Read the passage carefully and select the best answer to each question out of the given four alternatives.The Russian doping scandal continues to cast a long shadow over international sport as the 2018 Winter Olympics begin in Pyeong Chang, South Korea, on February9. In December, the International Olympic Committee banned Russia from competing in the Games following investigation into an alleged state-sponsored dopingprogramme at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.

The announcement did not go down well outside Russia, even though the IOC declared that “more than 80%” of thoseathletes had not competed in Sochi and had been carefully vetted. That the OAR will form one of the largest contingents at the Games, although there will be noplace for the Russian flag and anthem, makes the ‘ban’ seem a bit of a farce.
