阅读理解。     Here"s some news about the Olympic Games held in Beijing.
     Rocket man
     No doubt that Dayron Robles won the gold medal in the men"s 110 meter hurdles at the Bird"s Nest last
night. The 21-year-old fellow rushed ahead after rising from the blocks and never forgot his position to come
home a meter clear of the field in 12.93 seconds. His win is the second fastest time in Olympic history but
0.06 seconds slower than his own world record. His success is an expected one because defending Olympic
champion Liu Xiang gave up because of injury.
     Underdogs steal gold
     In a surprising change the US got its Olympic title again after a fierce (激烈的) match at the Worker"s
Stadium. Missing three key players, the US team managed to hold down Brazilian"s crazy attacks in the last
moments of the match. Carli Lloyd scored the US goal making it 1:0 in extra time. In the left minutes the
Brazilians fired as many shots as they could, but all in vain. After being defeated by Brazil 4:0 in last year"s
World Cup, the US team was considered the luckiest team in last night"s final.
