[00:10.10]Exercise 1.2

[00:12.53]Most people would be happy to

[00:14.21]win one Olympic medal.

[00:16.19]Imagine winning 1 medals at four Olympic Games!

[00:19.62]Chinese athlete Wang Yifu achieved this amazing

[00:23.65]success when he won a gold medal at the 2004

[00:27.99]Olympic Games in Athens 2.

[00:29.90]He had already won three Olympic medals in the

[00:32.41]past:

[00:33.71]a gold in Barcelona in 1992 and two silver

[00:37.55]medals in Atlanta in 1996 and in Sydney in 2000

[00:43.28]Before he went to Athens,

[00:45.22]many people had doubted the decision to have

[00:47.54]Wang Yifu in the Chinese shooting 3 team:

[00:51.16]he was 44 years old

[00:52.89]and he was not in good health.

[00:55.05]His success proved his ability.

[00:57.74]Before the final round,

[00:59.36]a Russian athlete has set a new Olympic record

[01:03.18]All through the final round,

[01:04.84]Wang Yifu had been behind that athlete,

[01:07.89]but he scored well on his final shot 4 to win the

[01:10.33]gold and set a new Olympic record with a total

[01:14.25]of 690.0 points.

[01:17.82]Wang Yifu's gold medal was the second one of

[01:20.75]the 2004 Olympics and the second for China.

[01:24.93]Earlier, his teammate 5 Du Li had won the first

[01:28.33]gold medal of the Olympics in the women's

[01:30.75]10-meter air rifle 6 event.

[01:33.30]Du Li's success was similar to Wang Yifu's.

[01:37.25]A Russian athlete had been in the first place

[01:39.92]for most of the final round but,

[01:41.71]like Wang Yifu,Du Li was able to come from

[01:45.51]behind to beat her and win the gold melal.

[01:49.62]These two gold medals did not surprise

[01:51.92]some Chinese officials.

[01:53.74]They had predicted 7 that the shooting team

[01:55.94]would win a few medals in the shooting events.

[01:58.86]At the 2004 Olympic Games.

[02:01.31]China won a total fo 63 medals,

[02:04.10]including 32 gold medals.

[02:06.75]China had never won so many medals before.

[02:10.36]In 2000, China won 59 medals

[02:14.10]including 28 gold medals.

[02:21.88]Exercise 2.2

[02:24.46]Kong Linghui is one of the most famous

[02:27.17]table tennis players in the world.

[02:29.66]He started playing table tennis

[02:31.61]when he was six years old.

[02:33.59]In 1991, he became a member of the Chinese

[02:37.03]national table tennis team.

[02:39.84]He has attended many world competitions

[02:42.63]and has won a number of medals.

[02:58.00]place five times, second place four times,

[03:01.79]and third place twice at the World Table
