| 1 | Swimming is really being able to get out from a river you have fallen in without drowning . |
| 2 | The two main swimming strokes are the breaststroke and the crawl . |
| 3 | The breaststroke is very hard to explain in words but I am going to try to do it . |
| 4 | You first float , and then move your legs and hands to a certain position . |
| 5 | Next you move your legs and arms forward , kick your legs out and move your hands round , and then you do this again . |
| 6 | Very soon you find you are swimming . |
| 7 | The crawl is very different . |
| 8 | It is like kicking except you are much more graceful . |
| 9 | You are in a position like this at first and you then kick out and do long strokes with your arms and legs . |
| 10 | Very soon you find you are moving along . |
| 11 | Swimming is great fun and everybody should try it . |
| 12 | It is a life - saver . |
