PART 3: READING
A. Read the following text about weightlifting and choose the correct answer accordingly.

An Amazing Sport
Weightlifting is the sport of lifting the maximum possible weight. It requires a combination of power
(strength and speed), technique, flexibility and consistency. When all these qualities are combined
the result is fantastic. Weightlifting is one of the most exciting sports at the Olympic Games.
To be a weightlifter you need to have very strong muscles. Lifting the weight requires you to use
every muscle in your body, but your leg muscles must be especially strong. To train these muscles
weightlifters lift very heavy weights in training. Top weightlifters lift about 20,000 kilograms a day.
That is the same weight as 15 mid-sized cars!
Training for weightlifting is usually done in a gym. First, a weightlifter warms up by running, rowing or
cycling. Next, they lift some lighter weights to prepare their muscles. Finally, they load a steel bar with
hundreds of kilograms of steel plates and go for it! While they lift, their coach is watching them to
make sure they use the proper technique. Technique is very important because you can get injured
badly if you lift the wrong way.
Since the invention of the sport, competitive weightlifting has become a popular spectator sport. The
audience appreciates the high level of skill and years of training required to compete. Seeing a small
person lift a huge weight is amazing. Seeing a big person lift an even huger weight is amazing, too!
Spectators also enjoy the tense atmosphere created when lifters try to lift heavy weights. Can they lift
it? That is the question that makes weightlifting so enjoyable to watch.
