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 hips2 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.
听看学
丹尼尔: 快点妈妈，我等不及了。
妈妈: 当心点，孩子。我们去浅水区吧，跟我来。
丹尼尔: 好的，妈妈，我现在能游了吗？我想学蝶泳。
妈妈: 孩子，听我说，首先你得学会怎样吸气和呼气。
丹尼尔: 嗯，知道了。好容易呀。轮到我大显身手了。
（丹尼尔试了几次但是失败了。）
丹尼尔: 妈妈，真糟糕。水到我的喉咙里来了，我差点被淹死。
妈妈: 有耐心点，孩子。让我们慢慢来，把它做好。
丹尼尔: 好的，妈妈，我想我不是游泳的料。
妈妈: 来吧，孩子。你做得很好了。万事开头难嘛。
丹尼尔: 也是，我要加把劲。如果我动作做错了，就纠正我吧。
妈妈: 对，做得好，就该这样。你多聪明呀！你做对了。
丹尼尔: 真的吗？我简直不敢相信。有志者事竟成。
妈妈: 对呀，下一步，把你的双脚合拢，把你的胳膊放到你的头上。
（丹尼尔按雪莉教的去做了。）
妈妈: 好，这就对了。通过髋关节和膝关节用力运动，上下踢你的腿，就像海豚一样。
丹尼尔: 嗯，像海豚一样。我做对了吗？
妈妈: 对了。孩子，你进步了。
