新概念英语第二册逐句精讲：第94课 未来的冠军

Lesson 94 Future champions

新概念英语2课文内容：

Experiments have proved that children can be instructed

in swimming at a very early age. At a special swimming pool

in Los Angeles, children become expert at holding their

breath under water even before they can walk. Babies of two

months old do not appear to be reluctant to enter the water.

It is not long before they are so accustomed to swimming that

they can pick up weights from the floor of the pool. A game

that is very popular with these young swimmers is the

underwater tricycle race. Tricycles are lined up on the floor

of the pool seven feet under water. The children compete

against each other to reach the other end of the pool. Many

pedal their tricycles, but most of them prefer to push or

drag them. Some children can cover the whole length of the

pool without coming up for breath even once. Whether they

will ever become future Olympic champions, only time will

tell. Meanwhile, they should encourage those among us who

cannot swim five yards before they are gasping for air.
