If a substitution occurs after the first shot, the replacement fires all of the shots that would have been fired by the original competitor.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Not specified
• D. Only the replacement fires the first shot

Answer: (B)

When a substitution happens, the replacement takes over from that point and fires the remaining shots of the stage. The first shot has already been fired by the original competitor, so the replacement cannot fire that shot. Therefore the replacement only shoots the rest of the shots that would have been fired after the substitution, not all of the shots the original would have fired in total. For example, if there are six shots in a stage and substitution occurs after the first shot, the replacement would fire the remaining five shots. This is why the statement is false.
