"We knew it wasn't going to be easy," LeBron James said. "We're a competitive team, and we love when it gets tight. That's when our will and determination show."

B. The cycling competitions of the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo featured 22 events in five disciplines. Cycling is one of the events where Great Britain expected to bring in a lot of medals. They failed to win a road medal for the first time since 2004. Nevertheless, Great Britain topped the medal table in cycling with twelve medals (six gold). They were closely followed by the Netherlands with twelve medals but five golds.

C. Twelve teams made the final round in synchronized swimming, but Russians dominated from the start. Russia's swimmers were favourites even before the games started. Made-up to look like big dolls they won the final to the song from the horror film "Suspiria". Russians bringing a tradition of ballet to the pool have taken all the gold.

D. Swimming is one of the easiest Olympic sports to understand, which explains its popularity. At the 2020 Olympic games swimming featured 37 events, including two 10-km-open-water marathons. Swimmers from the USA were the most successful. They got 30 medals, 11 gold. Though their most successful and most decorated Olympian, Michael Phelps, didn't take part. He won 28 gold medals during his swimming career, more than 160 countries.
