恭喜美國國家代表隊在這次2016里約奧運得到了最多獎牌! 但你知道嗎?沒有人比美國女性運動員從里約帶回更多的獎牌! 這次美國國家隊包括--男姓與女性隊員--一共贏得了121面獎牌，其中61面獎牌是由女性運動員囊括。但是美國女性運動員並不是一直以來都是這麼強勁。美國不斷出現優秀女運動員的原因之一可以歸功於一項突破性的的美國民權立法，該法律使女性有更多機會參加體育運動。1972年美國國會通過了這項被稱為第九條（Title IX）的法律。該法律規定，接受聯邦資金的學校必須為女生提供與男生一樣參與體育運動的平等機會，這些學校在安排教練、設施及其他資源方面要對男女一視同仁。了解更多: http://goo.gl/z5FmxN ‪#‎Womensport‬ ‪#‎Rio2016‬

Congratulations to Team USA! ‪#‎TeamUSA‬ won the most medals in the 2016 Olympics, but no one is flying home from Rio with more medals than the U.S. women. The full American squad -- both men and women -- won 121 medals. U.S. women took 61, U.S. men took 55. American women have not always been such powerhouses at the Olympics. In 1972, a groundbreaking piece of U.S. civil rights legislation, called Title IX, changed history and leveled the playing field for women in sports. Title IX barred sex discrimination in education programs that receive federal funding. This helped revolutionize women's participation in sports at both the high school and college levels. The rest is history...:http://goo.gl/z5FmxN
