HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT 1
Translate the following passage into Vietnamese.
Karsten Warholm crushed his own 300-meter hurdles world best time in
front of a home crowd in Oslo, Norway on Wednesday, clocking 32.67
seconds.
Warholm set the previous mark of 33.05 seconds in April, but bettered that
time by almost half a second at the Oslo Diamond League in Bislett
Stadion.
The Olympic gold medalist and three-time world champion surged past
American Rai Benjamin on the home straight and celebrated by roaring and
ripping off his top.
Warholm was competing against reigning Olympic 400m hurdles champion
Benjamin and Brazil’s former world champion Alison dos Santos for the first
time over 300m hurdles – a lesser-seen event compared to the 400m.
Benjamin crossed the line in 33.22, holding off a late challenge from dos
Santos, who was third in 33.38. Those two, alongside Warholm, will return
to the track on Sunday for a showdown in the 400m hurdles.
World Athletics announced earlier this year that the 300m hurdles
would become an official event at its competitions, though conditions for
setting the inaugural world record – as opposed to a world best time – will
be decided “once the popularity of the event (has) reached a meaningful
level.” (193 words)
