现在他正在采访一位2008年奥林匹克运动会的志愿者李燕。

to write about④ the Olympic Games a long time ago.I've come to your time⑤ to find out about the present-day Olympic Games because I know that in 2004 they were held in my homeland.May I ask you some questions about the modern Olympics?L：Good heavens! Have you really come from so long ago? But of course you can ask any questions you like.What would you like to know？帕：我叫帕萨尼亚斯。

我生活在你们所说的“古希腊”，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？L：Every four years⑥.There are two main sets of Games—the Winter and the Summer Olympics⑦，and both are held every four years on a regular basis.The Winter Olympics are usually held two years before the Summer Games.Only athletes(运动员) who have reached the agreed standard⑧ for their event will be admitted as competitors(竞争者)．They may come from anywhere in the world.帕：你们的奥运会多久举行一次？李：每四年一次。

运动会主要有两种：冬季奥运会和夏季奥运会。

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。

只有达到他们各自项目统一标准的运动员才会被接受参加奥运会。

选手可能来自全世界任何一个地方。

the horses?L：Oh no! There are no running races or horse riding events.Instead there are competitions like skiing and ice skating which need snow and ice.That's why they're called the Winter Olympics.⑨It's in the Summer Olympics that you have the running races，together with swimming，sailing and all the team sports.⑩帕：冬季奥运会？冬天运动员怎么可能赛跑啊？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。

但是却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、划船和所有团队项目是在夏季奥运会上进行的。

you mean the Greek world? Our Greek cities used to compete against each other just for the honour of winning.No other countries could join in，nor could slaves(奴隶) or women！⑪L：Nowadays any country can take part if their athletes are good enough.There are over 250 sports and each one has its own standard.Women are not only allowed，but play a very important role in⑫ gymnastics(体操)，athletics，team sports and...帕：我明白了。
