連續三天下大雨！ 3 Days of Heavy Rain!

傾盆大雨！ Raining cats and dogs!

今天跟昨天差不多，可是好像雨下地更大，真的是傾盆大雨！這並不是偶爾下雨，是一整天啦！倒了泳池以後，我先一個人游了一千公尺，然後換到另一個泳道，那裡已經有一個朋友在游，他的自由勢滿不錯又很快。因此我又游了一千公尺，一直量時間，這次游了十八分二十秒。之後，為了幫助我的肩膀不要感覺太累，有時候休息，但是不休息的時候游地比平常更快（譬如，十乘五十公尺，每次游完了五十米就休息三到五秒）。我今天又游了一點蝶式，那就讓我的肩膀感覺很舒服！最後跟兩個朋友有了一百米的比賽，得了亞軍（一分三十二秒）。今日總共游了四千公尺，真是很過癮。游完了以後，另外一個朋友說我很瘦！我在想，如果可以多吃一點兒，就可以游地更快！

(English translation: Today was much the same as yesterday, except that the rain seemed heavier. It was really raining cats and dogs! This was not an occasional shower here and there, but rain all day long! After I got to the pool, I first swam 1,000m by myself, and then switched to another lane, where a friend who has pretty good freestyle technique and swims fast was already swimming. Therefore, I swam another 1,000m, this time with my eyes on the clock, covering the distance in 18 mins 20 secs. After this, and to help my shoulders not feel too tired, I sometimes took rests, but when I did not take these rests, I swam faster than I normally do (for instance, 10 x 50m with 3 to 5 seconds of rest in between each one). Today I even swam a little butterfly, and that made my shoulder feel really comfortable! Finally, two of my friends and I raced over 100m and I got second place (1:32). Today I swam a total of 4,000 meters and really felt great afterwards. After I had finished swimming, yet another friend said I was very thin. This makes me think, if I can eat a little more, then I will be able to swim faster!)
多吃一點兒，就可以游地更快！Eat a little more, and then you can swim faster!
