Here is some “breaking” news: the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has added breaking(地板舞) into the 2024 Paris Olympic Games!
Breaking might be one of the very strange sports to be added to the Games, as it is seen as an art.
The dance style first appeared on the streets of New York in the 1970s. In the 1980s, breaking swept around the world when it was adopted (采用) by pop stars such as Michael Jackson. Young people worldwide were crazy about such kind of dance style.
Over the past few years, there has been a talk that the Olympic Games have become less interesting to young people. The IOC is trying to make the Games more “youthful”, with sports that young people do in their spare time. “We want to take sport to the youth, ”said IOC President Thomas Bach.
To be added to the Olympics, a sport must be practised by men in at least 75 countries on four continents (洲) and by women in no fewer than 40 countries on three continents. Also, it should be competitive and requires training just like other sports. Dancers need to have strong upper body and core strength. “It’s great that it gives us more recognition as a sport,” said British breakdancer Karam .
