高中英语Unit2 The Olympic Games文章 奥运会的起源与发展人教版必修二 教案
奥运会的起源与发展古希腊是一个神话王国，优美动人的神话故事和曲折离奇的民间传说，为古奥运会的起源蒙上一层神秘的色彩。
传说：古代奥林匹克运动会是为祭祀宙斯而定期举行的体育竞技活动。
另一种传说与宙斯的儿子赫拉克勒斯有关。
赫拉克勒斯因力大无比获"大力神"的美称。
他在伊利斯城邦完成了常人无法完成的任务，不到半天功夫便扫干净了国王堆满牛粪的牛棚，但国王不想履行赠送300头牛的许诺，赫拉克勒一气之下赶走了国王。
为了庆祝胜利，他在奥林匹克举行了运动会。
关于古奥运会起源流传最广的是佩洛普斯娶亲的故事。
古希腊伊利斯国王为了给自己的女儿挑选一个文武双全的驸马，提出应选者必须和自己比赛战车。
比赛中，先后有13个青年丧生于国王的长矛之下，而第14个青年正是宙斯的孙子和公主的心上人佩洛普斯。
在爱情的鼓舞下，他勇敢地接受了国王的挑战，终于以智取胜。
为了庆贺这一胜利，佩洛普斯与公主在奥林匹亚的宙斯庙前举行盛大的婚礼，会上安排了战车、角斗等项比赛，这就是最初的古奥运会，佩洛普斯成了古奥运会传说中的创始人。
奥运会的起源，实际上与古希腊的社会情况有着密切的关系。
公元前9-8世纪，希腊氏族社会逐步瓦解，城邦制的奴隶社会逐渐形成，建立了200多个城邦。
城邦各自为政，无统一君主，城邦之间战争不断。
为了应付战争，各城邦都积极训练士兵。
斯巴达城邦儿童从7岁起就由国家抚养，并从事体育、军事训练，过着军事生活。
战争需要士兵，士兵需要强壮身体，而体育是培养能征善战士兵的有力手段。
战争促进了希腊体育运动的开展，古奥运会的比赛项目也带有明显的军事烙印。
连续不断的战事使人民感到厌恶，普遍渴望能有一个赖以休养生息的和平环境。
后来斯巴达王和伊利斯王签订了"神圣休战月"条约。
于是，为准备兵源的军事训练和体育竞技，逐渐变为和平与友谊的运动会。
古代奥运会的盛衰古奥运会从公元前776年起，到公元394年止，经历了1168年，共举行了293届。

新课标英语高中必修2Unit 2 The Olympic Games 课文翻译section A采访帕萨尼亚斯是2000年前的一位希腊作家，他在2007年3月18日作了一次魔幻旅行，来打听当代奥林匹克运动会的情况。
现在他正在采访一位2008年奥林匹克运动会的志愿者李燕。
帕：我叫帕萨尼亚斯。
我生活在你们所说的“古希腊”，并且我曾经写过很久以前奥林匹克运动会的情况。
现在我来到你们这个时代，想了解有关当代奥运会的情况，因为我知道2004年奥运会是在我的祖国举行的。
我可以问你一些有关现代奥林匹克运动会的问题吗?李：天哪！你真的来自那么久远的年代？当然，你可以问你想问的问题。
你想知道什么呢？帕：你们的奥运会多久举办一次？李：每四年一次。
运动会主要有两种——夏季奥运会和冬季奥运会。
这两种运动会都是每四年举行一次。
冬季奥运会总是在夏季奥运会的前两年举行。
只有达到它们各自项目统一标准的运动员才会被接受参加奥运会。
选手可以来自世界任何一个地方。
帕：冬季奥运会？冬天，运动员怎么享受比赛啊？又怎么可能赛马呢？李：噢，不！冬奥会并不包括跑步和骑马比赛。
但有像滑冰和滑雪这类需要冰雪的比赛项目，所以才叫它冬季奥运会。
跑步、游泳、划船和一些团体项目是在夏季运动会上进行。
帕：我明白了。
之前你说邀请来的运动员来自世界各地，你指的是希腊世界？我们希腊各个城市之间曾经为了赢得荣誉而彼此竞争。
别的国家不能参加，奴隶和妇女也不能参加！李：现在只要他们的运动员足够优秀，任何国家都能参赛。
总共有250多个运动项目，每个项目都有其自己的标准。
妇女不仅允许参加比赛，而且她们还在体操、竞技和团体赛等项目中起着非常重要的作用…‥帕：请等一下！所有那些项目，所有那些国家，甚至妇女也都参加！所有这些参赛的人住在哪里呢？李：每届奥运会有一个特殊的村庄（奥运村）供参赛的人住，一个主要的接待大楼，好几个供比赛用的体育场，还有一个室内体育馆。
帕：那听起来要花很多钱吧。

高中英语人教版必修二教师用书 Unit 2 The Olympic Games
Unit 2The Olympic Games【美文阅读】随着时间的推移和奥林匹克运动的发展变化，对奥林匹克标志的阐释也出现了变化。
奥林匹克旗和五环的含义，不仅象征五大洲的团结，而且强调所有参赛运动员应以公正、坦诚的运动员精神在比赛场上相见！The Olympic FlagOn the Olympic flag，the rings appear on a white background(背景)．Pierre de Coubertin，the father of the modern Olympic Games，explains the meaning of the flag：“The Olympic flag has a white background，with five interlaced(交织的；交错的)rings in the centre：blue，yellow，black，green and red.This design is symbolic(象征的；象征性的)；it represents(代表；象征) the five continents of the world，united by Olympism，while the six colors are those that appear on all the national flags of the world at the present time.”Combined in this way，the six colors of the flag，(including the white of the background)represent all nations.It is wrong，therefore，to believe that each of the colors corresponds(与……相符) to a certain continent!At the Olympic Games，the flag is brought into the stadium during the opening ceremony (开幕式)．After its arrival，the flag is lifted up the flagpole.It must fly in the stadium during the whole of the Games.When the flag is lowered at the closing ceremony，it means the end of the Games.The mayor of the host city of the Games passes the Olympic flag to the mayor of the next host city of the Games.Even though Pierre de Coubertin intended(想要) the Olympic Games to be an international event from 1896 in Athens(Greece)，it was only at the 1912 Games in Stockholm(Sweden)that，for the first time，the participants(参加者)came from all five continents.One year later，in 1913，the five rings appeared at the top of a letter writtenby Pierre de Coubertin.He drew the rings and colored them by hand.He then described this symbol in the Olympic Review of August 1913.It was also Coubertin who had the idea for the Olympic flag.He presented the rings and flag in June 1914 in Paris at the Olympic Congress.The First World War prevented the Games from being celebrated in 1916 in Berlin (Germany) as planned.It was not until 1920 in Antwerp (Belgium) that the flag and its five rings could be seen flying in an Olympic stadium.【诱思导学】1．Do you think why many countries want to host the Olympic Games，while others not?2．What contribution did Pierre de Coubertin make?【答案】 1.Reasons to host：a great honour；great responsibility and so on.Reasons not to host：too expensive；much planning；many stadiums and accommodation. 2.He made the Olympic Games an international event.Period ⅠPreviewing(教师用书独具)●教学目标本课时主要是通过学生对学案所给出的内容的学习，了解本课文中所出现的词汇，初步了解课文以及相关的背景知识，对下一堂课对课文的全面理解起到一个铺垫作用。
