Question

2b Look at the photos. Think and write about the differences and similarities.​

Answer 1

In both photos, we see athletes who are starting to run from a low start. Both athletes are photographed in the same pose, as this is a typical position for starting running on short distances such as 100 and 200 meters. However, we can also see some differences, in particular, in the athlete on the left. Instead of legs, he has "stilts" that help him run. Hence, it can be inferred that he is a participant in the Paralympics. Meanwhile, the man on the right does not have any disabilities and might be a runner in the Olympics games.
