OLYMPIC SCANDAL

Scandal has haunted the Olympic Games in modern times.At the very first Games, an Englishman called Flack(01) setoff briskly in front of the (02) fieldin themarathon. He was (03) accompaniedby his butler on abicycle.. When they neared Athens, he (04) sentthe butlerback to (05) seewho was behind him. The butler wentback about a mile but found nobody. He rode back to Flackand said, "There's nobody. You can win this thing on your

head." Then soon after, (06) upran one Greek, thenanother, and another, and another. They were full ofrunning. Perhaps Flack took a long (07) wayround?

At the next Marathon, in 1900, in Paris, the winner was aFrenchman who worked as a baker's roundsman. It was(08) stronglysuspected that he was able to takenumerous short (09) cutsbecause of his experience

delivering bread in the area.

Four years later, the Games were held in St Louis, in theUSA. This (10) timesuspicions were proved, and thescandal great. The American runner who finished first in themarathon was discovered to have accepted a (11) liftfroma car. He was disqualified.

It is not so much the scandals and disputes of recent years

that have (12)threatenedthe Games. It is their sheer(13) enormity, their excessive cost, their indulgence ofnational pride. One very sensible suggestion is that futureGames should be restricted to individual (14)eventsinwhich one person clearly wins. All team games would go,and no one would feel any loss at the disappearance ofOlympic soccer, a pale (15) shadowof the more

professional game.
