The ancient Olympic Games were primarily a part of a religiousfestival in honor of Zeus, the father of the Greek gods and goddesses.The festival and the games were held in Olympia, a countrysidesanctuary (避难所) site in the western Peloponnesos.

The Greeks that came to the Sanctuary of Zeus at Olympia sharedthe same religious beliefs and spoke the same language. The athleteswere all male citizens of the city-states from every comer of the Greekworld, coming from as far away as Iberia (Spain) in the west and theBlack Sea (Turkey) in the east.

The sanctuary was named after Mt. Olympos, the highest mountainin mainland Greece. It was said that Mt. Olympos was the home of thegreatest of the Greek gods and goddesses.

The ancient Olympic Games began in the year 776 BC, whenKoroibos, a cook from the nearby city of Ells, won the stadium race, afoot race 600 feet long. The stadium track at Olympia is shown here.According to some literary traditions, this was the only athletic event of thegames for the first I3 Olympic festivals or until 724 BC. From 776 BC,the Games were held in Olympia every four years for almost 12 centuries.

But some contrary evidence suggests that the games may haveexisted at Olympia much earlier than this date, perhaps as early as the10th or 9th century BC.

[答案与解析]

1、B。根据第二段中的句子The athletes were all male citizens ofthe city-states... 可知B项正确。

2、B。根据文章首句The ancient Olympic Games were primarily apart of a religious festival in honor of Zeus可知B项正确。A项中文章只提到spoke the same language，并没有说希腊人说的一定是英语；C项中European continent应该成Greek world才正确；而D项中的many应当是the only。

3、C。根据句子The sanctuary was named after Mr. Olympos, thehighest mountain in mainland Greece可知，最高的山是Mr. Olympos，而非sanctuary。所以答案选C。

[答案与解析]

1、B。A项错误，因为在北京奥运会期间要保证公共健康和安全的是政府，而不是卫生部部长。B项在第i段的句首便可以找到，所以答案选B。

2、A。eliminate前面有两个动词prevent和reduce。prevent是“预防”的意思，reduce则是“减少”的意思。按照逻辑发展的顺序，eliminate应是“消除”的意思，与选项A意思相符。

3、C。根据Great efforts will be made in preventing rabies，birdnu，SARS and group poisonings可知选项C正确。注意，选项A不对，是因为文章讲的并不是其他全部城市，而是co-host cities and itsneighboring provinces，即共同举办奥运会的城市和邻省城市；选项D不对，是因为其中的million与文章中的billion不一致。
