The idea of the Olympic Games absolutely captivated the modern 19th century nationalities.
A Frenchman called Baron de Coubertin may be the famous person behind the actual revival of the modern Olympic Games as we know them today. At the end of the nineteenth century he had an idea to bring the Olympic Games back to life. Following his suggestion, fifteen nations met at an international congress in 1894. Two years later, the first modern Olympic Games were held in Athens. Since then they have been staged every fourth year, except during World War I and World War II. Perhaps the main difference between the ancient and modern Olympics is that for the ancient Greeks the Games were a way of saluting their gods, when the modern Games are a manner of saluting the athletic talents of people of all nations.

The greenhouse effect is very important; if it didn’t occur at all, the temperature of the planet would be 40 degrees lower and the oceans would freeze. But an increase in the greenhouse effect may lead to global warming with disastrous consequences.
The higher average temperature produced by global warming could cause dramatic changes in the weather. Less rain might fall over large land masses. Central Africa, south Asia and some parts of the United States could risk severe drought and famine. More rain might fall in coastal areas and over the oceans; there might be more storms and hurricanes in the Pacific. A rise in the earth’s average temperature of only one or two degrees would probably melt the polar ice caps and raise sea levels. Sea levels throughout the world are already rising by about two millimeters a year. If the polar ice caps melt, sea levels could rise by more than a meter over a few decades.

Owing to its beauty the Kremlin was considered to be one of the finest fortresses of its epoch. It impressed all foreigners that came to the capital. However, its secrets were carefully kept, and speaking of the walls of the Moscow “castle” Englishmen said that no foreigner was allowed to have a close look at the walls of the fortress.
Now there are 20 towers in the Moscow Kremlin; the Italian architects – Antonio Fryasin and Pietro Solari – were made responsible for the main work. At the end of the 15th century, the length of the Kremlin wall was more than 2 km.
The oldest Kremlin Tower Tainitskaya (Secret) was built in 1485. It faces the Moscow River and its name is connected with a secret underground passage to the river so that the citizens were not left without water in case of a siege.
