Going Swimming Safely
Summer vacation is coming.Many students like going swimming in rivers and lakes.But how to swim safely? Here is my advice:Don’t swim in strange rivers or lakes.We shouldn’t go swimming alone.We can’t swim with other students without permission.If we can’t swim,we mustn’t get into the water to save a person.We should ask for help.Sometimes it is dangerous for students to swim.
We live only once,we must cherish life.
