YOU ARE STILL HERO!! LIU XIANG


Liu Xiang (born July 13, 1983 in Shanghai, China) is a Chinese hurdling athlete and Olympic gold medalist who held the world record in the 110 metres hurdles with a time of 12.88 seconds.
This image potried Liu Xiang tried him best to compete with other athletes and at last won.
The pose, the hurdle can tell us the beauty of sports. Indeed, look at his eyes, what do you find? How do you feel? combatant spirit, explosive power and target . This moment made every Chinese in every corner of the world excited and proud. In my point, He created the myth like Obama. You know, tons of western people said Chinese never have chance to get in 8th in track and field. and fact is that we didn't do a good job in this field .However, when Liu Xiang won the Olympic game, all nationwide celebrated it . He brought something to public which can make people enthusiastic ---Heroism . I do remembered that almost my friends started liking doing sports when Liu Xiang became our common hero. This atmosphere is positive and refreshing.
Unfortunately, Liu Xiang got injurid when our own country held the Olympic game. As we know, this game is not only a competing game , but it also represented the great development of China. Everyone wondered whether Liu Xiang can get gold and all people believed him but as the same time, they also put the huge pressure on him. On game day, He really did everything he can do but fate always not fair. He gave up the game since injury. Spectors are all at the sea.
Indignation, disappointment and tears were expressed . After the game, lots of people thought Liu Xiang lose Chinese face.But , I think Liu Xiang has his right to choose what he want and as a professional athlete, he knows what he should to do. So Liu Xiang is still hero in my heart.
