Listening material
Ms. Liu: Yesterday I asked you to do some research on the history of the Olympics. Did anyone find out when the Olympics began
Wang Mei: Yes, I searched it on the Internet. The year was 776 BC. That was about 2 800 years ago.
Ms. Liu: Excellent! Did anyone find out where the ancient Olympics began
Li Ming: I know that! They started in Greece.
Text
Ms. Liu: That’s right. The ancient Greeks wanted to have the best athletes compete against each other. They held the event every four years in Olympia.
Wang Mei: But those first Olympics were very different from today’s. Women couldn’t take part in the games.
Ms. Liu: Good point, Wang Mei. Married women couldn’t even watch the games!
Text
Li Ming: Now both men and women can take part in the Olympics! I also found out that the modern Olympics began in 1896 and took place every four years. In 2008, China hosted the 29th Olympic Games. It was so exciting!
Wang Mei: The ancient Greeks would be amazed at how the Olympic Games have grown to become a world event!
Text
Ms. Liu: One thing has not changed about the games — athletes compete in a spirit of fair play. They also represent their countries at the highest level.

1. Did anyone find out when the Olympics began
(1) find out意为“找出；查清楚” 。多指通过调查、询问、研究之后搞清楚、弄明白，通常含有经过困难、曲折的经历最终找到或弄清楚较难找到的、抽象的东西的含义。
e.g. Can you find out when the flight will take off
你能查出这次航班何时起飞吗？
Language points
find意为“找到，发现” 。 强调“找”的结果，其宾语往往是某件丢失的东西或某个人。
e.g. I can’t find my pen. Can I borrow yours
我找不到我的钢笔了。我能借一下你的吗？
look for意为“寻找”。指有目的地寻找，强调“找”这个动作，结果如何不清楚。
e.g. The young couple are looking for their lost
baby everywhere.
这对年轻的夫妇正在到处寻找他们丢失的孩子。

2. The ancient Greeks wanted to have the best athletes compete against each other.
