    2004．Athens．2008．Beijing．Which one is coming next? Five hopeful cities are waiting to find out where the 2012 Olympics will be held．

    Hosting is no easy work but it's a good chance for a country to attract tourists and make friends with people from all over tile world．

    Two years ago，cities which were interested in hosting tile Games enrolled(登记) their names．Later they handed in their reports to the International Olympic Committee．Nine cities hoped that they would have the honor．On May18，2004，after the careful checking of each report，the IOC chose five cities；Paris，London，Moscow, Madrid(马德里) and New York City to be the possible cities to hold tile 2012 Olympic Games．

    Since February．the IOC has visited these five cities，Moscow being the last，to hear each city’s report as to how they will host the Games．

Want to know the result? Some people guess that Paris will be the winner．London and New York could only show plans for gyms to be built for the Games．but Paris showed off their well-run gym that was built for the 1998 Soccer World Cup．One problem with Paris is that they ran against Beijing for the 2008 Game．The IOC members thought that French people were too proud

But don’t rush to give an answer．Wait until July 6．On that day in Singapore the IOC will tell the world which city is going to be the next Olympic host．Before that．nobody can be sure!
