Basic Drills

Read the following paragraphs and the sentence simplification questions that go with them. The correct
answers are provided in bold. Then answer the questions.

Of all sports injuries, the most common are due to damage to soft tissue. Such injuries often
involve the knees, shoulders, elbows, and wrists. Many times, a small injury to soft tissue may
make an athlete compensate by altering his or her normal movements to protect the injured
area. This can cause trouble because the change in normal movement may put a sudden
strain on uninjured areas, resulting in further injuries for the athlete. In this way, one injury
will often lead to another, with each new injury becoming progressively more serious.
Kinesiologists, or coaches with special knowledge of kinesiology, can predict the
complications that may arise from altering normal movements and thus avoid muscle strains,
torn rotator cuffs, ligament damage, and herniated tissue.
