为什么选她 ? 学到了什么呢 ?

• We choose Michelle Kwan because she is the most dedicated figure skater in U.S. history

• We both learned that Michelle Kwan  holds the record for most 6.0s. Because figure skating is no longer scored on a 6.0 scale, Kwan's records will stand indefinitely

• We learned that in the 2006 Olympics, due to a hip injury, she was forced to withdraw from competition.

• We also learned that she was the voice of the shopkeeper in Mulan 2
