At a special swimming pool in Los Angeles, children become expert at holding their breath under water even before they can walk. Babies of two months old do not appear to be reluctant to enter the water. It is not long before they are so accustomed to swimming that they can pick up weights from the floor of the pool. A game that is very popular with these young swimmers is the underwater tricycle race. Tricycles are lined up on the floor of the pool seven feet under water. The children compete against each other to reach the other end of the pool. Many pedal their tricycles, but most of them prefer to push or drag them. Some children can cover the whole length of the pool without coming up for breath even once. Whether they will ever become future Olympic champions, only time will tell. Meanwhile, they should encourage those among us who cannot swim five yards before they are gasping for air. 中文理解：实验证明，儿童在很小的时候就可以开始学习游泳。在洛杉矶的一个特制的游泳池里，孩子们甚至在还没有学会走路时就已经能熟练地在水下憋气了。两个月的婴儿并未显得不愿意入水。 他们很快便适应了游泳，以致能捡起池底的物品。这些幼小的游泳运动员非常喜爱的一种游戏是水下三轮车比赛。三轮车并排放在7英尺深的游泳池底上。孩子们比赛看谁先到达游泳池的另一端。很多孩子用脚蹬车，但多数孩子更愿意推或是拉着三轮车。有些孩子能游完全程，连一次都不用浮上水面换气。他们将来是否能成为奥林匹克的冠军，只有时间才能作出回答。与此同时，他们对我们中的那些游不了5码就得换气的人应该是种鼓舞。 * **accustomed to**：过去常常 / 习惯于；used to do 说过去习惯；be used to 后说已习惯的事，别混用。 * **pick up**：拾起或接人 / 用这种办法；pick up 的意义取决于宾语和情境，不能只记“捡起”。 * **each other**：梦想或想到 / 彼此；of 后可接 -ing；each other 表示关系是双向的。 * **Whether**：不仅 / 两者都不 / 是否；找齐成对结构的两端；不是看见 not only 就一律倒装。 #### 1. Experiments have proved that children can be instructed… 复合句，主句主谓 + 宾语从句结构，从句为主谓结构，被动语态，可以被教导. #### 2. children become expert even before they can walk. 复合句，主句主系表结构，后面是时间状语从句，主谓结构. #### 3. Babies do not appear to be reluctant… 简单句，主系表结构. #### 4. It is long before they are accustomed to swimming… 复合句，主句是主系表结构，后面是before 引导的时间状语从句，该从句直到句末，该句中有一个so…that 引导的结果状语从句，before 从句内 they are so accustomed to swimming 是主系表结构，that 从句 they can pick up weights 是主谓宾结构，两者不同。 #### 5. A game that is popular… is the race. 复合句，主句主系表结构，中间有一个that 引导的定语从句修饰主语，该从句为主系表结构. #### 6. Tricycles are lined up. 简单句，主谓结构. #### 7. The children compete. 简单句，主谓结构. #### 8. Many pedal tricycles, but most prefer to push or drag them. 并列句，but 连接前后两句，前句为主谓宾结构，后句也是主谓宾结构，宾语为不定式短语，由or 连接，第二个动词不定式省略了to. #### 9. children can cover the length. 简单句，主谓宾结构. #### 10. time will tell whether they… 复合句，主干部分还原了正常语序，课文中把宾语从句提前了，所以主句为主谓 + 宾语从句结构，从句为主系表结构. #### 11. they should encourage those among us who cannot swim before they are gasping. 复合句，主句主谓宾结构，后面是who 引导的定语从句，为主谓结构，该定语从句中还有一个before 引导的时间状语从句，为主谓结构. ## 学完这一课 换一个时间、人物或地点，用三句话讲一件自己的小事。 [Nce · 本册复习台](/new-concept/book-2/review) · [三册选择地图](/new-concept/) *译文与解析据吴应时整理资料及本站首轮审校稿；词伙与练习提示为本站学习设计。原PDF第230—231页，2022年3月第1版。*
