On Sept 13.2017,for the first time in history, the International Olympic Committee (IOC奧組委) has decided to host cities at the same time.Paris will host the Olympic Games in 2024 and Los Angeles in 2028.

“This is a win-win-win situation(情況) for Paris, Los Angeles and the IOC,” said IOC President(主席) Thomas Bach."These are two great cities from two great countries with a great Olympic history.”

Both cities are excited in bringing home the Games. It comes back to the US for the first time since(自從) the 1996 Atlanta Olympics and will be the third time that Los Angeles has hosted.

For Paris, the wait is longer.As the city that has hosted two Olympics before, it will host the event 100 years after its last Olympic Games.H also means Paris will become the second city to hold three Summer Olympic Games, after London and before Los Angeles.

However, the reason for the decision is that there were no other competitors (競爭對(duì)手) for the 2024 or 2028 Games In July, three of the five cities bidding for (申辦)the 2024 Olympics gave up because they think the Olympics cost much.They were Hamburg, Rome and Budapest.

But it seems Paris and Los Angeles have less problem with that.The cities have more than 90% of the facilities (設(shè)施) for the Games, which will cut the cost.

Once a little boy wanted to meet Love. He knew it was a long trip to where Love lived, so he got his things ready with some pizzas and drinks and started off. When he passed three streets, he saw an old woman sitting in the park and watching some birds. She looked very hungry. The boy gave her a pizza. She took it and smiled at him. The smile was so beautiful that he wanted to see it again, so he gave her a Coke. She smiled once again. The boy was very happy.

They sat there all the afternoon, eating and smiling, but they said nothing. When it grew dark, the boy decided to leave. But before he had gone more than a few steps(步), he turned around, ran back to the old woman and gave her a hug(擁抱). The woman gave him her biggest smile ever.

When the boy opened the door of his house, his mother was surprised by the look of joy on his face and asked what had made him so happy. “I had lunch with Love.
