The Olympic Games are more than just the world's biggest and most important sporting events - they are a celebration of the human spirit

In the first modern Olympics, athletes from 13 countries competed in nine different sports. In the last Olympic Games, more than 10,000 athletes from around 200 different countries competed in almost 30 different sports, including archery, athletics, basketball, boxing, cycling, soccer, gymnastics, sailing, swimming, tennis and wrestling. The Olympic Games are held every four years in different cities all over the world
There are also the Winter Olympic Games, which began in 1924. The Winter Olympics include skiing, snowboarding, skating and ice hockey. They are also held every four years in different places around the world

My name is Ovais and I live in Pakistan. I haven't had many opportunities in my life to be around people who are different from me, but being part of the Special Olympics changed that. By being part of a training programme for basketball, I learned to be energised and excited by difference, not afraid or nervous
I visited the sports camp a few times per week - I would take the bus by myself and reach the sports complex by nine in the morning. Once I was there, I would play basketball with two or three athletes with intellectual disabilities. While I was there, I met Abdullah, one of the athletes. We had lots of fun together - and pretty soon a strong bond formed between us. We looked for each other each morning and exercised together, playing basketball or running around. Even though Abdullah and others in the camp were different from me, that didn't bother me. I saw how energetic and enthusiastic Abdullah was and how eager he was to learn new things in basketball. Quickly, I shared in the same energy and same excitement. And I wanted to share it with others - I decided to help in increasing inclusion in my community so others could feel the excitement I felt from Abdullah. Basketball was a great place to start
Read the story An Olympic Friendship. Then answer the question that follows
The Czechoslovak long-distance runner Emil Zátopek, who won three gold medals at the 1952 Olympic Games in Helsinki, was as renowned for his friendliness as his athletic brilliance. He made many good friends among his rivals, especially French runner Alain Mimoun
Every time Zátopek won gold, Alain Mimoun won silver. Some athletes might have been jealous of this rival, but not Mimoun. The warmth and sincerity in their friendship was clear in their embrace after every race
There was a surprise at the 1956 Olympic Games in Melbourne when Mimoun beat his rival for the first time ever. It was an extraordinary achievement, but what happened afterwards was even more extraordinary With delight, Zátopek embraced his victorious friend. Later, Zátopek said that he was as proud as if he had won himself, while Mimoun claimed that his friend's congratulations was "for me, better than a medal”. Zátopek once said: “Great is the victory, but greater still is the friendship.” He was surely talking of his friendship with Mimoun
Read the story A Young Emirati Judoka Inspired by Fair Play about respect. Then answer the questions that follow
When asked about his role models in sport, Emirati judo star Humaid Al Derei does not hesitate: he immediately mentions Egyptian judoka Mohamed Ali Rashwan, who won a silver medal in the 1984 Olympic Games in Los Angeles
Al Derei recounts how Rashwan gave up the chance of winning a gold medal by refusing to target his opponent's injured right leg. His opponent went on to win the gold medal, but Rashwan was awarded the Fair Play International Award for his "remarkable sporting spirit". Because of his fair play and sportsmanship, Rashwan has been an inspiration to Al Derie throughout his career. Here was a man who believed in fair play even if it meant losing an Olympic gold medal. "So from that time, he was my role model," explained Al Derei
Al Derei has already competed in one Olympic Games - he got to the second round of the 2012 Olympic Games in London - and is now preparing for the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo
"Insh'Allah I am aiming for the Olympics in Tokyo 2020," he says. With his dedication to excellence and commitment to fair play, there is no doubt that Humaid Al Derei will represent his country with pride and honour
Read the text A History of Leisure in the UAE on the UAE's age of leisure. Then answer the questions
In the late 1960s, the UAE embraced leisure. Suddenly, life changed dramatically. Before then, people had no time or money for leisure - finding food and shelter was the main activity for most families. Not anymore. As towns and villages became major cities, people's expectations increased. Fortunately, the Rulers of the UAE understood and appreciated this. Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan May God have mercy upon him, the first President of the UAE, in particular, believed passionately that urban living should be built around open spaces. Abu Dhabi and Al Ain were designed with trees and parks for populations to escape the pressures of busy lives. One of the first leisure facilities opened in Dubai was Leisureland, the first purpose-built place of entertainment in the UAE. Then came the capital's Tourist Club, which offered skating, karting and computer games, which were the latest wonder at the time. It was at this time that restaurants and cafes became centres for socialising But not everything costs money. One of the earliest construction projects of the new city of Abu Dhabi was the Corniche, a waterfront promenade that allowed everyone to enjoy the cooling sea breezes. The UAE is a place that never stands still, even when relaxing
