3 . Olympic host cities are generally considered to be equipped with advanced technology and expensive facilities. Now, people can just go there for a little Olympic-level entertainment.
Athens, Greece (1896 and 2004)
Home to the first modern Olympic games in 1896, Athens' history of the Olympic tradition dates back several thousand years. Every four years, the Olympic torch is lit at the Panathenaic Stadium in Athens before beginning its long journey to the new host city. Visitors can walk through the Olympic Velodrome in the Olympic Sports Complex and step back in time at the 50,000-seat stadium.
Barcelona, Spain(1992)
These days Barcelona is among the world's most visitable cities even without Olympic fame, but that isn't always the case. The telecommunications tower built for the games by Spanish architect Calatrava is also an iconic(图像的) device of the city's skyline, and its Olympics stadium- Montjuic Stadium is regularly used to host A-list musical performances like The Rolling Stones, Madonna, and Beyonce.
St Moritz, Switzerland(1924 and 1948)
Appropriately, the town that invented Alpine tourism has hosted the Winter Olympics twice, and continues to make use of its many sports facilities-if you can afford to get there. Stay at the Kulm Hotel for the easiest access to the Kulm Country Club, where guests can skate on the same lake used by mid-century Olympians, or test your courage on the Olympia Bob Run, one of the few places where you can ride a full-speed Olympic bobsled(双人雪橇) on a run constructed entirely of ice.
Sydney, Australia (2000)
The turn-of-the-century Sydney Summer Olympics were named the "Green Games" by the International Olympic Committee (10C) and were designed to introduce a more environmentally conscious way of hosting the event. The structure that best shows Sydney's efforts to be an example of continuing Olympic development is the ANZ Stadium.

9 . When you’re on a journey to improve health and fitness,surely following the exercise and nutrition advice of a hot model is the way to go, right? Wrong!
♦
Begin to become aware of the language you use. When you say you don't have enough time to exercise, check in with yourself to make sure you're being honest. Could you be using your time better? Do you really have absolutely no free time at all?
♦Too tired to exercise?
Unless you’re a professional athlete it’s unlikely that your body is ever too tired to train. However, it could be neurological (神经的)tiredness that’s talking you out of it.
♦Routine or no routine?
So regular walking is good. But is fixing a regular exercise routine necessary too? The trick is to find out what works best for you. If routine makes you feel balanced, then by all accounts create a workout plan.

10 . Chess is one of the oldest board games in the world. A version of the game was first played in India in the sixth century. Throughout time, the game has been played by kings, knights, and generals who warned to prove their military skills and practice war strategies.
Today,the game is played by millions of ordinary people as well. Most play for fun,but there are players who compete seriously and have gone on to gain the rank of grandmaster -the highest rank a player can achieve.
In 1991, when Hungarian Judit Polgar achieve the rank of grandmaster, it caused quite an uproar (骚动). First of all, Polgar is a female playing in a sport traditionally dominated by men. Also, Polgar was only 15 years old, making her the youngest in history at the time. In 1993, she defeated former world champion Boris Spassky in Budapest, Hungary. In 1998, she became the first woman in history to win the U. S, Open Chess Championship, which was held in Kailua-Kona,Hawaii.
Like her two older sisters, Polgar was strictly trained to be a master chess player as a young girl. She was homeschooled in all her subjects and played chess several hours every day. At the age of five, she was beating her father at the game. At eight years old,she was competing internationally. At the age of nine,she competed in and won the New York Open Chess tournament,placing first among unranked players. The young Polgar was just getting started.
Known for her fiercely competitive nature and ability to understand her opponents strategy early in a game, Polgar quickly won the respect of both fans and fellow chess players. Despite her achievements and clear talent, she often had trouble getting into top competitive situations because many of them didn’t include women. Polgar wanted to compete with the best一to be a world champion and not just a female champion. For this reason, she absolutely refused to play in women-only competitions. Her refusal paved the way for the next generation of female chess players.
