Answer:
C. Many athletes might have decided not to attend the Olympics if they were held as scheduled.
Explanation:
So, some basic information we can pick from here are:
- Olympics were supposed to start on July 24th.
- Officials (represented by Mr. Bach) still haven't made the final decision on whether the Olympics will be held.
- National sport federations and athletes are in favor of postponing.
So, from this, we can see that A. isn't the right answer (the decision still hasn't been made at the time).
Also, B. is wrong since on that date the Olypmics should start and not some small celebration.
Regarding answer D. there are simply no evidence to support this claim in this excerpt.
Finally, answer C. can be supported by the claim that sport federation and athletes fought for postponing the Games. If the officials decided against the postponing, athletes most likely wouldn't participate in the Olympics.
