By Kathleen W. Redman

¹     A very popular competition in the Winter Olympics is ice skating. There are many different kinds of skating competitions. One of them is called pairs skating. In Olympic pairs skating, a man and a woman skate together. It is a very difficult sport. The two skaters must work closely together.
