The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has added breaking (霹雳舞) to the 2024 Paris Olympic Games! Breaking might be one of the very unusual sports to be added to the Olympic Games, as it’s often seen as more of an art form than a sport.
四、阅读理解。(建议用时:6+5=11分钟)
The dance style first appeared on the streets of New York in the 1970s.Performers danced to hip⁃hop music while using different movements, such as spins and freezes.In the 1980s, breaking swept around the world when it was adopted by pop stars such as Michael Jackson.Jackson’s moonwalk—a dance move that made him appear to be “floating” above the ground—became popular among teenagers worldwide.
Over the past few years, there has been talk that the Olympics has become irrelevant (不相关的) and less interesting to young people.The IOC is trying to make the Games more “youthful” and more “urban”, with sports that young people actually do in their free time.“We want to take sports to the youth,” said IOC President Thomas Bach.
To be added to the Olympics, a sport must be widely practiced by men in at least 75 countries on four continents (大洲) and by women in no fewer than 40 countries on three continents.Breaking certainly meets this standard (标准), according to The Sydney Morning Herald.It must also be competitive and need strict training just like other sports.Breakdancers need to have strong upper bodies and core strength.
