Question

Mother always said I was born to swim. I was     41     at the amazing fact. If this was true, then why was I afraid of water? I went to swim every summer, but I made    42     progress. I was worried and blamed myself several times. When I watched people swimming    43    , how I wished I had learnt to swim!

The story of how I learnt to swim is dramatic. One summer afternoon, my     44    and I went to the swimming pool to swim. While he was     45   his clothes, I was wandering along the bank of the pool. Suddenly I heard a voice, “    46  !” and then came a big noise and     47   splashes(溅水). Just when I was     48    the swimmer’s skills, I slipped into the pool! I was so afraid that I     49  at once! But the water kept coming towards me and I     50   lots of it. I was moving upside down and trying to reach the    51   . I was struggling very hard to keep my head     52    the water. A(n)    53    was like a hundred years to me. To my surprise, I was able to keep the style! Just then, my father saw me and he seemed to be   54   . He then said, “Calm down, just     55   your arms and legs like this. Right!” And I     56    it! I finally learnt to swim! You can’t imagine how happy I was and I wanted to     57 for joy!

From this experience I learnt that one’s power is     58   . Sometimes you could show that power in an emergency. If you believe that, you will discover the power     59    within yourself and achieve your goals. And one has to stay calm when it’s     60   . To calm down helps you to think clearly and make the best decision.
