Fanny 从小到大都很怕水,但是这个暑假,他决定要突破自己,给自己一个一定要学会游泳的目标,现在我们就一起跟着他去游泳池吧!

Coach: Hi Fanny! How are you doing today? Looking forward to your first ever open-water swim?

教练: 嗨 Fanny,你今天好吗?

Fanny: I’m okay, just a little nervous because I’m not a strong swimmer and a bit afraid of open water.

Fanny: 我还可以,只是有一点紧张,因为我是旱鸭子而且有一点怕水。

Coach: Don’t worry! I’ll be here by your side each step of the way.

教练: 别担心!我会一步一步教你。

Fanny: Thanks. So, what should we do first?

Fanny: 谢谢,那我们应该先做什么?

Coach: Let’s do some warm-ups first. It could be dangerous if you get a cramp in the water.

教练: 让我们先暖身,要不然如果在水里抽筋会很危险。

(After ten minutes of warming up)

(十分钟暖身后)

Coach: Okay, now put on your goggles and take the kickboard. We’re now ready to get into the water.

教练: 现在戴上你的蛙镜和浮板,我们准备要进入泳池。

be afraid of open water (phr.) 怕水

怕水的英文是 be afraid of water?那你就大错特错啰!因为我们所说的怕水,并不是真的怕「水」这个物质,而是怕开放性的水域,例如海水等等,因此我们要在 water 前加上 open 来表示正确的意思喔!

I‘m a bit afraid of open water, so I always bring a lifebuoy with me to the beach.

我有点怕水,所以去海边我总会带游泳圈。

goggles (n.) 蛙镜

准备游泳之前,除了暖身动作要做好,配备也一定要准备齐全!游泳配件包含泳衣、泳帽、蛙镜,它们的英文分别是什么呢?泳衣是 swimming suit,泳帽是 swimming cap,蛙镜是 goggles (通常用复数表示)。

Remember to bring your goggles with you for tomorrow’s swimming class.

明天游泳课记得带蛙镜。

kickboard (n.) 浮板

浮板是用来协助初学者学习游泳,通常两肢手臂放在浮板上,练习踢水,因此英文就是 kickboard,kick 是动词「踢、踹」,board 是名词「板子」,两者合一为「浮板」的意思喔!

For swimming beginners, kickboards can stop them from drowning.

对游泳初学者来说,浮板可以避免他们溺水。

现在 Fanny 准备进入泳池,但她依然难掩她紧张的心情…

Coach: Relax, Fanny. I won’t let you drown, trust me.

教练: 放轻松,Fanny,我不会让你溺水,相信我。

Fanny: I know, coach. But I’m still a little tense…

Fanny: 我知道,教练,但我还是有点紧张…

Coach: It’s normal, but the more relaxed you are the better you’ll swim.

教练: 这很正常,但是你越放松游得就越好。

Fanny: Okay. I’ll do my best. So, are we learning front crawl or breaststroke first?

Fanny: 好的,我会尽力。那我们今天要学自由式还是蛙式?

Coach: Woah, slow down there cowboy. You have to learn to walk before you run. Let’s go through proper breathing first.

教练: 哇,不要急,在跑之前你要先学会走路。所以我们要先学换气。

Fanny: Okay.

Fanny: 好,我应该怎么做?

Coach: First, take a deep breath with your nose or mouth, hold it and move your head into the water. When you’re underwater, exhale. Okay, watch me first then let’s see you try.

教练: 首先,用你的鼻子或嘴巴深吸一口气,憋住然后潜入水中;当你在水里时,用嘴巴慢慢吐出气。好,先看我做一次然后你再试试看。

(After trying few times, Fanny finally gets it)

(在试了几次之后,Fanny 终于成功了)

Fanny: Wow, that’s amazing. I feel a lot more confident in the water already. Thank you, coach.

Fanny: 哇,感觉好棒,我现在觉得在水中更有信心了。谢谢教练。

front crawl (n.) 自由式 / breaststroke (n.) 蛙式

游泳招式百百种,其中最常见的莫过于蛙式跟自由式了!游自由式时是面朝下,很像在水中爬行 (crawl) 的样子,因此称做 front crawl,而游蛙式时则是将手从胸前划出,因此由 breast (胸部) + stroke (划水) 这个两字所组成。

I can do the front crawl as well as the breaststroke.

我会游自由式还有蛙式。

breathe (v.) 换气

breathe /ˈbrið/ 这个动词原意是「呼吸」,若用在游泳方面,指的就是换气,在对话中是用动名词 breathing 表示换气这个动作。 breathe 名词形则是 breath /breθ/,注意母音和最后和舌尖音的不同。

It’s important to learn how to breathe properly in the water if you want to become good at swimming

如果想学好游泳,先学会换气很重要。

exhale (v.) 吐气

exhale 是动词,「吐气」的意思,字首 ex- 有「向外的」意思,而反义词就是 inhale (吸气),字首 in- 则是「向内的」意思。

Before we begin with the yoga class, take a deep breath and then slowly exhale.

在开始我们的瑜珈课之前,先深吸一口气,然后用嘴巴吐气。
