It made so much sense that people took it for magic(魔术). They expressed the world in a picture. There was something so real about this new thing called “map” that it helped us believe we could get there.

In 776 B.C. the first Olympic Games were held at the foot of Mount Olympus to honour Greeks’ chief god, Zeus(向希腊主要神祗宙斯献礼). The Greeks emphasized(注重)physical fitness and strength in their education of youth. Therefore, matches in running, jumping, discus(铁饼), throwing, boxing, horse-racing and so on were held in each city and the winners competed every four years at Mount Olympus. Winners were greatly honoured by having olive wreaths(橄榄枝花环)placed on their heads and having poems sung about their deeds. Originally(起初)these were held as games of friendship, and any wars that were going on were stopped to allow the games .
