Online Class Notes (Tibo)

I would like to watch a lot of activities.
I like volleyball or the swimming or the baseball.

actually they have made a lot of money on these activities because the tourism is rising and a lot of advertisement companies will sponsor the games

All of the things can boost the national economy rising but in the pandemic period I think Japan might not to make money in these activities. because they have invest a large number of the money to the infrastructures. But with the delays they cannot return the money on time because they have invest a lot of money on it.

These days olympics are not the same as before. They don’t allowed people to watch the games offline.

It is not only affected the activities.

maybe next year the pandemic is going to better situation because people are more and more getting the vaccination so I think next the games will be better than this year. Maybe we can allow to watch the games offline.

The first reason is getting the vaccine more and more popular and China is a safe country.

If the government doesn’t change the rules maybe it will lost a lot of tourism.

I think they should be punished, this is a competition. everything needs to be equal . Otherwise they compete with the medical development.
If you have your strong medical you can win everything.

I remember in the past 2 decades, the athletes had taken drugs in the competition and it was reported.
I think in the past many years the Olympic Games is not mature so many strange things will happen in the games but now it is getting more mature.

I think it depends on the nation. If it is rich they put a lot of money in their sports industry.

They have a lot of athletes to take part in the Olympic Games. So they are easy to win the gold or silver because they have more athletes.

they are known for their manufacturing industry, maybe they don’t like to invest money in sports.
