Ⅴ.阅读理解
Yang Yang has been a major champion of gender(性别) equality in sports since she retired from short-track speed skating. Chinese Olympic great Yang Yang says being a mum has enriched her role as a campaigner for gender equality in sports.
The mother of two children worked with the International Olympic Committee’s (IOC) Women in Sports Commission after retiring from short-track speed skating.
With 59 world titles to her name, she founded the Champion Foundation in 2009 to promote sports in schools and communities(社区), as well as opening her own skating academy in Shanghai.
“So many parents have told me how sports help their girls become strong and confident at school, how sports teach kids about responsibility, team spirit, positive thinking, etc.That makes my work so much more meaningful,” said Yang.
After Yang was elected as an IOC member in 2010, her compatriot(同胞) (a former IOC member) told her a story from the Doha(多哈) Asian Games, which was the first time that some Middle East countries had sent female athletes to compete, and it was a really big breakthrough for their society.
“As an athlete, I only focused on competing and it was the first time that I had looked at sports from a different angle. Since then, I have been devoting a lot of my time to helping to improve women’s roles and opportunities in sports,” said Yang.
According to the IOC, female participation reached a record high of 48.8 percent in Tokyo, more than double that of Los Angeles in 1984. Beijing 2022 will also see an increase in women’s and mixed events to reach a record—45.44 percent female representation at the Winter Games.
“Because more women are competing in sports, many very talented female athletes have become heroes and stars, which in turn inspires more women and girls to play sports,” said Yang.
