John was a farmer. He liked to grow flowers in his garden when he was free. One Sunday morning after breakfast he put on his old clothes and began digging in his garden at eight. He dug and dug. Half an hour later he suddenly found a coin near his foot. He was very glad. He put it in his right pocket. A few minutes later,he found another one. He picked it up and put it in the same pocket. The same thing happened for the third, the fourth and the fifth time... He was very glad and told his wife about it. She was very glad, too. She said,“A thief took away a lot of coins from a shop a few days ago. The polic caught him but they didn’t find any coins.” Then John went on digging some more coins, but just when he began to dig, he felt something cold in his trousers. It ran down one of his legs. He put his hand down quickly—and the coin came into his hand. Now he knew there was a hole in his pocket.

答案: One possible version

Among water sports, swimming is my favorite. There are two reasons. First, swimming can build my body. I go swimming once a week to keep myself fit. Second, swimming is an easy exercise. It is easy to learn how to swim and easy to find a place to do it.

I go swimming almost every day each summer. Sometimes if it is fine in spring and autumn, I’ll be very happy and go swimming with some friends, too. Winter is always very cold,so it’s not easy to find a good place for swimming. But still I can swim in a small swimming pool indoors.
