Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
It's hot out. The usual midday thunderstorm has just passed, and a few kids hanging out on benches around the pool at Miami's Ransom Everglades School finally jump in and cool off.
Eightyearold Gary Kendrick and the others are all here for swim lessons. “They told us to hold on to the wall and kick our feet and, like, move our arms,” Kendrick says. “When I had to swim to one of the counselors,I was really swimming. I do not even know I was moving. ”
Kendrick doesn't have the technique of an Olympic swimmer,but he can make it to the side of a pool if he's pushed,falls in,or just wants to cool off. Kendrick is one of a handful of kids from South Miami to get free swim lessons at Ransom Everglades.
“You know, we have populations of people who lack basic swim skills,” says Julie Gilchrist. “In swimming pools... presumably, you know where the bottom is, you know where the sides are,” she says. “And so one would think that with basic swim skills it should be difficult for an older child or teen to drown in a swimming pool. And yet that's what we were seeing among AfricanAmericans. ”
Swimming pool drowning rates among schoolaged black children are more than five times higher than they are among white kids the same age. Why? There are many reasons,but one big one. “Kids who are living in public housing,growing up where finance is a real problem, singlemother households, opportunities for just having access to a pool are limited. ”
After four decades of work to get a pool built,Codrington is finally getting one,in the heart of South Miami. Codrington calls it a “mixed bag”. He wishes the new pool were
bigger-to accommodate
things
like
swim meets and lifeguard lessons. But he's satisfied knowing that it'll be a place where neighborhood kids can learn to swim.
“This is going to save a lot of lives just as it is. It's going to save a lot of children from drowning,” he says.

Every day is a gift, and if you look forward to spending each day with happiness, wake up every morning with a positive attitude and enjoy a beautiful day!
Set up a daily plan for yourself and ensure that you reserve enough time for your homework. Also, don't forget to spare some time for play!
Stop being lazy and start participating in your life instead of just watching it pass by. Try to do something fun and constructive every day. Read_a_book,_write something interesting in your diary, try a new hobby, spend time with your friends, or just watch your favorite show on television,and you will see how every moment of your day untelevision,and you will see how every moment of your day unfolds. You'll achieve better results,and ultimately greater success.
However,every day will not be the way you want it to be. Some days will be good, while some will be bad. You won't be always happy and smiling. You may come across many challenges. Don't forget to remind yourself to slow down and take care of yourself. In today's busy lifestyle, it is necessary to relax to bring balance and joy back into your life. So, take charge of your life. Enjoy and appreciate the small things around you. Do a good deed and make others happy. Sometimes, doing something as simple as having a cup of tea with an old friend or a family member, listening to a cheerful song, or just writing down all the things that make you happy could indeed turn your day around!
Review and analyze your day before you sleep at night. Reward yourself for completing the set goals and prepare the stage for the next day. This will impact your sleep and overall happiness levels. Plan for the next day, take a good rest, and wake up fresh the next morning!
If you are doing the same things every day,step out of your comfort zone and set aside some time to do things you have never done before. Stretch your limits. Not only will it make a boring day exciting but it will also build your confidence.
