Answer 1

While ice skating, Alice slipped and injured her knee. What is one way Alice might have prevented this injury?

a. by resting periodically to maintain her strength (incorrect, accidents can still happen).

b. by learning to skate better so she can be more careful (through the learning process, she is bound to fall again.)

c. by wearing safety equipment appropriate to the activity (Correct. When practising skating, falls are bound to happen, thus safety equipment needed)

Answer 2

By wearing safety equipment appropriate to the activity

Step-by-step explanation

When skating, a person might fall as part of the learning process thus it is advisable that we apply skating safety tips from the word go. Put on the correct safety gears such as wearing a helmet and gloves when performing the process. The blades should be sharpened before hitting the ice and when you fall get up quickly by using your knee first and hands support.
