◘ READING COMPREHENSION:
31-35. Read the passage below carefully and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D:
Synchronized swimming is a water sport in which contestants perform choreographed maneuvers set to music. Synchronized
swimming requires agility, grace, timing, musical interpretation, and overall body strength.
Three competitive synchronized swimming events are recognized internationally: solo, duet, and team (consisting of eight
swimmers), although all three events are not always held at each competition. In each event, synchronized swimmers compete in three
categories: figures, technical routine, and free routine. All three categories are also not always held at ach competition.
In the figures competition, swimmers perform 4 of a possible 20 figures, or combinations of movements. A panel of judges awards
points from 0 to 10 based on the accuracy of the performance and the timing, height, stability, and control of the figures. In the
technical routine, the swimmers must perform a set list of elements, or combinations of figures and swimming strokes, in a prescribed
order. In the free routine, swimmers can create their own choreography of figures and strokes. In the technical and free routine, which
can last from two or five minutes each, depending on whether they are in solo, duet, or team competition, a panel of judges awards
points from 0 to 10 in the categories of technical merit and artistic impression. Technical merit encompasses the execution,
synchronization, and difficulty of the elements. Artistic impression includes the choreography, musical interpretation, and manner of
presentation of the performance. Routines are enhanced by swimmers’ use of original and expressive movements, patterns, and
rhythms. The scores for the figures and the routines are weighted according to a formula and combined for each competitor to
determine the winter.
