Learning to swim — Chinese reading, HSK 2

我小時候很怕水，所以一直沒有學游泳。去年夏天，我終於報名了游泳課，每個星期上兩次。

I was afraid of water as a child, so I never learned to swim. Last summer I finally signed up for swimming lessons, twice a week.
教練非常有耐心，第一堂課只讓我們在水裡走路。一個月以後，我已經可以游二十五公尺了。現在游泳是我最喜歡的運動，身體也比以前好。

The coach is very patient; in the first lesson he only had us walk in the water. A month later I could already swim twenty-five metres. Now swimming is my favourite sport, and I'm healthier than before.
