    When the Beijing Olympics begin this August, the world will be watching．The games have become a huge international event, People will come from around the world to watch 10,500 athletes from205 countries compete to take home the gold．It takes years of work and billions of dollars to prepare for Olympics．But it hasn’t always been that way．

The ancient Olympics

    The first recorded Olympics, in 776 B．C．, were an important religious festival．But they only included athletes from about a dozen cities．Even after 200 years, the ancient games only included Greek men from about 100 cities around Mediterranean．Unlike today, the ancient games were always at Olympia, in Greece．

    Olympic sports have also changed a lot in the last few thousand years．The ancient games began with just one 192-metre race．In later years, the games grew to include a total of six sports to test skilled soldiers．These included races where runners wore fighting equipment and the pankration―a violent sport with few rules．

The modern games

    Even the modern Olympics were once far smaller than they are today．The first of the modern games, in 1896, once had 241 athletes from 14 countries．Moreover, the early modern Olympics were not an independent event．Until 1908 the Olympics were part of the world’s fair!

    At the first modern Olympics, there were 43 events from ten sports．Many of the sports from the early modern games are no longer part of the Olympics．These include the sports of golf and tug of war．There has always been a lot of disagreement over changing Olympic sports．

    The number of Olympic sports has constantly increased throughout history．At the Beijing games, athletes will compete in 302 events from 28 sports．Despite all the changes over the years, some ancient sports are still part of the modern games．These include running, boxing and wrestling．

    The Olympics continue to grow and change, and they encourage us all to work harder , go faster and be stronger．
