Olympic Games

The custom of lighting an Olympic Flame comes from the ancient Greek. During the Ancient Olympic Games, a sacred [‘sekrd] 宗教的； 神圣的 flame was lit from a site at Olympia, and stayed lit until the Games were completed. It was first introduced into the Modern Olympics at the 1928 Amsterdam Games ( the capital of the Netherlands ；Holland) . Since then, the flame has come to represent “ the light of spirit ,knowledge, and life .”

The Torch Relay also began at the Ancient Olympics and came back into use at the 1963 Berlin Games. From the beginning, the torch was lit at Olympia in Greece and then carried by relay to the host-city of the games. The last runner carries the torch into Olympic Stadium during the Opening Ceremony. The flame is then lit from the torch and remains lit until it stops burning during the Closing Ceremony. The Torch Relay represents the passing of Olympic customs from one generation to the next.)

( 奥林匹克运动会曾在两次世界大战中中断过三次，分别是在公元1916、1940和1944年 )
