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
