原文
US-born Chinese skier Eileen Gu celebrated her second gold medal at this year's Freestyle Ski and Snowboarding World Championships, which is hosted by the International Ski Federation (FIS).
Committed to representing the People's Republic of China in the next year's Winter Olympics, Gu's name is now enshrined as champion of the women's freeski slopestyle and ski halfpipe competitions.
She hopes that her actions can inspire or possibly change one young girl's life, saying “I wanted to introduce snow sports and free skiing in particular to Chinese people, and particularly to youth and girls… if I can just change one young girl's life and show her one new passion or help break one boundary, then the decision was worth it.”
