The festival and games were held in Olympia, a religious sanctuary. The athletes came to Olympia from all parts of the Greek world, from as far as Spain in the west and Turkey in the east. The ancient Olympic Games began in the year 776 BC when Koroibos, a cook from the city of Elis, won a 200-metre-long race. They took place for a period of 617 years until the last games were held in AD 393.In the ancient games, athletes received prizes worth large amounts of money.

The city was founded by the Romans and since then new arrivals have constantly added to its character and prosperity.Within 10 years 40% of Londoners will be from ethnic minority groups, including the growing number of Londoners of mixed ethnic origin, but most of them will have been born in Britain.Children of Caribbean-Chinese marriages will go to school with children of Russian-Irish couples. None of them will be English but all of them will be Londoners.Most of Britains ethnic minority residents live in the capital, speaking over 300 languages.Nearly all of the African population and many of the Caribbean population of Britain live in London (83% and 58% respectively); 39% of the Chinese population of Britain and 36% of the Asian population of Britain live in London.The largest migrant community is from the Irish Republic with 256, 000 people, 3.8% of the total population of London.There are an estimated 330, 000 refugees and asylum seekers living in London, with most recent arrivals coming from Eastern Europe , North Africa and Kurdistan.Young people, in particular, are skilled at dealing with a large number of different and hybrid cultures.They themselves often have several different ethnic identities since their parents and grandparents may come from several different backgrounds and their friends and partners do also. They are “skilled cross-cultural travellers“ without leaving their home-town.(B)1. Why does the writer think that Benjamin Disraelis statement is an understatement?Because he thinks London is .A. part of the world B. a miniature world thanks to its great cultural diversityC. not a nation at all(C)2. London is regarded as the most culturally diverse city in the world due to the following facts EXCEPT that .A. within 10 years 40% Londoners will be from ethnic minority groupsB. most of Britains ethnic minority groups live in London, speaking over 300 languagesC. many young people are immigrants from different backgrounds(B)3. Ethnic minority groups will make up of the London population in the future.A. 36% B. 40% C. 39%(A)4. The last paragraph mainly tells us in London .A. young people feel at ease with a large number of diversified culturesB. young people are raised in a multicultural environmentC. young people find it hard to adapt themselves to hybrid cultures(C)5. The passage mainly deals with .A. the advantage of hybrid cultures in LondonB. the composition of the population in LondonC. the cultural diversity in LondonJohn Preston lives in a flat in north London. He moved there after his wife died four years ago to be closer to his daughters family, and because his big detached house and garden were too much work for him as he got older. Its easier in the flat because the letting agent does everything that needs doing. The agent has had the roof repaired and got the gutter replaced, but at the moment John is not satisfied because the window frames need painting and the garden looks neglected. The agent had the windows painted two years ago, but the painters didnt do it very well, so they need doing again. John pays over 1,500 a year for service and maintenance, and he thinks that its not good enough because the flats look shabby and a lot of things need repairing.His daughter, June, and her husband, Peter, on the other hand, have to do everything themselves or find builders to do it. They live in a large semi-detached house further out from the centre of London than John, but they are still near enough to see him often. They live in the suburbs with a nice garden where their children play. They moved there four years ago to have more space. The only drawback is that Junes husband has to commute 最新电大复习资料into the centre of London every day, but, overall, they are happy with their decision. When they bought the house, a lot needed doing to it and it still does. June says, we have a list of things to do as long as your arm - the roof needs repairing and the chimney needs mending. The bedrooms need decorating and we havent had the broken windowpanes replaced yet in the conservatory. We need to fix the gate and repair the path - it looks dreadful when you arrive.“(F)1. John lives in the centre of London.(F)2. The agent hasnt done anything to Johns flat.(T)3. June and Pete live near to John.(T)4. There are broken windowpanes in the conservatory.(F)5.
