The extent (程度) of my swimming career was purely recreational, while the competitive swimmers nearby thought nothing of the seemingly simple task of a 500-meter swim test. Pushing myself to finish what I had started, I could only think: why not take the easy way out Earlier that week, I had turned in my first job application at a local pool. Overqualified, I was hired on the spot. However, the tasks were boring: helping confused visitors and measuring the height of children before they went down the slide, those sorts of things. I was capable of more. So a swim test was required, establishing the mere fact that I was not completely helpless in a pool. Midway through, the manager administering the test remarked, “This looks really easy for you. Why aren't you applying to become a guard ” “The thought hadn't crossed my mind.” “Well, life guarding demands more responsibility, strength and respect. Thus the position pays $2 more per hour. Your swimming skills are strong enough. All you need to do is complete a certification class.” Inside I was unsure of myself, but his words inspired me-You never know what you are capable of until you force yourself to do it. Soon I passed the swim test. All left was to practice and learn first aid，CPR（心肺复苏），and procedures for different land and water-based emergencies. Work started soon. A well-intentioned yet anxious feeling in me soon passed. Days, weeks, and months went by without incident; emergencies were rare. The skills and training I had so carefully studied and acquired seemed unnecessary. Today appeared to be another uneventful day. However, shortly after the other guards signaled to the children to exit the pool, I noticed one boy was still in the middle while the others had climbed up. 注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 “Something must have gone wrong with him,” I thought to myself. _____ _____ Having the boy on the floor, I put my ear to his mouth and my fingers at his neck. _____ _____ Extensive reading: Read for the basic elements of the story Basic Elements of a story Who (characters) When (time) Where (place) What (event) Why (reason) How (plot) (feelings, attitudes) I; manager today swimming pool Today appeared to be another uneventful day.
