Improved technology and equipment

by alivapriyada » Fri Sep 24, 2010 9:22 am
Improved technology and equipment often result in fewer injuries during high-risk activities such as rock climbing and scuba diving. But participant education also plays a large role in reducing the number of injuries sustained during these activities. People who are poorly trained in these activities run a much higher risk of injury even if provided with the latest and best equipment.

Which of the following can be properly inferred from the information above?

A. Training is a more important safety factor than equipment in high-risk activities.

B. People who are properly trained in their activities do not sustain injuries.

C. The safety benefits of the latest equipment can be offset by inadequate preparation.

D. Rock climbing and scuba diving are more risky than any other activities.

E. People with the latest equipment often neglect proper training.
