The modern Olympic era began in 1894 when Frenchman Baron Pierre de Coubertin decided to revive the ancient Greek tradition of celebrating health, youth and peace with a sports festival. Baron de Coubertin created the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and the first modern Olympiad took place in Athens. Since then the Olympic Games have been held every four years with only two exceptions because of the two world wars. Even though the modern Olympic Games embrace the whole world, the connection with Greece is still very strong. A lighted torch is brought all the way from Greece, carried by a relay of runners, in order to light the Olympic Flame which burns all through the Games. As in ancient Greek times, the competitors still take the Olympic Oath. The long-distance race is still called the Marathon. Marathon was a village about 26 miles from Athens. In the year 490 BC the Greeks defeated a powerful Persian army at that spot. After the fierce day's fighting a soldier volunteered to bring news of the victory to the anxious citizens of Athens. He ran all the way and after gasping out the message. "Rejoice, we conquer!" he collapsed and died. One important rule of the Olympic Games is that the competitors must be amateurs. This rule has been under a lot of pressure in recent years because modern sport is so professional and competitive. Athletes train for years to take part in the Olympics and some countries spend much more than others on equipment and facilities. But despite these pressures, the amateur rule remains. In modern times the Olympic movement has become an enormous and expensive organization. It is controlled by the International Olympic Committee, which consists of members from all the participating countries. The IOC is based in Lausanne, Switzerland. It chooses the locations of both summer and winter games (both take place once every four years, with winter games half a year before summer Olympiads). It also controls the rules of the competitions and selects new Olympic sports.
Сначала текст без ошибок и со знаками препинания:
I paid for some doughnuts the cafe was famous for and sat down at the table. I was looking through the window and thinking about a recent argument with Carol. She was really angry with me, saying that I was the worst person to be out with as I always bullied somebody, got into fights, and always managed to hurt someone’s feelings or worse. “She’s right,” I said to myself, “I don’t care much about others. But I do care for Carol and I don’t want to hurt her feelings. That’s why I’ll try to be nice, polite, and tolerant of people. Carol says a lot of these clever words as she is going to be a journalist. She has got a lot of ideas on human rights, tolerance and equality peace making and preventing conflicts. If she ever manages to put all her ideas into action the world would be better I bet.”
Перевод:
Я заплатил за пончики, которыми славилось кафе, и сел за стол. Я смотрел в окно и думал о недавней ссоре с Кэрол. Она очень рассердилась на меня, сказав, что я был худшим человеком, с которым можно было встречаться, так как я всегда издевался над кем-нибудь, влезал в драки, и всегда умудрялся ранить чьи-то чувства или того хуже. «Она права, - сказал я себе, - меня не волнуют другие. Но меня волнует Кэрол и я не хочу ранить ее чувства. Вот почему я постараюсь быть милым, вежливым и терпимым к людям. Кэрол произносит много этих умных слов, так как она собирается стать журналистом. У нее есть много идей в отношении прав человека, толерантности, миротворчества и предотвращения конфликтов. Если ей когда-нибудь удастся претворить все ее идеи в жизнь, готов поспорить, мир станет лучше.»
