Greek Olympic Games
The temple of Hera in Olympia, Elis, Greece
Once every four years, men from all over Greece came to compete in a great
athletic festival in Elis, in western Greece (Women were not allowed to compete). This
was called the Olympic games because the place was called Olympia. It was a religious
festival to honor the Greek gods Zeus and Hera. We don't know when men first began
celebrating the Olympic Games, but they were certainly already doing it in the time of
Homer, by 776 BC. And they were celebrated from then on, every four years without
fail, until people converted to Christianity and the Roman Emperor Theodosius banned
the games in 393 AD. That's more than a thousand years! The games were so regular
that people used them to date by. They would say, I was born in the second year of the
twenty-fourth Olympiad (starting from 776 BC). Can you figure out what year that
would be in our reckoning?
When it was time for the games, the rulers of Elis sent out messengers all over
Greece and to the Greek colonies around the Black Sea and the Mediterranean. They declared a truce throughout the Greek world for a month. No matter who you had a war
with, you had to stop the war and let their athletes and performers go through your
city-state safely to get to the Olympic Games. Each city-state paid for a few athletes
from their city to travel to Elis. But if you had ever been a slave, or if you had ever done
anything against the gods, then you couldn't be in the Olympics. And, the men had to
swear that they had already trained for at least ten months. This meant that only men
who were pretty rich could be in the Games, so they could afford to take so long off
work, and also pay a trainer.

IN SEARCH OF THE AMBER ROOM
寻找琥珀屋
Frederick William I, the King of Prussia, could never have imagined that his greatest
gift to the Russian people would have such an amazing history. This gift was the
Amber Room, which was given this name because several tons of amber were used
to make it. The amber which was selected had a beautiful yellow-brown colour like
honey. The design of the room was in the fancy style popular in those days. It was
also a treasure decorated with gold and jewels, which took the country's best artists
about ten years to make.
普鲁士国王腓特烈·威廉一世绝不可能想到他送给俄罗斯人民的厚礼会有一段令人惊讶的历史。
这件礼物就是琥珀屋,它之所以有这个名字,是因为造这间房子用了近几吨琥珀,被选择的琥珀色彩艳丽,呈黄褐色,像蜜一样。屋子的设计当时流行的极富艺术表现力的建筑风格。琥珀屋这件珍品还镶嵌著黄金和珠宝,全国最优秀的艺术家用了是年的时间才完成它。
In fact, the room was not made to be a gift. It was designed for the palace of
