OK, let's get the last #quiz over with:
📋 The race was organized by the National ………………………… Association
🔴 Athletics ✅
🔵 Athletic
Yes, it's "Athletics", not "athletic". The latter relates to someone being "physically strong and good at running, jumping etc"; an "Athletic Association" would rather mean a big group of individuals who are fit, able to kick some shit, and so on.
In the above example we talk about "athletics" as sports, such as running, jumping, throwing the javelin etc. It's strictly noun+plural, not an adjective like "athletic". An association of some sports, not "a fit association".
=== === === ===
💡 Choose the one from the 2 seemingly OK options:
📋 This article was about ……………… French people and their reluctance to learn foreign languages.
🔴 typical
🔵 average
