Explanation:
The official motto for the 32nd Summer Olympics, also known as the Tokyo 2020 Olympics (which took place in 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic), was actually "United by Emotion." Therefore, statement 1 is incorrect.
Sport Climbing, Surfing, Skateboarding, Karate, and Baseball (and Softball) were indeed included in the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. These sports were added to the program to attract a younger audience and increase the diversity of events. Therefore, statement 2 is correct.
