Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C
The goals of organized athletics for preadolescent children include physical fitness, basic motor skills, and a positive self-image. The commitment is to the values of teamwork, fair play, and sportsmanship, not to winning.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, D, E
Bicycle safety includes watching for and yielding to pedestrians, riding bicycles with traffic away from parked cars, and keeping both hands on handlebars except when signaling. It is best to ride single file, not double file, and never to ride double on a bicycle.
