The Olympic Games have changed a lot since they were first held in Athens, Greece, in 1896. At that time, winners got silver medals instead of gold ones. Sounds strange, doesn’t it? People thought silver was better than gold.No women competed in the first Olympics, and only 14 countries took part.

   In the early years of the Olympics, there weren’t many sports. In the first Greek Games, event usually took place in the Panathenaic Stadium(雅典体育场),and you can still see it today. Players did not wear their countries’ clothes in 1896.They traveled to Athens by themselves and had to use their own money to take part.

New sports have been put into the Olympics over time, like badminton and table tennis, Some older games are no longer played, like tug-of-war(拔河).

   Swimming was different in 1896. There was a 1200-metre race in the sea.A boat took swimmers out into the sea and they had to swim back to land.The first person to win that race was Alfred Hajos. He seemed happy just to finish. “I just wanted to live. That’s more important than winning,” he said.

  When she turned ten, my daughter decided I was no longer good enough to provide input on anything useful.Then, in high school she took a parenting class.

  “Mum, I need your idea,” she told me.“What are the skills you need to be a good parent?” she asked, pencil pointed over her homework.

  Skills? I’d always thought of parenting as requiring patience, understanding and kindness.And I was pretty sure those were characteristics(性格), not skills.

  “Hang on, I know this one,” I told her, thinking fast.Looking at the wall calendar(日历), I noted that my next seven days included two appointments(约会), 20 minutes each, three forms to hand in at two different schools and a cover for the pool to pick up.“Organizational(组织的)skills,” I answered.“It also helps if you can drive-and have the ability to be in two places at once.”

  “Got it,” she said.“What else?”

  I thought about the school year:school fees(学费), class pictures, running shoes.Not to mention weekly shopping-the bill for which was growing as fast as the kids.

  “Financial(理财的)skills,”I said.“You’ll have to plan your money-especially if you end up with two birthdays in one pay period.You must be good at math, too.”

  “Money and math make sense,”she said.“Anything more?”

  “You also need a good memory,”I continued.“At any given time, you may remember birthdays, names of people and who likes apples or who can’t stand grape juice.”

  I talked and talked.My daughter’s pencil moved quickly as she tried to keep up with what I was saying.Her homework finally finished.My daughter told me about a new parenting-skill project(项目).“We’re getting dolls programmed to cry from time to time.We have to keep them with us all the time and take care of them.It’s to show us how hard it is to be a parent.”

  I thought if students would come up with a doll that throws things around and shouts at the top of its voice, that might give them an idea of the patience, understanding and kindness that parenting requires.

She was a poor girl who worked to get money to pay for her lessons. She became the famous woman scientist of her time. That's the story of Marie Curie's life. She didn't mind working and she didn't care about the honors(荣誉)that were given to her in later years.
Marie was born in 1867. Her name was Marie Sklosovska then. She lived in Poland. Her father was a teacher. Everyone soon saw that Marie had a quick mind.
Marie's mother died when her youngest daughter was only ten. From then on, Marie knew that she would have to work hard at her lessons if she wanted to be successful(成功的)in her life. She studied very hard and was one of the best students at her school.
Marie and her older sister, Bronya, wanted to study in France at the Sorbonne. But their father didn't have enough money to send them there. It was Marie who had an idea: she would teach at home and send her money to Bronya. After her sister finished studying in Paris, she would get work and send Marie the money to study there herself. So Marie worked very hard for six years to pay for her sister's studies. At last it was Marie's turn but when she got to France, her sister was married and could not give her much help.
Again Marie worked. She studied in a small room without heat or light. She lived on bread and tea most of the time. But all she thought of was her maths and science. This was her world.
After four years' hard work, Marie and her husband found something which was called radium(镭). They were given the Nobel Prize(诺贝尔奖)for their great discovery(发现). But they were too ill to go Stockholm themselves to receive it.
Marie always said that it was because of her children that she want her work. And she discovered a hidden power and gave it to the world. It was the same power, however, that killed Marie in 1934.
