    Lets Talk

    1 Where are Joey and Jade in the picture? Have the Olympics ever been held in your city?
    2 Which Olympic Games has been your favorite and why?

    Step 4

    Listen and Number Put the sections in order.

    First, I will talk about the Summer Olympic Games. The Summer Games are bigger than
    the Winter Games.
    In the Winter Games, just around 80 countries compete, and there are only 15 sports.
    I want to start by saying there are two kinds of Olympic Games: Summer Olympic Games
    and Winter Olympic Games.
    But the Winter Olympic Games are much smaller than the Summer Games.
    Hello, everyone. Good afternoon. My name is James Richardson, and I am from the
    Olympics committee.
    While they are different, both the Summer and Winter Games are very popular
    worldwide.
    The topic of my speech today is the differences between the Summer and Winter
    Olympics.
    In the Summer Games, over 200 countries compete. Also, there are more than 40
    different kinds of sporting events.
