This is the only event in Olympic history that involved killing live animals.Kabaddi (1936)This sport is popular in South Asia. The object is for one member of a team to enter the other sides half of the field, and score points. The attacker then returns to his half of the field.12 Hour Bicycle Race (1896)Seven riders got on their bikes at 5 a.m. and rode until 5 p.m. Four riders dropped out before noon, but the winner, Adolf Schmal of Austria, managed about 180 miles. Only Schmal and one other finished.Tug of War (19001920)This may seem like a basic PE class sport more than an Olympic event, but Tug of War was actually one of the first sports played at the Olympic games in 500 BC.There are two teams of eight; the winning team must pull the other team six feet forward.Swimming Obstacle Race (1900)The athletes had to climb over a pole (杆子) and a row of boats, and then swim under another row of boats.

You dont need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you.Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that cant be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge(向挑战)yourself. So you can not always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转)door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.（1）Those who have big houses may often feel .A . happyB . lonelyC . freeD . excited（2）When you fall down in a PE class, both your teacher and your classmates will .A . augh at youB . play jokes on youC . quarrel with youD . help you up（3）What will your friends say to you when you make great progress?A .
