Prepare for Olympics Discussion

These will be the questions for tomorrows conversation. You can think about your answers.

1.       Which do you find more interesting? The Winter Olympics or the Summer Olympics?
2.       Do you usually watch the Olympics? Why or why not?
3.       Which event would you remove from the Olympics? Why?
4.       What do you think is a controversial topic about the Olympics? (I have a few ideas if you get stuck).
5.       Is hosting the Olympics good for a country? What about the tax payer’s money?
6.       If you were in the Olympics, what would you do the night before your event? 
Please read this article about the Chinese Gymnasts to be prepared for discussion as well.
