Sagot :

The two details that best support the idea that the International Olympic Committee is trying to address mental health by increasing resources for its athletes are:

A. 1 and 2.

The article "'Okay to Not Be Okay': Mental Health takes top role at Olympics" (which can be found online) focuses on how mental health has become a central issue at the Tokyo Olympics, especially after gymnast Simone Biles withdrew from the team finals to focus on herself.

The article mentions other athletes as well who, like Biles, reported suffering due to pressure and isolation, for instance. Then the article explains that the subject of mental health is being addressed by the International Olympic Committee:

"The International Olympic Committee, aware of the struggles young athletes face, increased its mental health resources ahead of the Tokyo Games."

Immediately after making that claim, the two details offered in the article to support that idea are: first, that a 24-hour hotline has been created and, second, that content was created in social media platforms.

In conclusion, we can see that the two details offered are options number 1 and 2. That means the correct answer is letter A. The two details serve as evidence to support the claim that the Committee has increased resources to help the young athletes in regards to mental health.
