Archery (射箭) may be the oldest sport in the world. There are pre – historic drawings which show that bows and arrows were used 20 000 years ago. In early times, animals were always hunted and killed with bows and arrows. Good archers were very important when country fought against country. One of the most famous legends (传奇，传奇故事) in European history is the story of William Tell. He was a Swiss who refused to work for an Austrian, and was ordered to shoot and apple on the head of his son. He hit the apple, and then shot the Austrian. Switzerland has been free since then, so the story goes.
Archers shoot at targets at 30, 50, 70 or 90 meters’ distance from them. The targets are round 80 centimeters across, and have 5 circles painted round the center. Bows are made of steel, wood and strong plastic, and arrows of wood. The sport is enjoyed in the open sir in summer and in a building in winter. Archery is good for the chest, the arms and the back. Men and women can shoot together since being strong is not so important. Women usually use lighter bows. People who can’t walk or who have been ill can also enjoy it. For Zen Buddhists (佛教徒) archery is not only a sport but also something deeper. It helps the individuals to understand themselves and the meaning of life.

The Nadam Festival, usually held from June 4 to 9(lunar calendar), is one of the most exciting and colorful festivals in the Inner Mongolian Autonomous Region. At the center of the festivities are the fierce horse racing, archery(射箭) and wrestling competitions, the traditional sports of the Mongolian warriors (the three “manly” sports, though young girls and women participate in the horse racing and archery contests).
In Mongolian, the word “Nadam” means “amusement and entertainment” and the festival began in 1225 AD, when Genghis Khan organized an expedition to the west and got control of Khwarezm. In order to celebrate the victory they held the magnificent Nadam Fari. The Mongolians used this exciting gathering as a big occasion to compete in the horse racing, Mongolian wrestling and archery, which were regarded as the three basic skills of men.
Gradually more and more events were added to the festival, such as marksmanship(射击), chess, reciting epics, polo(马球), film, drama, singing, dancing, track and field competitions and so on.
There are three kinds of Nadam, the big one, the medium one and the small one. The big Nadam requires the participation of 512 wrestlers and 300 horses and usually lasts 7-10 days while the medium Nadam will have the participation of 256 wrestlers and 100-150 horses, lasting 5-7 days. And 64 or 128 wrestlers and 30 or 50 horses will take part in the small Nadam, which lasts 3-5 days. Anyone can apply to compete in Nadam, regardless of his or her ethnic origin and religious belief.
Nadam has become a popular artistic and sports event participated in by people of all ages. Boys and girls can also take the opportunity to show their love, i. e. the so-called “meeting at aobao”.
In addition to sports competition, people also make good use of this gathering to hold talks and establish relations in economic trade or to interchange goods.

As soon as the first arrow flew off, a second one was wound up. The moment the second one was winged, a third was ready, and all of them lodged in the same place. During all this time, his 3 was as still as a statue. After his performance, Lie Zi asked Bo Hun Wu Ren: "What do you think of my archery skill?" Bo Hun Wu Ren laughed: "This is still only a(an) 4 shot, not quite the perfect shot yet. Let's climb up the mountain and stand on the 5 overhanging the abyss(深渊). We'll see if you can 6 an arrow." Wu Ren then led Lie Zi up to a place eight hundred feet above a deep valley. Wu Ren turned his 7 to the edge of the cliff, 8 moving his feet until he was standing with his heels extending over the edge, and 9 Lie Zi to join him. Lie Zi was so 10 that he threw himself down on the ground, sweating from head to toe. Bo Hun Wu Ren raised the bow and shot the arrows from his bow, with no 11 missed. Then he looked at Lie Zi and said 12 . " The best archer can look up at the blue 13 , down at the nether (地下的) world and to the eight poles of the earth but still keep 14 .
