英語口語對(duì)話：學(xué)游泳
Daniel: Hurry up! Mom, I can't wait any more.
Mom: Look out, honey. Let's come to the shoal waters. Follow me!
Daniel: OK, Mom. Can I swim now? I want to learn butterfly stroke.
Mom: Honey, listen to me. First, you should learn how to breathe in and breathe out.
Daniel: Yes, gotcha. It seems so easy. It's my turn to show off.
(Daniel tries for some time but he fails.)
Daniel: Mom, it's so terrible. Water went down into my throat and I almost got drowned.
Mom: Do be patient, Honey. Let's do it slowly and correctly.
Daniel: Oh, Mom, I think I'm not the right person for swimming.
Mom: Come on, sweetie, you've done very well. It is the first step that is tough.
Daniel: Right, I'll make up my mind. Please correct me if any of my movements go wrong.
Mom: Yes, well done. That's the way to go. How clever you are! You've got it.
Daniel: Really? I can't believe it. Everything is possible to a willing heart.
Mom: Exactly, next, you should hold your legs together and extend your arms above your head.
(Daniel does it as Shirley tells him.)
Mom: OK, here we go. Then, kick your legs up and down together in a whipping motion generating from the hips and bending at the knees, as if you were a dolphin.
Daniel: Yes, like a dolphin. Am I on the right track?
Mom: That's the way to go. Now, you are flying, my boy.
丹尼爾: 快點(diǎn)媽媽，我等不及了。
媽媽: 當(dāng)心點(diǎn)，孩子。我們?nèi)\水區(qū)吧，跟我來。
丹尼爾: 好的，媽媽，我現(xiàn)在能游了嗎？我想學(xué)蝶泳。
媽媽: 孩子，聽我說，首先你得學(xué)會(huì)怎樣吸氣和呼氣。
丹尼爾: 嗯，知道了。好容易呀。輪到我大顯身手了。
（丹尼爾試了幾次但是失敗了。）
丹尼爾: 媽媽，真糟糕。水到我的喉嚨里來了，我差點(diǎn)被淹死。
媽媽: 有耐心點(diǎn)，孩子。讓我們慢慢來，把它做好。
丹尼爾: 好的，媽媽，我想我不是游泳的料。
媽媽: 來吧，孩子。你做得很好了。萬事開頭難嘛。
丹尼爾: 也是，我要加把勁。如果我動(dòng)作做錯(cuò)了，就糾正我吧。
媽媽: 對(duì)，做得好，就該這樣。你多聰明呀！你做對(duì)了。
丹尼爾: 真的嗎？我簡直不敢相信。有志者事竟成。
媽媽: 對(duì)呀，下一步，把你的雙腳合攏，把你的胳膊放到你的頭上。
（丹尼爾按雪莉教的去做了。）
媽媽: 好，這就對(duì)了。通過髖關(guān)節(jié)和膝關(guān)節(jié)用力運(yùn)動(dòng)，上下踢你的腿，就像海豚一樣。
丹尼爾: 嗯，像海豚一樣。我做對(duì)了嗎？
媽媽: 對(duì)了。孩子，你進(jìn)步了。
