P.14                       THE STORY OF ATLANTA

Atlanta was a Greek princess. She was very beautiful and could run faster than any man in Greece. But she was not allowed to run and win glory for herself in the Olympic Games. She was  so angry that she said to her father that she would not marry anyone who could not run faster than her. Her father said that she must marry, so Atlanta made a bargain with him. She said to him,  "These are my rules. When a man says he wants to marry me, I will run against him. If he cannot run as fast as me, he will be killed. No one will be pardoned."

Many kings and princes wanted to marry Atlanta, but when they heard of her rules they knew it was hopeless.  So many of them sadly went home, but others stayed to run the race. There was a man called Hippomenes [希神]希波墨涅斯(在同美女Atalanta赛跑中获胜,因而得以娶她为妻)who was amazed when he heard of Atlanta's rules, "Why are these men so foolish?" he thought. "Why will they let themselves be killed because they cannot run as fast as this princess?" However, when he saw Atlanta come out of her house to run, Hippomenes changed his mind. "I will marry Atlanta - or die!" he said.

The race started and although the men ran very fast, Atlanta ran faster. As Hippomenes watched he thought, "How can I run as fast as Atlanta?" He went to ask the Greek Goddess of Love for help. She promised to help him and gave him three golden apples.  She said, "Throw an apple in front of Atlanta when she is runningpast and she will be relaxed. When she stops  to pick  it up, you will be able to run past her and win."

Hippomenes took the apples and went to the King. He said, "I want to marry Atlanta." The King was sad to see another man die, but Hippomenes said, "I will marry her - or die!" So the race began.

She was very beautiful and could run faster than any woman in Greece.   (对?错?)
