The 2016 Rio Olympic Games have come to an end. Without doubt, many Chinese sports fans sat in front of the TV and cheered our athletes on, hoping that they would get as many gold medals as possible.

But sometimes our desire for gold medals can result in the sadness of failure. When Liu Xiang, China’s track hero, pulled out of the Beijing Olympics due to injury, he greatly disappointed many Chinese sports fans.

But things are different now. In the 2016 Rio Olympic Games, we saw a healthier and more lenient Chinese attitude toward the sportspeople, fully in line with the Olympic spirit.

China didn’t win any gold medals on the first day. But, instead of criticizing the athletes who failed to finish on top of the podium(領獎臺), the majority of fans were happy with their efforts. “Reacting in the right way when an athlete misses out on gold shows the maturity of a person, and is also a challenge for a country to face up to in the process of development,” commented CRI.

Swimmer Fu Yuanhui won fans’ hearts, even if she only won a bronze medal in the 100m backstroke final. Her fans on her Sina Weibo micro blog have increased 100,000 to over 6 million. Many sports fans appreciated her straightforward character and attitude toward competition.

“The warm support from Internet users shows that public attitude toward competitive sport and the Olympics have gotten to a higher level,” said an article in the People’s Daily.

1.From passage 2, what can we know about Liu Xiang?

材料 1978年底,安徽省鳳陽縣小崗村18戶農(nóng)民為擺脫貧困,暗中自發(fā)將集體耕地包干到戶。1979年2月,中共安徽省委召開會議,決定在肥西縣山南公社進行包產(chǎn)到戶試點,指出:許多干部一講到包產(chǎn)到戶,就心有余悸,可以說談“包”色變,但農(nóng)民普遍希望包產(chǎn)到戶,這是矛盾,必須要在實踐中加以檢驗。會議強調(diào)試點不宣傳、不報道、不推廣。1979年9月,中共中央下發(fā)文件,認為因某些副業(yè)生產(chǎn)的特殊需要和邊遠山區(qū)、交通不便的單家獨戶可以實行包產(chǎn)到戶,一般不加以提倡。1980年9月,中央下發(fā)《關于進一步加強和完善農(nóng)業(yè)生產(chǎn)責任制的幾個問題》,指出:“在生產(chǎn)隊領導下實行的包產(chǎn)到戶是依存于社會主義經(jīng)濟,而不會脫離社會主義軌道的,沒有什么復辟資本主義的危險!1982年9月,中共“十二大”對以包產(chǎn)到戶為主要形式的農(nóng)業(yè)生產(chǎn)責任制改革予以肯定,包產(chǎn)到戶在農(nóng)村迅速推廣。1980年11月,全國農(nóng)村實行包產(chǎn)到戶的生產(chǎn)隊為15%;到1983年初,這一比例達到93%。
