Chinese Heroine - Fu Ming Xia

    The year 2000 Olympic games finished in Sydney last month. Although Hong Kong did not win any medals this year, China won 59 medals, including 28 golds, 16 silvers and 18 bronzes.
    My favorite sports star is Fu Ming Xia. She took part in diving at the Olympics in Sydney and won the competition with gold medals. When she was eight years ago, just a teenager, she won her first Olympic title by more than 49 points. Now grown up, she displayed a powerful will to win again the competition again.
    Why do I like her? It is because she said that maybe she has a lot of gold medals, but she doesn't consider herself special. She considers herself equal to her teammates and a lot of other divers.
