C. READING: * Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
The Asian Games owes its origins to small Asian multi-sport competitions. The Far Eastern Championship Games were
created to show unity and cooperation among three nations: Japan, the Philippines and China. The first games were held in
Manila, the Philippines in 1931. Other Asian nations participated after it was organized.
After World War II, a number of Asian countries became independent. Many of the new independent Asian countries
wanted to use a new type of competition where Asian dominance should not be shown by violence and should be strengthened by
mutual understanding. In August 1948, during the 14
th
Olympic Game in London, India representative Guru Dutt Sondhi proposed
to sports leaders of the Asian teams the idea of having discussions about holding the Asian Games. They agreed to form the
Asian Athletic Federation. A preparatory was set up to draft the charter for the Asian amateur athletic federation. In February, 1949,
the Asian athletic federation was formed and used the name Asian Games Federation. It was formed and used the name Asian
Games Federation. It was decided to hold the first Asian Games in 1951 in New Delhi the capital of India. They added that the
