　　Where do people go swimming in your hometown?

　　In Wuhan, people mostly go to public swimming pools if they want to swim. Some of these facilities are pretty affordable. Also some communities have their own swimming pool, and this is truly convenient for residents living there. Then the last choice would be the Yangtze River. Even though this is not so clean and a little risky at the same time, many people actually swim there, coz after all you have to pay nothing for it.

So swimming is definitely something deserves learning.

　　Do you prefer to swim in the sea or in a swimming pool?

　　If I had to choose, I'd favor swimming in a swimming pool because it is safer in the swimming pool but there are many uncertain factors in the sea. The swimming pool is much smaller and not so complex. Besides, there is at least one professional safety guard at the pool in case of any emergency.

　　Do you think it's good to have compulsory swimming lessons for children?
