I'm Joan Croft. I must have to say that I came into nursing by chance. I didn't really like my first job,
which was office work. It was all right-but that's just about all you can say about it. I stayed in the same
place with the same people around me all day and every day. Then I became a singer, which I enjoyed
very much. But after a while the singing group broke up (解散) and I had to start looking for something
else.
     Some girls have wanted to be nursed ever since they were children, but it never entered my head until
I saw an advertisement in a paper. I wrote in and thought. "Oh, well, I will give it a try." One thing I liked
about it was going away from home.
     The training itself is very interesting and most of it is just on the wards (病房), so that you very
quickly begin nursing real patients.
     I lived in the nurses' home when I arrived and I had my own room, which was very nice.
     I like nursing more than I ever thought I would. I'll always carry on nursing. I have got a boy friend,
who is a doctor, so I hope to get married sometime, but wherever I live there's sure to be a hospital in
the place and there is always a job for a nurse.

     Ski-diving is a new sport today. This sport takes you into a wonderful new world. It is like a visit to
the moon. When you are under water, it is easy for you to climb big rocks, because you are no longer
heavy.
    Here, under water,everything is blue and green.During the day,there is plenty of (充足的) light.
When fish swim nearby, you can catch them with your hands.
    When you have tanks of air on your back, you can stay in deep water for a long time. But you must
be careful when you dive in deep water,
     To catch fish is one of the most interesting partsof this sport. Besides, there are more uses for
ski-diving. You can clean ships without taking them out of water. You can get things from the deep
water.
