1 can't swim because I have a strong fear of water.

Looking back at our childhood experience, I think　　 　　 　　　　1.——

that three reason might explain the fear. The first　　　　　　　　 2.——

is because I was not allowed to go near the water　　　　 　　 　　3.——

when I was a child, for my mother had unreasonable　　　　  　　  　　4.——

fear of it. So, even as a child I was taught see the　　　　    　　   5.——

water as something danger. Second, my eyes became　　　　 　　   　　6.——

bad when I was five. If I put up my glasses in the　　　　    　　  　　7.——

water, I couldn't see anything, but this increased my　　　　  　　   　　8.——

fear. The worst part of my experience was that as a

child of ten I see a neighbor drown. Since then I　　　　　　 　　   　　9.——

have been more frightening.   　　　　　　　　　　　　   　　  10.——

I never set an alarm, so I rarely woke up　　　　    　　 　　　　　　  1.——

before eight during the summer holidays.　　　　　　    　　　　　　  2.——

Usually, I stay in the bed until 8:30 and　　　　　　    　　    　　　　  3.——

often it's 9 before I get up bed. I take a long　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　      4.——

time eat my breakfast because I don't have　　　　　　　　　　         5.——

to rush. Sometimes, I meet one of my friend,　　　　　　　　　　      6.——

Tom. We love cycling but occasionally we go　　　　　　　　　　       7.——

on a long ride in the wild country. I seldom get　　　　　　   　　  　　  8.——

home before six and I'm always very tiring　　　　　　　　　　  　　    9.——

and hunger afterwards.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　     10.——
