(D)New York Times interviewed Deborah Phelps, head of a middle school and mother of Michael Phelps, who recently got the most medals in the history of the Olympic Games. She remember how her sons elementary school teacher once told her, “Your son will never be able to pay attention to anything.” In preschool, his teachers complained that he couldnt sit quietly. When Michael was in 5th grade, his mother and family doctor discussed whether Michael might have A.D.H.D. (多動(dòng)癥).His parents introduced him and his sisters to swimming early. He practiced hard. By age 10, Michael was one of the best swimmers in the USA. Deborah Phelps watched her son, who couldnt sit quietly at school, wait patiently for hours at a meet to swim a five-minute race. At 11, Bob Bowman, his coach, told the family that Michael would make the 2004 Olympic Games and break world records by the 2008 Games. Phelps made it to the 2000 Olympic, four year earlier than Bowmans prediction. The rest, as we have seen, is history but it is said that Phelps spent about 30 hours a week swimming.
