Тема Олимпийские игры.

The Olympic Games is a very important international sports event that takes place in summer and winter, in which thousands of athletes from different countries compete with each other. The Games are held every four years, with Summer and Winter Olympic Games alternating each other, which means that every two years we have either Summer or Winter Olympics.
The Olympic Games began in Olympia, Greece in the 8th century BC. They have a long history during which they turned into a political tool either to make alliances with other nations and announce truce between countries at war or to show negative attitude towards the political system or decisions of some country by boycotting the Olympic Games held in it.
In 1894 the International Olympic Committee (IOC) was founded. The IOC has become the governing body of the Olympic Movement. The international Olympic Committee head quarters is located in Lausanne, Switzerland.
Russia has taken part in the modern Olympic Games a lot of times, but as different nations and in different membership. The Russian Empire first competed in the 1900 Games, then in 1908 and 1912 Games. When the Soviet Union was established in 1922, Russian athletes competed in the Olympic Games as part of the Soviet Union team.

In 1980, the Soviet Union hosted the Summer Olympics in Moscow.
After the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991, in 1992 Olympics Russia competed as part of the Unified Team, and once again as Russia at the 1994 Winter Olympics.
On 4 July 2007, during the 119th International Olympic Committee Session, the Russian city Sochi was elected as a host city of the 2014 Winter Olympics, officially the XXII Olympic Winter Games.
The 2014 Winter Olympics were scheduled to be held from 7 to 23 February 2014 in Sochi. One more significant event of these Games was that this was the first time Russia hosted the Paralympics. The 2014 Winter Paralympics, officially known as the XI Paralympic Winter Games, were held in Sochi from March 7 to March 16, 2014.
Both the Olympic and Paralympic Games were organized by the Sochi Organizing Committee (SOOC). The 2014 Winter Olympics were the first Olympic Games for the Russian Federation because the 1980 Summer Olympics held in Moscow were in the former Soviet Union.
Now Sochi is deeply involved in the construction of the Olympic venues. The Sochi Olympic Park was built by the Black Sea coast in the Imcretin Valley. All the venues were new and were clustered around a central water basin on which the Medals Plaza was built. The organisers took pride in the compactness of the Olympic Stadium because all indoor venues of the Olympics were gathered within walking distance.
Sochi held an unofficial referendum to elect the mascot for the 2014 Winter Olympics. There were four mascot candidates: Ded Moroz, a snowflake, a polar bear and a dolphin. The majority of Sochians voted for the dolphin. However, it was not up to the citizens of Sochi to decide on the mascot of the Games. The representatives of the Sochi Organizing Committee for the Games, the responsibility of which is to officially elect a logo and a mascot, pointed out that all citizens of the country should agree on the final version of the mascot which was also the result of work by professional designers and market analysts.
