But when the 42 games for the disabled were started at Stoke Mandeville, England in 1948 by Sir Ludwig Guttmann, the situation began to change. Sir Ludwig Guttmann, who had been driven to England in 1939 from Nazi Germany, had been asked by the British government to set up a(n) 43 centre at Stoke Mandeville Hospital near London. His ideas about treating injuries included sports for the disabled. In the first games just two teams of injured soldiers took part. The next year, 1949, five teams took part. From those beginnings things developed fast. Teams now come from abroad to Stoke Mandeville every year. In 1960 the first Olympics for the Disabled were held in Rome. Now, every four years the Olympic Games for the Disabled are held, if possible, in the same place as the normal Olympic Games, although they are 44 separately. In other years Games for the Disabled are still held at Stoke Mandeville. In the 1984 Wheelchair Olympic Games, 1604 wheelchair athletes from about 40 countries took part. 45 , they were held at Stoke Mandeville and not in Los Angeles, along with the other Olympics. The Games have been a great success in 46 international friendship and understanding, and in proving that being disabled does not 47 you can't enjoy sports. One small 48 of disappointment for those who organize and take part in the games, however, has been the 49 of the International Olympic Committee to include the disabled events at the Olympic Games for the able bodied. Perhaps a few more years are still needed to 50 those fortunate enough not to be disabled that their disabled fellow athletes should not be 51 .

YES NO 　　It is reasonable to offer prizes to the high-level per- formers. This is because one needs to pay a greater amount of effort than others in order to earn a higher grade in the exams. 　　Top performers normal- ly act as a facilitator to en- courage other students to work harder and they can cre- ate a competitive learning en- vironment at the school. 　　Academic study is also a kind of competition and should abide by the rule of fairness, so the best perform- ers should be rewarded. 　　Those best students are relatively few in a class. If we only pay attention to those high-level learners and ignore the rest of the students, their enthusiasm for study, to a large degree, might be re- duced. 　　It is necessary for teachers to give certain awards to those who put consider- able efforts into their study. The extrinsic reward provided for them is a motivator for them study further since a sense of ac- complishment can boost their confidence and help them get great improvements in their later study. 　　Instead of the best students, those who have made improvements in their study should be rewarded because it is a kind of recognition of their efforts and industry.
