     More than 50 years ago the idea of disabled people doing sport was never heard of. But when the
yearly Games for the disabled were started at Stoke Mandeville, England in 1948 by Sir Ludwig
Guttmann, the situation began to change.
     Sir Ludwig Guttmann, who had been driven to England in 1939 from Nazi Germany, had been asked
by the British government to set up an injuries centre at Stoke Mandeville Hospital near London. His ideas about treating injuries included sport for the disabled. 
     In the first Cames just two teams of injured soldiers took part. The next year, 1949, five teams took
part. From those beginnings, things have developed fast. Teams now come from abroad to Stoke
Mandeville every year. In 1960 the first Olympics for the disabled were held in Rome, in the same place as the normal Olympic Games. Now, every four years the Olympic Games for the disabled are held, if
possible, in the same place as the normal Olympic Games, although they are organized separately. In other years Games for the disabled are still held at Stoke Mandeville. In the 1984 wheelchair Olympic Cames,
1 064 wheelchair athletes (運(yùn)動(dòng)員) from about 40 countries took part. Unfortunately, they were held at
Stoke Mandeville and not in Los Angeles, along with the other Olympics.
    The Cames have been a great success in helping the progress of international friendship and
understanding, and in proving that being disabled does not mean you can't enjoy sport. One small source (來源 )  of disappointment for those who organize and take part in the Games, however, has been the
unwillingness of the International Olympic Committee (委員會(huì))  to include disabled events at the Olympic Games for the able-bodied. Perhaps a few more years are still needed to persuade those fortunate enough not to be disabled that their disabled fellow athletes should be included.
