Do you agree with the boycott of the olympics.

Question analysis.

Topic:olympics and politics
Issue: countries Boycotting the olympics
Context:past, present, future, global.
Keywords:Boycott-reusing to do something by getting a whole group to do so.
Stand: I do not agree.

Topic sentence 1:
Boycotting , not just in the olympics, is wrong by itself.

Topic sentence 2:
Boycotting the olympics does not solve anything.

Topic sentence 3:
the olympics was made for sports, not for boycott.

Topic sentence 4.
Boycotts of the olympics did not work in the past.

topic sentence 3 chosen.

point:
The olympics were made for sports, not for boycott.

elaboration:
Countries are using the olympics as a chance to express their unhappiness among each other, and boycotting it seems to be their soultion. However they forget that the true essence of the olympics is for atheletes to compete with each other, not to bring politics in and settle disputes. It would be unfair to the atheletes if they had been training very hard for the event and yet their own counrty does not allow them to participate due to some conlifct between the two countries. It will also lead to nothing but the worsening of the conflict.

example.:though there was boycott of the moscow olympics, the event still went on as well and there were even more new world records made there.

evulation:
thus, even though there may be unwilling parties to join the olympics, the event would still go on as many other countries would still participate. thus this would greatly affect those atheletes who were training for the event and yet were not allowed to go. the conflict among them would also still worsen. the olympics was only made for sports, and adding politics will only make the conflict even worse.

Link:
thus we can see that by mixing politics with the olympics would create greater conflict not only among the countries, but also among the atheletes and the government of the country as well. thus i do not agree to the boycott of the olympics.
