I. 1. Read the text below and complete the following tasks. Write all the answers on the answering sheet.

The Summer Olympic Games

The Summer Olympic Games will be held in Beijing, China from August 8 to August 24. Competitors from around the world will compete for
the gold, silver or bronze medals. For some athletes, winning is not a real possibility. However, they will strive to set personal and / or national
records in their events. (1) …………. The intensely competitive nature of the games, the strong national pride involved and the challenge in
facing the best athletes from around the world combine to demand the top performances from each individual.

In a world where soccer (football), basketball, golf and tennis dominate television broadcasts, the Summer Olympic Games provide a chance to
observe sports not usually covered. When was the last time you watched water polo, or fencing? (2) …………… In this age when many people
are fortunate enough to have cable TV connections, spectators can watch a wide variety of athletic competitions.

Athletics and wrestling are probably the oldest sports in the Olympic Games. The tradition of these sports goes back to the original games held in
ancient Greece over 2500 years ago. Some of my favorite events include the javelin throw, the high jump and the pole vault, as well as the
hurdles. There will also be a wide variety of water sports that include canoeing, sailing and diving. (3) ……………………

The summer games also include a number of events that have recently been introduced to the games. (4) ………. … I certainly haven't mentioned
all the sports - who would want to miss gymnastics - but you get the idea. Turn on your TV, relax and enjoy a moment of peace and togetherness
in this struggling world of ours. The Summer Olympic Games provides an example that we all should follow: competition with respect.
