Terenzo @ Parkvale: Modern Olympic

The Modern Olympic

The thing I have been working on for the Olympic is the modem Olympic and the main thing that I learnt about in it is the Olympic torch because I wrote A report about the Olympic torch and I got a lot of my information from my computer and some from books. I will share a little bit of what I found.

Introduction

A report is about the Olympic torch if you have so seen how they lit the torch that is fine, but if you don’t know how they lit it this report will help you know how they lit.The Olympic torch the thing about this report is that it has not been rasht, but it has been dated and it has been made so that it is all about the Olympic torch and not about any other random things about the Olympics games .

What does the rio Olympic Torch look like

The Rio Olympic torch is white and the wavy lines that are green for the mountains greeny blue for the sea blue for the ground black blue. When you look at it all of it just looks like one big thing but really there parts of it that have sank into the torch. At the top of it there's some colors that look like a circle, but it is really some people holding hands. Also the top part of the torch stand for the sky and the green stand for the mountains, and lit ble is the sea and the dark blue is the ground. So that is how the Olympic torch design is different to the other Olympic torch. Also every 4 year the Olympic torch is different.

Lighting the Torch

When they go to light the Olympic torch a few people sing a chant and some of the other people dressed in the color of the Olympic Ring. Then they will stand in five connected Olympic Rings to make the olympic Ring. Two flags are razz's (raised) next to the olympic Flag and they are Greece and Brazil. the reason that it is those two flags are because Brazil was the first country to hold the Olympic games and Greece is where the torch is lit . To light the Olympic torch one luckily person walks over to a bowl shape mirror with the starting torch and then she will bend down and put the torch into the mirror. When the sun hits the right spot on the mirror it will lit (light) the starting torch and she will walk over to the person with the Olympic torch and then she will pass the sacred flame to the torch then and she will give the person with the rio 2016 Olympic and Olive wreath.

Who made the Torch

Some people would think the land Olympia or the Olympic Games made the Olympic torch but this very horrible man invent it. The reason he is so horrible is that he would kill anyone that didn’t have blue eyes and blond hair and that is the reason the flame of the Olympic torch is yellow, because he only like people with blond hair.

What does it take to carry the Torch

To carry the Olympic torch you half to be fit and helfe (healthy) so you can run long distances without stopping. It really doesn't matter how old or young you are you just need to be healthy and fit and if you believe that you can do it. Running with the torch with your arms half (have) to be strong so you can hold the torch high in the air until you reach the next person waiting for you.

To get to Rio

For the Olympic torch to get all the way to Rio from Olympia the torch has to be lit a few months before the Olympics start so it can get there in time for the opening ceremony so the flame can lit (light) the big torch. If they lit it a few weeks before the Olympics it will not make it there in time for the opening ceremony .

Facts about the 2016 Olympic Torch

The weight of the Rio 2016 Olympic Torch is 1-1.5kg and the height of it is 63.5 to 69cm. Also the amount of torchbearer were 12, 000 and they all had to run for a long time.

Conclusion

Now you know a lot more about the Olympic torch and how they light it now you can write your own report about the Olympic torch. For the Olympic torch to get all the way to Rio from Olympia the torch has to be lit a few months before the Olympic games star. So if they light Olympic torch is lit a two month before the Olympics star do you think it will make it in time?

One of the thing I did to help remember what I had read I took notes to help for when I came back to writ the next day. When I sat back down the next day I had my head down and my mind was on finish and I wrote 6 paragraphs.

The hard thing about this report was finding all of the information for my report it was fun and hard at the same time and I mostly had to look on line because there where not much books about the torch.
