It is true that the first Olympic Games of the modern times in 1896 were not open to women. Baron Pierre de Coubertin, who gave new life to the Games, was very much a man of his time. He didn"t like women showing up for the Games. But since this time, things have changed. History shows that the number of women participating in the Olympic Games has been increasing over the years, since their first participation in the 1900 Olympic Games and especially in the last 30 years. This development is of social, political and cultural significance (意义). The progress is the result of the cooperation (合作)of the entire Olympic Movement and of proper measures that the International Olympic Committee (IOC), International Sports Federations (IFs), and National Olympic Committees( NOCs) have taken. Especially in the last 20 years, the IOC has enlarged the women"s program at the Olympic Games, in cooperation with IFs and the Organizing Committees for the Olympic Games ( OCOGs ). This development was further strengthened (巩固) by the IOC"s decision that all sports must have women"s events. The IOC also started to work on increasing the number of women at leadership level in sports in 1981. Former President Juan Antonio Samaranch, who wanted to have women as IOC members, made a great contribution. (贡献). Many sports volunteers have worked to increase the number of women joining in the Olympic Games. This progress has been made also thanks to the strong determination of women from different countries of the world who have worked to make sure women are fully represented in all sports.

Imagine looking for your lost dog. You step into a cave. But instead of the dog, you find beautiful cave paintings. You see paintings of horses, deer, and bison (野牛) that are drawn in black, brown, red and yellow. Your first question would probably be"Who did this?" This is what happened to four French boys in 1940. They found the Lascaux caves. The paintings the boys discovered in those caves are 17,000 years old. They were drawn by the ancient people called Cro-Magnons. Cro-Magnons looked much like people of today. They used tools, such as fishing nets that look familiar too. But their art was extremely good. The main cave at Lascaux is called the Great Hall of Bulls (公牛 ), which has a picture of bulls and horses in many colors. The largest animal is 18 feet long. There are smaller animals, such as bison, stags (牡鹿) and a bear. There is also a strange spotted two-horned (两只角的) animal. To the left of the main cave are the most famous paintings that are the drawings of multicolored animals. One painting is called Little Horses. On the ceiling are horses and cows. The most unusual sight may be in the Shaft of the Dead Man where there is a thinoceros (犀牛), a carefully drawn dead man, a wounded bison and a bird. Why did Cro-Magnon artists do these beautiful drawings on cave walls? Did the drawings call upon some magical power? Did the Cro-Magnon people hope that the drawings would bring luck? There is one thing the paintings seem to tell us. The Cro- Magnons had a sense of wonder about the world. They looked at beauty and they understood it.

Henderson Island is a coral island raised above the South Pacific Ocean. No people live on it. The island is 9. 6 kilometers long and 5. 1 kilometers wide. It has an area of 37. 3 km2. Henderson Island became a World Heritage Site in 1988 because of its bird life. All the four kinds of special land birds ( Henderson Crake, Henderson Fruit Dove, Henderson Lorikeet and Henderson Reed-warbler) can only be seen on Henderson Island. There are also fifteen nonlocal seabirds. Other local things include nine kinds of plants ( of the sixty-three kinds on the island),four kinds of land snails (蜗牛) ( of the sixteen kinds),and one butterfly ( the only kind on the island). Although no people live on Henderson Island, archaeological (考古的) evidence suggests that a small Polynesian group lived here between the twelfth and fifteenth centuries until it disappeared. The reasons for its disappearance are unknown, but are probably related to the similar disappearance of the Polynesians on Pitcaim Island. The Hendersonians would have depended on them for many of the basics of life. On January 29,1606, Henderson Island was discovered by Portuguese sailor Pedro Femandes de Queiros, who named it San Joao Baptista. On January 17, 1819, the island was rediscovered by British Captain Henderson of the British East India Company ship Hercules, and named Henderson Island. On March 2,1819, Captain Henry King, sailing on the Elizabeth, landed on the island to find the Union flag already flying. His crew scratched (刻) the name of their ship on a tree, and for some years the name of the island was Elizabeth or Henderson. In the early 1980s, American businessman Arthur M. Ratliff expressed interest in buying Henderson Island, and establishing a small settlement with an airstrip (飞机跑道), farm, and large houses. But the British Foreign and Commonwealth Office refused it at last, after environmentalist groups persuaded them to protect the natural ecology and environment(生态环境) of the island which became a World Heritage Site later.

Long ago, children played like children do today. They got dirty from running around. Older people got dirty from working all day. But then there was no soap. What did people do to get clean? At first, people just went into a lake. They washed in the water. But then learned to use other things with the water. They put plants in a fire until they turned black. In this way,they made ashes. People used the ashes like soap. They also used oil like soap. But these were not very good. The first soaps were hard to make. First water was put in a pot. Then fat was added. Oil and ash were mixed in the pot, too. Then it was put on a fire. Everything got very hot. Salt was added. After a while the fat came to the top. When the cooked fat was taken out, it got hard. This was the first soap. The soap we use today is very different. Things were put in to make it smell good. Something is added to give it a nice color. Some soaps are white. Others are yellow, green, or blue. Soap is also cut in different ways. It can be round or square. What is soap used for? We all know that it is needed to wash things. But did you know that a kind of soap is used to oil machines? This makes them work well. Another kind of soap is put in oil to make your car run better.

America"s first zoo opened in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1859. Today about fifty million people visit zoos in this country each year."Let"s go to the zoo!" is an expression people know very well. What visitors find when they arrive has changed over the years. At one time, zoo animals lived in small, box-like cages. There was nothing except the animal, its food and its waste. The Bronx Zoo in New York City led the way to better conditions. It designed places to provide more freedom (自由) for its animals. The idea to create settings more like nature has spread to other zoos in America. For example, some-like the Saint Louis Zoo in Missouri-allow birds to fly freely, although inside buildings. Out West, one of the leading American zoos is the one in San Diego, in Southern California. Three giant pandas live there, including Hua Mei-one of the few born at a zoo in the United States. The San Diego Zoo is also known for its koalas. These brown, furry animals from Australia are much smaller than the pandas but also highly popular. Yet, back home, some Australian states fear that koalas may die out. Several years ago, the San Diego Zoo started a program to protect endangered animals and their natural areas. Other parks and wildlife groups also took part in this project. More than 2,000 animals share about 730 hectares (公顷) of land at the San Diego Wild Animal Park. Experts have praised the park as a center for protection of rare animals. For example, the Wild Animal Park has helped save the California condor (加州兀鹫). With its wings spread, this huge bird measures three meters across. In 1987, researchers caught the last known California condors in the wild and took them to the Wild Animal Park and the Los Angeles Zoo. Today, more than 150 California condors are alive. Some have been freed into the wild.
