The Olympic Games started in Greece in 1896. The Games are held once four years. Many people hope the Olympic Games can be held in their own countries. About ten cities are interested in bidding for the Olympic Games of 2008. “Beijing, Toronto and Paris are the most important cities bidding for the Olympic Games of 2008.” Said Richard W. Pound, the IOC’s （奥委会） first vice president. “the host city of the Olympic Games of 2008 will be decide at the IOC meeting in Moscow July this year. Beijing is getting ready for them because it nearly became the host of the Olympic Games of 2000, and Toronto and Paris also have strong power,” Said Pound at an IOC meeting. The Olympic Games of 2000 were held in Sydney. Our players did very well in the Games. Now we are all very excited and we are looking forward to the Olympic Games because they have never been held before in our country.


How long have the Olympic Games lasted

答案

通过文章里的这两句话
The Olympic Games started in Greece in 1896.the host city of the Olympic Games of 2008 will be decide at the IOC meeting in Moscow July this year.
即可计算奥运会持续了多少年.从你提供的全文里无法得知this year是哪一年,但我们知道08年奥运会北京获得举办权的结果是在2001年7月揭晓的.所以是2001减1896,105年.而且,文章的其余部分应该会有this year是哪一年.
The Olympic Games have lasted for 105 years.
我又check了一下原文,选项里是100年,103年,105年,107年.那么根据上面分析,答案应该是105年.
