Cevap

London hosted the Olympic Games in 1908, 1948, and 2012, while the origins of the Paralympic Games are linked to a sporting competition at Stoke Mandeville Hospital.
The correct statement accurately synthesizes two key facts from the handbook: London's unique status of having hosted the Olympic Games three times (1908, 1948, and 2012) and the foundational role of the Stoke Mandeville Hospital competitions in creating the Paralympic Games.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the years the UK has hosted the Olympic Games according to the official handbook.
The UK hosted the Olympic Games in London in 1908, 1948, and 2012.
This establishes the factual timeline needed to eliminate options with incorrect hosting years.
2
Recall the origins of the Paralympic Games.
The movement began with Dr. Ludwig Guttmann organizing a sporting competition for spinal injury patients at Stoke Mandeville Hospital in Buckinghamshire, which coincided with the 1948 London Olympics.
This specific historical detail differentiates the true origins from the first 'official' Paralympic Games (Rome, 1960).
3
Evaluate the options against these established facts.
Only the option stating London hosted in 1908, 1948, and 2012, and linking the Paralympics to Stoke Mandeville Hospital matches all historical facts.
Other options contain historical inaccuracies regarding the first hosting year or the timeline of the Paralympic Games.
