women and sports阅读理解
留中 In sports the xes (性别) are parate. Women and men do not run or swim in the same races. Women are less strong than men. That at least is what people say. Women are called “the weaker x”, if men want to plea them, “the fair x”. But boys and girls are taught together at schools and universities. There are women who are famous Prime Ministers, scientists and writers. And women live longer than men. A European woman can expect to live until the age of 74, a man only until he is 68．Are women's bodies really weaker?
The fastest men run a mile in under 4 minutes. The best women need 4.5 minutes. Women's times are always dower than men's. But same facts are a surpri. Some of the fastest women swimmers today are teenage (青年人) girls. One of them swam 400 meters 21,2 conds when she was only 16. The first “Tarzan (矫健力大之人)” in films was an Olympic swimmer, Johny Weissmuller. His fastest 400 meters was 4 minutes 59.1 conds, which is 37.9 conds slower than a girl 50 years later! This does not mean that women are
catching men up. Conditions are very different now, and sports are very. rious. It is so rious that some women athletes (运动员) are given hormone injections. At the Olympics, a doctor has to check whether the women athletes are really women or not. It ems sad that sport has such problems. Life can be very complicated (复杂的) when there are two xes!
