【题目】Competition in the Olympics should be between athletes who use their own strength or speed.If some athletes don’t follow the rules, it ruins the fun for everyone connected with the game.It also gives an extremely unfair advantage to the athlete using the drug.
———Jim from Atlanta
Drug use among top athletes has long been a problem.Without drug testing, the Olympics would be about who uses the most drugs, not who trains the hardest and has the most athletic skills.Also drugs hurt people and they could even kill people.
———David from Houston
Why should athletes be allowed to compete when it’s not really them who are actually competing? It’s the drugs that do all the work.Athletes who use drugs are like runners with skates. It’s cheating and irresponsible, which must be strictly forbidden.It’s unfair to other competitors who don’t use drugs.
———Bruce from Chicago
Most sports athletes are held to a standard of being drug free.Olympians should not be held any differently.They take part in highly competitive sports for their country and win medals for it.Testing the athletes for drugs must be done in every country and every sport.No drug testing would be unfair to people who don’t use drugs.
———Sam from Los Angeles
