【原文】
Pausanias,who was a Greek writer about 2,000 years ago,has come on a magical journey on M arch 18th,2007 to find out about the present－day Olympic Games. He is now interviewing Li Yan, a volunteer for the 2008 Olympic Games.
P:My name is Pausanias. I lived in what you call"Ancient Greece" and I used to write about the Olympic Games a long time ago. I' ve come to your time to find out about the present-day Olympic Games because I know that in 2004 they were held in my homeland. May I ask you some questions about the modern Olympics?
L：Good heavens! Have you really come from so long ago? But of course you can ask any questions you like. What would you like to know?
P：How often do you hold your Games?
L：Every four years. There are two main sets of Games—the Winter and the Summer Olympics,and both are held every four years on a regular basis.The Winter Olympics are usually held two years before the Summer Games. Only athletes who have reached the agreed standard for their event will be admitted as competitiors. They may come from anywhere in the world.
P：Winter Games? How can the runners enjoy competing in winter? And what about the horses?
L：Oh no! There are no running races or horse riding events. Instead there are competitions like skiing and ice skating which need snow and ice. That' s why they' re called the Winter Olympics. It' s in the Summer Olympics that you have the running races,together with swimming, sailing and all the team sports.
P：I see. Earlier you said that athletes are invited from all over the world. Do you mean the Greek world? Our Greek cities used to compete against each other just for the honour of winning. No other countries could join in, nor could slaves or women!
L：Nowadays any country can take part if their athletes are good enough. There are over 250 sports and each one has its own standard. Women are not only allowed,but play a very important role in gymnastics, athletics,team sports and ……
P：Please wait a minute! All those events, all those countries and even women taking part! Where are all the athletes housed?
L：For each Olympics,a special village is built for them to live in, a main reception building, several stadiums for competitions, and a gymnasium as well.
P：That sounds very expensive. Does anyone want to host the Olympic Games?
L：As a matter of fact, every country wants the opportunity. It's a great responsibility but also a great honour to be chosen. There's as much competition among countries to host the Olympics as to win Olympic medals. The 2008 Olympics will be held in Beijing, China. Did you know that?
P：Oh yes! You must be very proud.
L：Certainly. And after that the 2012 Olympics will be held in London. They have already started planning for it. A new village for the athletes and all the stadiums will be built to the east of London. New medals will be designed of course and……
P：Did you say medals? So even the olive wreath has been replaced! Oh dear! Do you compete for prize money too?
L：No,we don't. It's still all about being able to run faster, jump higher and throw further. That's the motto of the Olympics, you know—"Swifter, Higher and Stronger. "
P：Well,that's good news.How interesting! Thank you so much for your time.

帕萨尼亚斯是大约2，000年前的一位希腊作家，在2007年3月18日他作了一次魔幻旅行，来了解关于当今奥林匹克运动会的情况。他现在正在采访一位2008奥林匹克运动会的志愿者—李岩。
帕：我叫帕萨尼亚斯。我生活在你们所说的“古希腊”，我过去曾经写过关于很多年前的奥运会。我来到你们这个时代，是想了解有关当代奥运会的情况，因为我知道2004年奥运会是在我的家乡举行的。我能问你几个关于现代奥运会的问题吗？
李：天哪！你真的来自那么久以前吗?但是当然你可以问任何你喜欢的问题。你想了解什么呢？
帕：你们的奥运会多久举行一次？
李：每四年。奥运会有两种—冬季奥运会和夏季奥运会，这两种奥运会都是有一定规律每四年举行一次。冬季奥运会通常是在夏季奥运会的`前两年举行。只有达到了他们比赛标准的运动员可以参赛。他们可以来自世界的任何地方。
帕：冬季奥运会？赛跑运功员们怎么喜欢在冬天比赛？又怎么可能赛马呢？
李：噢，不！没有赛跑和赛马。相反，有像滑雪和溜冰这类需要冰雪的比赛项目。那就是为什么它们叫做冬季奥运会。在夏季奥运会中才有赛跑和游泳、划船和所有团队运动。
帕：我明白了。先前你说被邀请的运动员来自全世界。你是指希腊的世界？我们希腊各城市之间过去曾经为了赢得胜利的荣誉而彼此竞争。别的国家不能参加，奴隶和妇女也不能参加。
李：如今任何国家都能参赛，如果他们的运动员足够好。总共有250个运动项目，并且每个项目都有它自己的标准。妇女不但允许参加，而且她们还在体操、田径、团队运动和……中起着非常重要的作用。
帕：请等一下！所有那些项目，所有那些国家，甚至妇女也都参加！所有这些参赛的人都住在哪里？
李：每次奥运会举行地都会建立一个特殊的村庄供参赛者居住，一个主要的接待大楼，几个供比赛用的体育馆还有室内体育馆。
帕：听起来要花很多钱吧。有人想承办奥运会吗？
李：事实上，人人都想承办。这是极大的责任而且被选上也是很大的荣誉。国与国之间争取奥运会的承办权的竞争就像争夺奥运奖牌一样。2008年的奥运会将在中国举行。你知道吗？
帕：是的！你一定和骄傲吧。
李：当然。在那之后，2012年奥运会将在伦敦举行。他们已经开始为此计划了。一个新的为运动员的村庄和和所有体育场馆将在伦敦东部建立。当然新的奖牌将被设计……
帕：你刚才说奖牌吗？那么就连橄榄枝花环也被取代了！天哪！你也为奖金而竞争吗？
李：不，我们不是为了钱。而是能够跑得更快、跳得更高、掷的更远。那就是奥运会的格言，你知道—“更快、更高、更强。”
帕：那真是条好新闻。多有趣啊！谢谢，占用了你的时间。
