Answer 2

Let's go through each of the sentences and determine if they are true (T) or false (F) based on the information in the article:

1. F - The Highland Games did not start in the 19th century; they have a much older history dating back to at least the 11th century.

2. T - The article mentions that the Highland Games typically take place in the summer, so there aren't any Highland Games in the winter.

3. F - King Malcolm is mentioned in the article, but he lived in the 11th century, not the 19th century.

4. T - The article states that the winners of the 'heavy' events at the Highland Games are strong.

5. F - The article doesn't explicitly say that people in the past wore tartan, but it does mention the historical importance of tartan and kilts in Scottish culture, so we can assume that tartan was worn in the past.

6. F - The article does not mention that only Scottish people can compete in the Highland Games. It talks about athletes from various countries participating.

So, the corrected sentences are:

1. The Highland Games did not start in the 19th century.
2. King Malcolm was not a 19th-century king.
3. People likely wore tartan in the past.
4. Only Scottish people are not the only ones who can compete in the Games.

The other sentences are true as they are.
