11. Sınıf İngilizce Hazırlık Ders Kitabı Cevapları Sayfa 137
Paralympic athletes compete in six different disability groups: Amputee, cerebral palsy (damage in brain), visual impairment, spinal cord injuries (wheelchair), intellectual disability and ‘les autres’ for the athletes whose disability does not fit into categories like dwarfism. Athletes are divided into classes on the basis of the type and extent of their disabilities in each category. For example, amputee category has its own branches like above the elbow, leg-length difference, etc. The athletes may be reclassified at later competitions if their physical status changes. Moreover, some sports are for just one category like Judo in which only visually disabled athletes can compete. The number and the diversity of the competitors in the Paralympics have increased enormously over the years. In 1960, only 400 athletes from 23 countries participated in 8 sports. At the 2012 Summer Paralympics in London, more than 4,200 athletes from 164 countries participated in 20 sports. It is likely that these numbers will double in a decade.
