The first modern Olympic Games was held in Athens, Greece, in 1896.The first Paralympic Games took place in Rome, Italy, in 1960.What about the first Special Olympics?
首届现代奥运会于1896年在希腊雅典举行。首届残疾人奥林匹克运动会于1960年在意大利罗马举行。那么，首届世界特殊奥林匹克运动会（特奥会）又是怎样的情况?
"When our volunteers took to the streets to ask people about the Special Olympics, hardly anyone had heard of it," said Zheng Xingkui, 43, founder of Green House, an NGO based in Shanghai. "And among the few who did know about it, they couldn't really say the difference between the Special Olympics and Paralympics. That was frustrating."
“当我们的志愿者走上街头向人们询问有关特奥会的问题时，几乎没有人听说过它”，总部位于上海的非政府组织“绿房子公益”创始人、43岁的郑兴魁表示，“而在少数知晓特奥会的人中，他们说不出特奥会和残奥会的区别。这一点令人颇为失望啊。”
As an organization dedicated to providing support to autistic people and their families, Green House is one of the East Asia partners of the 2023 Special Olympics World Summer Games, which is currently taking place in Berlin, Germany, from June 17 to 25.
作为致力于帮助孤独症患者及其家庭的公益组织，“绿房子公益”是目前在德国柏林举行的2023年世界夏季特殊奥林匹克运动会（6月17日至25日）的东亚合作伙伴之一。
