Selecting the Olympic Sports
1 There are 28 sports permitted in the Summer Olympic
Games. The list of Olympic Sports has many of the world’s
best-loved sports on it, such as baseball, judo, soccer, tennis,
and volleyball. This list of sports hadn’t changed in 70 years
5 and the process for changing these sports is long and difficult.
That is why it was surprising news when the International
Olympic Committee (IOC) announced that it was studying
new sports for the list. At a meeting in Singapore in 2005, the
IOC voted on each of the 28 sports from the 2004 Olympic
10 Games in Athens, Greece. Twenty-six of the 28 sports were
selected for the 2012 Summer Olympic Games, which took
place in London, England. The two sports that did not receive
50 percent of the votes were baseball and softball.
Because these two sports were not selected, the IOC
15 started the process of voting for two new sports. The five
sports to select from were roller skating, golf, rugby, squash,
and karate. After the first vote, karate and squash were
submitted to the IOC for the final vote.
To become an Olympic sport, a sport must receive two-
20 thirds of the votes of the IOC. When the final vote took place,
squash received 39 “yes” votes and 63 “no” votes. Karate
received 38 “yes” votes and 63 “no” votes. It meant that
neither squash nor karate would feature in the 2012 Olympic
Games. And sad fans didn’t believe that their sports could be
25 selected for the 2016 Olympic Games.

The legislation follows a year-on-year increase in drone
incidents.
Joana Whitehead
New laws introduced today will restrict all drones from flying
above 400 feet or within one kilometer of airport boundaries. The
legislation follows a year-on-year increase of drones incidents
with aircraft, with 93 reported in 2017. The measures are hoped to
reduce the possibility of damage to windows and engines of
planes and helicopters.
Further laws will require owners of drones weighing 250
grams or more to register with the Civil Aviation Authority
(CAA). The majority of drones users considered it is vital for
drone pilots to adhere to the rules and guidelines of the CAA, a
set of rules introduced to promote safe and responsible drone use.
Drones are here to stay, not only as a recriational pastime, but
as a vital tool in many industries – from agriculture to
blue-light services – so incresing public trust through safe drone
flying is crucial.

double (...)”, the underlined word means that Walker _________
Daniel.
