Unit 3 A healthy life Ⅰ.阅读理解 (2020·重庆市名校联盟二模) On a bright early summer morning，many young swimmers gather at a local swimming pool in the state of Maryland. They are members of a competitive summer swim team，and that's a regular part of their daily life. As they train and cut seconds off their times，which makes them closer to the championship in the following large?scale(大规模的) competitions，they are getting lots of physical exercise and vitamin D from the sun. However，the benefits of belonging to a sports team are not just honor or health related. You can learn useful life skills. Paul Waas，coach of the swim team，explains，“The discipline(自制力 ) comes into play when you're talking about concentrating on the details that your coaches are saying as it makes you faster rather than just going up and down the pool the same way you have every time. When you focus on what you're doing right and what you can do better，then you'll see the improvement. ” Besides，there is also responsibility，goals and workings within a group. Again，here is Coach Waas. “It's really great！It's so fun to watch from year to year. I've had kids who as 7?year?olds on the team could barely pay attention in practice and were only interested in who was going first. Now they've come back as 8?year?olds，having set some goals and having things that they want to achieve. These skills can help them a lot.” But playing the sports is not without harm. Some can be hard on the body. Young athletes suffer serious injuries that follow them into adulthood. Coach Waas says that in fact，swimming is different from most others. First，it poses a lower risk of injury. The second one relates to how swim teams are structured. Actually，children are not the only ones who can benefit.
