When it comes to volleyball, i will always think of these two people...

             They both played volleyball for the National Team. You know, the National Women's Volleyball Team is way better than the Men's and it won more prizes in the world at that time. Nevertheless, we chinese will still pay attention to the Men's team and be greatly excited for every progress it makes.

              So, when you are going to know about the chinese volleyball, you need to know about the volleyball players. And when you are going to talk about the players, the story between he and she should not be missed.
               He was in the Men's Team, and she was in the Women's. (of course...)

               He was a naive and energetic boy and she was a considerate and lovely girl when they first knew each other. Although she is several years senior to him, they fell in love and had a good time staying together.

               She would receive many messages with greetings and encouragement from him everyday during the days when she was preparing for 2004 Olympic Games. When she got the Gold Medal at last. He couldn't help crying for the victory, for his country, for all the efforts his loved one had made.

              They kept on practicing hard and encouraged each other every day. In 2006, they finally got married and they believed there was a bright future waiting for them.
              But the reality is ruthless.

              In 2007, he had an terrible accident when he was in a friendly match held by Russia, which lead him to be disabled. He couldn't move and speak any more. But everyone knew him was clear that how he missed his wife then, and he was dying to see her.

               She took care of him as long as she had time, even when she was preparing for 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, her last Olympic Games.

                After the 2008 Olympic Games, she was released and she knew she finally had time to stay with her dear husband and took care of him in the hospital, from day to night.

                He now could speak but still hardly move, but he said he loved his wife so much and didn't want to disappoint her so he would strive to make it, to recover as soon as possible.

                 The 2010 Guangzhou Asian Games is approaching, and the Volleyball Contest will be held in our school's stadium.

                 Although i have no chance to see them at that time, i will still keep them in my mind, to remember how much they did for our country and may they can get through all of this and live happily ever after.
                 God bless them——Tang Miao and Zhou Suhong.
