（一）课文重难点
Every four years…
英语中表示“每…”用every…~s
如：每5天/每隔四天，every 5 days或every fifth day；
Many of the sports were the same as they are now.
比较状语从句中，as，than的后面的从句中用动词的不同时态表示与以前，过去及将来相比。
Some of the games in which the young men competed were……
介词+which的定语从句，注意此句中compete的用法。
They were held in Greece-the country in which the Games were born
注意：奥运会Olympic Games永远以复数形式出现
28 gold medals, ranking third of all the competing countries
注意：ranking在此处做伴随状语，注意rank的词组，rank sb. sth.（给某人定为…身份，头衔）和sb. rank sth.（某人处于…身份头衔）
Following the history-making success……
构词法，名词宾语+doing合成形容词
To make it the ever best Games……
注意此处的ever的用法和意义，此处用ever修饰最高级best，且此处的ever当永远，有史以来讲。这一点从ever构成的合成词中也可以见到，如：ever-green（长青的）
……will be preparing to light the Olympic torch to welcome……
将来进行时，表示将来某时正在做某事。
light sth. 点燃，注意light的形容词lighted和lit
首先它们都是light的过去式和过去分词，但它们作形容词时的用法不太相同，
如：The candle was lit/lighted.
a lighted candle
由此不难看出lit和lighted都可以用于表语，而只有lighted才能用于定语。
（二）WORKBOOK重难点
…France will be represented by three fencers.
注意represent一词，有“代表”的意思，且多用于被动语态。
Matches will be won or lost in a matter of seconds.
注意此句中matter的用法，matter有“事情，事情的核心”的意思，如：It’s not a matter of money, but a matter of time.
