Main idea: 

The 16th Asian Games will take place in Huangzhou China for two weeks.  Many kinds of sports are featured. 

Grammatical points to pay special attention to:

line 2 with 45 teams competing in 42 sports

with + O + OC為表示附帶狀況的用法

這邊因為是45支隊伍主動在42項運動中競爭，因此使用competing喔

line 7 while然而

連接兩個句意相反的子句時會用到的while其實也可以換成whereas。
這是這次文法第十七章的範圍！

line 8 be familiar to

人 be familiar with + N某人對某物很熟悉
物 be familiar to + N 某物是耳熟能詳的

line 14 based on 根據

An emblem and mascots based on goats have been chosen for the games.
