My Role Model
My role model is Evgenia Medvedeva, a famous Russian figure skater.
She was born on 19 November 1999 in Moscow, Russia, and now she lives in Canada still representing Russia. People often call her Zhenya because they love her and because she is young, she is 20 years old.
Zhenya has won a lot of medals — she is a two-time Olympic silver medalist, a two-time world champion and a two-time European champion. She is one of the most famous athletes in the world. Evgenia has lots of fans all over the world. In America they sometimes call her Janny and for the Japanese she is "Medo-chan". People like Zhenya because she is very artistic and full of life and energy. She has a great sense of humour. She likes to watch animes and listen to K-pop, and so do I. Zhenya and I have the same hobby which is drawing.
I admire Evgenia's strength of mind, dedication and ability to work hard. I like her life motto, which is "Never give up", and I think Evgenia is a great motivator!
Мой образец для подражания - Евгения Медведева, известная российская фигуристка.
Она родилась 19 ноября 1999 года в Москве (Россия), а теперь она живет в Канаде, по-прежнему представляя Россию. Люди часто называют ее Женей, потому что любят ее и потому что она молода, ей 20 лет.
Женя завоевала много медалей - она двукратный серебряный призер Олимпийских игр, двукратная чемпионка мира и двукратная чемпионка Европы. Она является одним из самых известных спортсменов в мире. У Евгении много поклонников по всему миру. В Америке ее иногда называют Дженни, а для японцев она «Медо-чан». Людям нравится Женя, потому что она очень артистична, полна жизни и энергии. У нее отличное чувство юмора. Она любит смотреть аниме и слушать K-pop, и я тоже. У нас с Женей одинаковое увлечение —рисование.
Я восхищаюсь Жениной силой духа, самоотдачей и работать. Мне нравится ее жизненный девиз «Никогда не сдавайся», и я думаю, что Евгения - отличный мотиватор!
