29、he fires and lights on and off for you. They will detect faulty electrical appliances, plugs or switches, isolate them so that they cannot harm anyone, and then warn you that they need repair. They will detect fire and if you are out of the house, the computer will call the fire brigade. It will als

30、o call the police should the sensors detect an intruder. This will not be too difficult because the locks on the outside doors will be electronic.

The Olympian athletic festival held every four years in honour of Zeus, king of the Olympian G

37、ods, eventually lost its local character, became first a national event and then, after the rules against foreign competitors had been abolished, international. No one knows exactly how far back the Olympic Games go, but some official records date from 776 B. C. The games took place in August on the

38、 plain by Mount Olympus. Many thousands of spectators gathered from all parts of Greece, but no married woman was admitted even as a spectator. Slaves, women and dishonored persons were not allowed to compete. The exact sequence of events is uncertain, but events included boys gymnastics, boxing, wr

39、estling, horse racing and field events, though there were fewer sports involved than in the modern Olympic Games.

40、name to the year of his victory. Although Olympic winners received no prize money, they were, in fact, richly rewarded by their state authorities.

41、mes were suspended by the Romans in 394 A. D. They continued for such a long time because people believed in the philosophy behind the Olympics: the idea that a healthy body produced a healthy mind, and that the spirit of competition in sports and games was preferable to the competition that caused

42、wars. It was over 1 500 years before another such international athletic gathering took place in Athens in 1896. Nowadays, the Games are held in different countries in turn. The host country provides vast facilities, including a stadium, swimming pools and living accommodation, but competing countri

43、es pay their own athletes expenses. The Olympics start with the arrival in the stadium of a torch, lighted on Mount Olympus by the suns rays. It is carried by a succession of runners to the stadium. The torch symbolized the continuation of the ancient Greek athletic ideals, and it burns throughout t

44、he games until the closing ceremony. The well-known Olympic flag, however, is a modern conception, the five interlocking rings symbolize the uniting of all five continents participating in the Games. 36 In ancient Greece, the Olympic Games_. （ A） were merely national athletic festivals （ B） were in
