[04:57.85]Most animals can swim right off the first time they go into the water.
[05:06.44]Dogs,horses,and buffaloes do not have to be taught to swim,
[05:13.44]but a man cannot swim until he learns how.
[05:18.85]Learning to swim takes time and effort
[05:24.55]but this is rewarded in many ways when one can swim.
[05:31.15]The fact is that it is a very good form of exercise
[05:36.43]and doctors are strongly in favour of it
[05:40.51]because in swimming all the muscles of the body are used.
[05:46.80]In addition,swimming gives great pleasure.
[05:52.18]How nice it is,on a hot dusty day in summer,to take off one's clothes,
[06:01.17]put on one's bathing suit and plunge into the cool water of the sea,
[06:07.88]and to swim and float until one is tired!
[06:13.26]Moreover,swimming may sometimes mean all the difference between life and death.
[06:21.54]We never know when we may be in danger from water.
[06:27.06]We go on a voyage, and the ship is wrecked,
[06:32.75]or we slip as we are walking along the bank of a river and fall into the water.
[06:39.75]If we can swim,the chances are that we can save our lives,
[06:46.54]but if we cannot swim,we are pretty certain to be drowned.
[06:52.42]Last but not least,if we can swim,
[06:57.62]we may be able to save other people from drowning.
[07:02.30]How fine it is to be able to save another's life
[07:08.02]but how sad to see a friend drowning before our eyes,
[07:14.31]when we cannot help him because we cannot swim!
