Instructions
* Drag the correct answer into all target fields
In    certain    Olympic    sports,    there    has    been    a    substantial    increase    in    speeds    in    recent    Games.    This    has    been    particularly    noticeable    in    cycling,    for    instance,    leading    to    questions    about    how    much    of    the    vastly    improved        is    the    result    of    better    training    and    fitter    athletes,    and    how    much    of    it    is    down    to    technological    advances    such    as    the    use    of    lighter    materials    in    bike    manufacture.    Some    would    argue    that    the    constant    of    sports    technology    is    just    as    important    as    the    ongoing    improvements    in    training    methods,    making    the    sport    more    exciting    for    and    spectators    alike.    For    this    to    be    fair,    however,    it    assumes    the    of    the    new    equipment    to    all    the    competing    athletes,    which    for    reasons    is    unlikely    to    be    the    case    for    some.    In    everyday    situations    a    saving    of    just    0.01    seconds    may    sound    insignificant,    but    in    an    Olympic    context,    where    the    result    can    be    decided    by    thousandths    of    a    second,    it    can    make    all    the    difference    between    winning    and    losing.
