16、ology at the Winter Olympics,Listening and Speaking,Thinking and speaking,Technology at the Winter Olympics,Reference answers I think athletic performance should be seen as the sum of the athletes own abilities plus the technology available to him. An athlete may gain an advantage from the use of te
17、chnology, but gaining a competitive advantage is what sport is all about. If a team can make better wind-resistant bobsleighs, they should be allowed to. After all, every sport is essentially a team effort. You have the athletes, the coaches, the doctors and then you have the designers and engineers
18、. So I think the use of technology in sports should be seen as a kind of progress.,Listening and Speaking,Thinking and speaking,Technology at the Winter Olympics,Reference answers I think the use of technology in sports must be encouraged, but not in a way which overshadows the core skills of an ath
19、lete. When a newly-designed speed-skating suit helped many skaters beat their personal best, this was no doubt an amazing design. But if records were broken too easily with this suit, then the sporting success might be more about the technology than about the athletic skill. In this way, the use of
20、technology in sports is a kind of cheating. So there should be rules in place to ensure that athletes are not gaining too much of an advantage from technology. We need to allow sports to develop and grow through the use of technology while maintaining fair play.,Topic TwoEpidemic of cheating in spor

30、most important reasons for some athletes to cheat is their greed for money.
