(C) In 1896, the first modern Olympic Games was held in Athens, Greece. Since then many countries have successfully held the Olympics, such as England, France, Germany, Canada, the USA, Spain and Australia. After more than a century the Games returned to its hometown in 2004. When people hold the Olympic Games, they always make an emblem(会徽). The emblem of the Athens Olympic Games that year was a white circle of olive branches(橄榄枝) in the sky. Athens developed a spirit(精神) of peace. An officer said, “ While in Athens, the world should be at peace. We hope the peace is not just for a short time. We would like the message from Athens Games to help countries come together and solve(解决) their problems.” 4 years later, the Olympic Games was held in China. And China made a seal as the emblem of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. The emblem has a Chinese character on a red seal and means “Chinese seal—dancing Beijing”. Below it, there are the words “Beijing 2008”. The character in the emblem is “Jing”. It means “capital” of China, and it is also like a runner or a dancer. The running figure(人形) of the emblem shows the spirit if the Olympics—faster, higher and stronger. ( )61. Which country held the first modern Olympic Games? A. Greece B. China C. Australia D.
