Do you think Michael Phelps got 8 medals because of his simming gift?
just my homework and I want to get people's opinion : )he has a great gift of swimming.......I think.........and hard working

Do you think he got them because he spoke English and ate pizzas?

I think he has a great talent and a great ambition. He can do multiple strokes. In Beijing he won ALL the races he took place in and came back with 8 gold medals.. :-)

He got the medals because he always did his homework by himself,
and for other reasons too.
