阅读短文，选择正确答案。

    In 1896, the first modern Olympic Games was held in Athens, Greece. Since then many countries have
successfully held the Olympics, such as England, France, Germany, Canada, the USA, Spain and Australia. After
more than a century the Games returns to its hometown last year.
    When people hold the Olympic Games, they always make an emblem. The emblem of the Athens Olympic
Games last year was a white circle of olive branches in the sky.
    Now Athens is developing a spirit of peace. An officer said, "While in Athens, the world should be at peace.
We hope the peace is not just for a short time. We would like the message from the Athens Games to help
countries come together and solve their problems."
    Three years later, the Olympic Games will be held in China. And China has already made a seal as the
emblem of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. The emblem has a single Chinese character on a red seal and
means "Chinese seal-dancing Beijing". Below it, there are the words "Beijing 2008". The character in the emblem
is "Jing". It means "capital" of China and it is also a runner or a dancer. The running figure of the emblem shows
the spirit of the Olympics-faster, higher and stronger.
