Recently a cheating scandal has rocked the world: Lance Armstrong, an American professional road racing cyclist, finally
admitted that he had used performance-enhancing drugs in his seven Tour de France wins. In the past, he persistently
denied the 32 of doping, even under oath, and persecuted former close associates who went public 33 him.
Now, he confesses his years of denial as “one big lie” for keeping up a fairy tale image: a hero who overcame cancer, a
winner of the Tour repeatedly, and a father with a happy marriage and children. Armstrong’s cheat has rekindled the
long-term debate on 34 performance-enhancing drugs should be accepted in sports. On one side, it is argued that
these drugs’ harmful health effects have been overstated, and using drugs is part of the 35 of sports much like
improved training techniques and new technologies. On the other side, it is argued that these drugs are harmful and
potentially fatal, and that athletes who use them are cheaters who gain an unfair 36 and violate the spirit of
competition.
