Ms. Liu: Excellent!Did anyone find out where the ancient Olympics began Li Ming: I know that!They started in Greece. 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! Li Ming: Now both men and women can take part in the Olympics!
