我和游泳 Me and Swimming
Now, I want to share one of my experiences with you. Yeah, it's something about one of my favorite sports——swimming. However, I have always afraid of swimming until I graduated from Senior High school. Now, I will tell you why I changed my ideas. When I was a child, I often went fishing with my father. Unluckily, an accident occurred to me one day. I fell into the river suddenly and I shouted to my father “Father, help! help!”(Of course, I hadn't learned swimming skills at that time.)Then my father jumped into the river and saved me from the river as quickly as he could. There was nothing with me but I have no desire to swim anymore. I just too scared to touch water in rivers or swimming pools. I certainly lost my courage. My parents wanted to teach me how to swim but I refused. When I graduated from Senior High school, I thought I should change something in my life. I was an adult and I should have courage to face all the things I used to be afraid. I should try to swim. I got over my frightening to learn swimming skills and I made it. Since then swimming becomes one of my favorite sports. I prefer swimming in swimming pools than rivers. The reason is simply. First, it's dangerous to swim in rivers because my swimming skills are poor. Second, swimming pools have the locker room where I can change my business clothes to my swimsuits. If it possible, I would like to go swimming with my friends. |
