Question

3．Olympic medalist Dara Torres，the 41-year-old swimmer，is more than a feel-good story． Torres is as determined and driven in her daily life as she is in the pool． She is dedicated to pursuing her passions and following her dreams-something she hopes to instill（灌输）in her 2-year-old daughter and women and girls everywhere． After all，her dreams took her to Beijing．
