Olympia is a powerful symbol, the force of which can be felt all over the world.The Olympic torch-past and presentThis tradition is not as old as the Games. The tracking of the torch was never part of the Games in Ancient Greece, yet it was part of Greek culture. The old way to
5、 carry the Olympic torch through runs was in honor of several gods. They were carried from one temple to the other or to some particular city. The first to get to the place had the honor to light the flame of the gods with his own torch.The torch is currently completely integrated with the Olympic M
6、ovement and is an instrument that should reflect not only the soul of the country organizing the Games, but also the technology available at that moment. For the Athens Olympic Games of 1004, the designer Andreas Varotsos selected the olive (橄榄)leaf. He wanted to include all aspects of his country,
7、both in the historical and cultural levels, at the same time making use of an international language that reflected the spirit of Greece and showed values of peace, love and harmony in all places.The tracking of the torch-the first half in the 20th CenturyThe fire was not employed as an Olympic symb
8、ol until 1928 when a flame was lit during the Amsterdam Olympics. That caught the imagination of the public. Four years later, in Los Angeles, Carl Diem, from the German Olympic Committee, decided to develop the idea. The flame was lit once again. But those were not real Olympic flames. When the Gam
9、es were held in Berlin, in 1936, Diem introduced the first tracking of the Olympic torch.Torch tracking in the 1960s and 1970sFor the Games of 1968, in Mexico, the torch was carried to Spain, from where it would cross the Atlantic and follow the route of Christopher Columbus up to Central America.

10、n Mexico Qty, Enriqueta Basilio was the first woman to light the Olympic flame.In 1972, 36 years after the Berlin Olympics, the torch was once again carried to Germany, and 1976 saw the change of the torch to show the growth of technology during the 20th century.

11、onized particles (离子粒)of the flame and transformed it to electronic impulses (脉冲).They were then passed by a satellite across the Atlantic to Ottawa, Canada, where they sent to relight the flame.

12、e conventional manner.I n the 1980sIn 1980, for the Moscow Olympics, the Olympic flame was taken to the Soviet Union for the first time. However, the tracking of the torch in Los Angeles was the most complicated and also the most troublesome. The influence of the money in the sports was growing. In
13、1984, this led to many quarrels in the Olympic Movement. The Americans developed a program in which each kilometer was sold and the money was given to sport organizations for the youth. This model allowed private sponsors to buy several kilometers, yet it was not well accepted in Greece, and there w
14、ere many protests against the sale of the Olympic flame.The memories of the Berlin Olympics, in 1936, were remembered in the Seoul Olympics in 1988.

16、, this would be the largest mistake of all time. But he did it right. In 1996, the torch was carried to all cities that had held the Games before. More than 10,000 runners took the torch from Olympia to Atlanta. Runners carrying the torch were community heroes chosen for this special honor. Any pers

I also clearly recall seeing a homeless personpicking through a trash can for the first time ever. The pover
34、ty of the area around my school made me see how truly lucky I was. I now began to appreciate everything which had been handed to me in life.

36、 of living can be experienced. This alone expands ones views of life in general. The religious aspect of my life grew, I was easily able to get involved in community service projects, and I became much more aware of the dangers which exist in the city. Going to school in the city helped me to overco

Te
41、aching children to read is not passing reading on to them. It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible.Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They
42、differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read.Teaching is also a public activity: it can be seen and observed.Learning to read involves all
43、that each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an ocxupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public examination.If teacher and learner roles are distinguishable, how can teaching aid the child in the quest for knowl
