How to use tempo in a sentence?

1. Eric Gordon:

   That is very important in every game, to get that fast start and create that tempo, we wanted to play fast.

2. Fabrice Bregier:

   In the long-term, I believe we will move to an evolution of the A380. But you are not the one to give us the tempo, we are the ones to decide.

3. Josh Anderson:

   We knew it was going to be a challenge, i thought we set the tempo at the start of the game and overall played pretty good. A few bounces went their way and they capitalized.

4. Markian Dobczansky:

   The Soviet Union intensively developed The Donbas as an industrial center, it was a place that set the tempo of Soviet industrialization.

5. Andreas Bilicki:

   Doppel, as it stands, delivers two separate rhythms -- one high and one low. The high rhythm essentially delivers a rhythm which is higher than your resting heartbeat, and the lower one which is lower. And it works in a very similar way as to when you listen to upbeat or downbeat music. So, in the same way that upbeat music can excite you or bring you up, make you more alert; doppel does this. And it does the same thing with the downbeat tempo which you feel calming you down and even helping you into sleep.
