一些单词不认识～～
Jim Thorpe, an American Indian, is generally accepted as the greatest all-
round athlete of the first half of
the 20th century. Yet the man, who brought glory to his nation, had a
heartbreaking life. What caused his
sadness and poverty?

5. USA Taekwondo
2008 Olympic medal tally: 1 silver, 2 bronze
2008 spending, based on audit: $2.78 million
Spending per medal: $926,666
The U.S. taekwondo team had a smaller budget than both its boxing ($5.25
million) and diving ($2.9 million) counterparts yet took home three times
more medals in Beijing than those sports combined. Ain't that a kick?
4. USA Fencing

民主体制不花钱，有没有？业余运动员对中国的举国体制不公平，有没有？

The U.S. Olympic Committee shelled out more than $232 million in 2008 to
help American athletes win 110 medals in Beijing -- the site of the previous
Summer Olympic Games. That's $2.1 million per medal, but doesn't include
the cash kicked in by each sport's governing body from s... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 10425 | 8 China’s People’s Daily newspaper topped off its coverage of the London
Olympics on Monday pronouncing that the Communist Party’s leadership had
sent congratulations to the country’s Olympic team.
Then the Communist Party mouthpiece suggested that the Chinese shouldn’t
compete with United States because Westerners have bigger chests and heads.
This type of coverage a day after the London Olympics closing ceremonies
fails to mention what the world saw throughout much of the Games: China was

that route.
26. Weightlifting -- I moved a few weeks ago. Being unable to lift heavy
things is not as difficult as it sounds.
25. Beach volleyball -- There's only one thing that's hard to do on the
beach and it ain't volleyball.

He has placed 6th,8th,10th,12th,15th in the county's 7-8 y pentathlon race.
I am pretty happy since this is his first official race for three of the
events. And kids in front of him are mostly 8 y old. |

发帖数: 9308 | 13 好多thon，看起来少了一个pentathlon，不过这个太复杂了，不是专业的弄起来太费事。
想着有没有不带自行车的thlon，还真找到这个Aquathlon。可惜有名无实，没啥正经比
赛，都是500米游泳，5千米跑步的非耐力娱乐项目。看来不玩车的话，游泳也只好自娱
自乐了。
