DIALOGUE
Ann: What‘s on today?
Pat : Don‘t you remember? The World Figure-skating Championship. The final!
Ann: Oh, yes! It slipped my mind.
Mum: Don‘t even think of it! It starts at midnight and you are writing your Мaths
test tomorrow. The final! The end of semester test is your final.
Ann: But…You just can‘t understand. It‘s going to be a historic event.
Mum: I can understand it. And I can also understand that if you don‘t have a good
sleep at night, you are bound to fail.
Ann: I do promise I‘ll be as fresh as a daisy. And watching the competition will
just add to my enthusiasm.
Pat : Mum, you should probably let her watch it, shouldn‘t you? She‘ll manage
tomorrow…somehow…
Mum: Somehow… You are always saying absolutely unrealistic things. Let her
watch it… and let her fail the test. You both have never cared about your
school.
Ann: I won‘t be able to sleep anyway.
Pat : OK, Ann, just do as Mum says. And I‘ll tell you everything about the
competition tomorrow. I can actually record the competition for you to
watch it when you are back from school tomorrow.
Ann: A recorded competition! It‘s like a plastic pizza! Or diving in the bath.
Any other parents would….
Pat: Mum, you tend to be too hard on her. In her age, you know.. She is
desperate
about the situation now. Her friends are going to watch it and she won‘t be
able to discuss the competition tomorrow. And sports is one of the priorities
for teenagers now. It‘s a part of their identity.
Mum: What are you talking about? Sport is the priority?! No one in her jolly
company does any sports. If they watch some sports programmes on TV, it
Комплект «Английский язык» для основной школы

doesn‘t mean that the sport is the priority. TV is the priority.
Task: read the dialogue and say what kind of programmes do you prefer and
why?
Do your parents watch sport programmes?
What kinds of programmes do you like?
TALK SHOW
Read the example of talk show of some journalists and then make up
own talk show with your classmates about future Olympic Games in Sochi.
This is an extract from the show.
-
By the way, which are the most popular games in Russia?
-
If you mean games that are the most popular with both fans and players, It‘s ice-
hockey and football.
-
When you say football do you mean soccer or rugby, or both?
-
I beg you pardon. I don‘t quite get you.
-
There are two kinds of football. Association football, or soccer, played by team
of eleven with a round ball and rugby, or rugger, played by team of fifteen with an oval
ball.
-
Oh, I see. In this country, when we say football, we always mean soccer. Rugby
isn‘t so popular.
-
You don‘t play cricket or golf here, do you?
-
Golf‘s coming in. There are even some golf clubs in big cities. As to cricket,
frankly, most people don‘t know anything about it here. I don‘t know how it‘s played
myself.
-
It‘s pretty difficult to describe. You have to see it played. By the way, a single
game can last two days!
-
Two days! That must be awfully tiring.
-
The players don‘t all play at the same time. Each team has eleven men, like in
soccer, but there are always nine players waiting their turn and not playing in one of
the sides.
-
That sounds pretty unfair, doesn‘t it?
Комплект «Английский язык» для основной школы
43
-
Oh, no! Cricket‘s the fairest game in the world. The players must never lose
their temper or complain, even if there‘s a mistake. It‘s a good game, because it
teaches you how to lose a game without losing your temper.
In
fact, it forms your
character.
-
If someone acts unfairly, we often say, ‖It isn‘t cricket‖.
-
That‘s very interesting. I wonder if they play cricket in the US.
-
I don‘t think so. There national game is baseball, a most exciting game,
requiring great skill.
-
But cricket‘s played in most other English-speaking countries in Asia and
Africa,
in Australia and New Zealand as well. I wonder if the other sports and games here
are different from those we‘ve got at home.
-
I don‘t think so. In my opinion the main thing about sports and
games in this country is that more and more people begin to realize their
importance for the health, and try to do something to keep themselves fit. Both adults
and children go in for some kind of sport or another: swimming, track and field
athletics, figure skating, bodybuilding, judo, and karate are becoming increasingly
popular.
- And what‘s your favourite sport?

Task: read the extract from the article and answer the questions.
Russian sportsmen often win different competitions but the most honorable
among them are Olympic Games. Let‘s look through the history of Olympic movement
in Russia.
Russian sportsmen first took part in the Olympic Games in 1908 in London. In
1911 the Russian Olympic committee was founded. The first Russian Olympic gold
medal was won by figure skater Nikolai Panin-Kolomenkin. He became the first gold
medalist in the history of Olympic figure skating.
After the revolution of 1917, Soviet Russia refused to participate in the Olympic
Games. Only in 1951 the USSR Olympic Committee was formed and our sportsmen
got the opportunity to participate in Olympic competitions.

Olympic Games ceremony
Комплект «Английский язык» для основной школы

The opening ceremony at the 1896 Olympic Games in the
Panathinaiko Stadium
in
Athens
,
Greece
At the
Olympic Games
, the Ceremonies commemorate the opening and closing
of a specific celebration of the Olympics, and the awarding of medals. Baron
Pierre de
Coubertin
, the forefather of the
Modern Games
, wanted to model the revival of the
Games which were held in
ancient Olympic
. Coubertin's vision was to create a forum
not only for athletic achievement but also for artistic expression. His desire was to
bring together the greatest authors, painters, architects, and musicians along with the
world's finest athletes, to form a festival of human expression and achievement, a
vision still in evidence during the ceremonies.
Some of the elements of the various ceremonies bring us back to the Ancient
Greek Games from which the
Modern Olympics
draw their ancestry. An example of
this is the prominence of Greece in both the opening and closing ceremonies. During
the
2004 Games
, the medal winners received a crown of olive branches, which was a
direct reference to the Ancient Games, in which the victor's prize was a wreath of olive
branches. The elements of the ceremonies are regulated by the Olympic Charter and
cannot be changed by any host nation. Even the artistic part of the opening and closing
ceremonies must have the agreement of the
International Olympic Committee
.
The ceremonies have developed over the centuries. Ancient Games held
ceremonies to mark the beginning and ending of each successive games. There are
both similarities and differences between the ancient Olympic ceremonies and their
modern copies. While the presentation of the Games has had the improvements in
technology and in the artistic expression, the basic events of each ceremony are
unchangeble. The presentation of the Opening and Closing Ceremonies are still held
in tradition.

Different elements frame the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. Most of
these rituals were established at the 1920 Summer Olympics in Antwerpen.
]
The
Комплект «Английский язык» для основной школы
47
ceremony starts with the hoisting of the host country's flag and a performance of its
national anthem. The host nation presents artistic displays of music, singing, dance,
and theater representative of its culture. The artistic presentations have grown in scale
and complexity. The opening ceremony of the Beijing Games cost $100 million. The
artistic segment are usually very expensive.
After the artistic part of the ceremony, the athletes parade into the stadium
grouped by nation. Greece is traditionally the first nation to enter in order to honor the
origins of the Olympics. Nations enter the stadium alphabetically according to the host
country's chosen language. The host country's athletes are the last to enter. During the
2004 Summer Olympics
, which was hosted in
Athens, Greece
, the Greek flag entered
the stadium first, while the Greek delegation entered last. Speeches are given, formally
opening the Games. Finally, the Olympic torch is brought into the stadium and passed
on to the final torch carrier—often a well-known and successful Olympic athlete from
the host nation lights the Olympic flame in the stadium.
Closing
Athletes gather in the stadium during the closing ceremony of the
2008 Summer
Olympics
The closing ceremony of the Olympic Games takes place after all sporting events. ha
Flag-bearers from each country enter the stadium, followed by the athletes who enter
together, without any national distinction. Three national flags are hoisted while the
corresponding national anthems are played: the flag of Greece, to honor the birthplace
of the Olympic Games; the flag of the current host country, and the flag of the country
hosting the next Summer or Winter Olympic Games. The president of the organizing
committee and the IOC president make their closing speeches, the Games are officially
closed, and the Olympic flame is put out. The mayor of the city that organized the
Games transfers a special Olympic flag to the president of the IOC, who then passes it
on to the mayor of the city hosting the next Olympic Games. After these compulsory
elements, the next host nation briefly introduces itself with artistic displays of dance
and theater representative of its culture.

intertwined rings and represents the unity of the five inhabited continents...
Комплект «Английский язык» для основной школы
49
To promote the ideals of the Olympic Movement throughout the world, to
International Olympic Committee uses the Olympic symbols and attributes. They are
seven: the Olympic rings, motto, flag, anthem, mascot, flame and torch relay.
MOTTO
The Olympic motto ―Ciitus, altius, fortius‖ (Latin ―Faster, higher, stronger‖) – the
credo of those who are ready to strive for setting new records. This idea embraces the
spirit of competition. However, it is not just about the victory over the others, but
above all about the victory over oneself: to set the goal and surpass it.
FLAG
The idea of the Olympic Flag was proposed by Pierre de Coubertin in 1913. The
flag is a white silk cloth with the Olympic logo embroidered on it. The five
interlocking rings represent the five continents, demonstrating the link between
peoples of the world and the universality of the Olympic Games.
ANTHEM
This piece of music was written in 1896 by Greek composer Spiros Samaras with
the lyrics by Costis Palamas. It was declared in 1958 by the IOC as the official
Olympic anthem. The Anthem of the Olympic Games marks raising of the Olympic
flag during the Opening ceremony and during competitions.
MASCOT
Tradition to create a special mascot of the Olympic Games, bringing good luck to
athletes and fans, first appeared in 1968 in Mexico City‖ the mascot of the XIX
Summer Olympic Games was the Jaguar. New Olympic tradition all at once fell on the
soul, and thereafter every Olympic Games had their character.
MEDALS
Olympic medals, gold, silver, bronze, are awarded to three athletes, who showed
the best results in competitions. Gold medals are usually made of silver with a small
addition of gold. Until 1960, medals were made without fastenings and were awarded
to winners in hand. Later chains or bands were used.

OLYMPIC FLAME AND TORCH RELAY
Another ancient Olympic symbol is the Olympic Flame. It is lit in the Greek city
of Olympia, at the foot of Mount Kronos, through a special parabolic mirror and with
the help of a torch relay race passes from athlete to athlete. Thus, the fire crosses all 5
inhabited continents of the Earth and arrives to the venue of the Games.
Task: read the information about the Olympic symbols and try to find
information about the emblems and mascots of the Winter Olympic Games.
You can also make a small presentation about them.

background with no borders, which underlines the infinity of opportunities for people
with disabilities

PHILOSOPHY OF OLYMPIC MOVEMENT
“Friendship, perfection, respect”
The philosophy of Olympism is based on the social values of sport and on the
training process. In sports lie enormous opportunities for the implementation of the
major spiritual, moral and cultural values of the humanist society, for the integration of
these values of the younger generation.
Friendship
Sport is a tool for finding common ground not only between individuals but whole
peoples, despite their differences and disagreements.
Perfection
Commitment- at sports arena and in life. It is not so much about winning, but
about the struggle to achieve one‘s goals, overcoming oneself.
Respect
Respect for yourself, your body, respect for others, for the environment. In sport,
respect for the rules, part of the struggle against doping and other abuses.
Комплект «Английский язык» для основной школы
53
Pierre de Coubertin singled out the educational function of Olympism. He said:
―The Olympic Games should be adjusted to the best performance of the educational
role entrusted to them by the modern world.‖ Coubertin linked Olympism with the idea
of improving people, human relations and society through sports competitions. He
suggested that a true Olympian should combine physical perfection, health, beauty and
―poetry‖ of a physically developed body with such moral qualities as honesty,
generosity, unselfishness, high culture of communication.
His ideas are reflected in the Olympic Charter. It outlines the basic principles of
Olympism. It also regulates activity of the International Olympic Committee (IOC)
and determines the conditions of the Olympic Games.
―
Olympism is a philosophy of life
, it is in a balance of the qualities of body, will
and mind. Blending sport with the culture and education, Olympism tries to create a
way of life based on the joy found in effort, the educational value of good example and
respect for universal fundamental ethical principles‖.
―
The goal of Olympism
is to place sport at the service of the harmonious
development of man, with a view to promoting a peaceful society concerned with the
preservation of human dignity‖.
The Oath of Honour
As a sign of commitment to the principles of the Olympic Charter, at the opening
of the Olympic Games athletes recite the Olympic oath: ―ON behalf of all athletes, I
promise that we will participate in the Games, respecting and abiding by the rules by
which they are held, in the true spirit of sport, the glory of sport and on honour of
teams.‖
The text of the oath was written by Pierre de Coubertin in 1913 and he suggested
the ritual of the Olympic oath, which existed at the Games in ancient Greece.
For the first time the Olympic oath was voiced at the Olympics in 1920.
The oath is pronounced before the national flag on the field of the Olympic
Stadium by the athlete representing the host country of the Olympic Games.
