The Olympic Games have changed a lot since they were first held in Athens, Greece, in 1896. At that time, winners got silver medals instead of gold ones. Sounds strange, doesn’t it? People thought silver was better than gold．No women competed in the first Olympics, and only 14 countries took part.

   In the early years of the Olympics, there weren’t many sports. In the first Greek Games, event usually took place in the Panathenaic Stadium（雅典体育场），and you can still see it today. Players did not wear their countries’ clothes in 1896.They traveled to Athens by themselves and had to use their own money to take part.

New sports have been put into the Olympics over time, like badminton and table tennis, Some older games are no longer played, like tug-of-war（拔河）.

   Swimming was different in 1896. There was a 1200-metre race in the sea．A boat took swimmers out into the sea and they had to swim back to land．The first person to win that race was Alfred Hajos. He seemed happy just to finish. “I just wanted to live. That’s more important than winning,” he said．
