He must be crazy to let Tom swim the breaststroke(蛙泳)”When the coach told him about the date and place of the state swimming meeting for the boys of 15 and under, Jed was sure he would be swimming the breaststroke. He even told hisfamily that the team couldn’t win the event without him.When the coach chose Tom Timmons, the new boy from Spring-field, to swim the breaststroke, Jed could hardly believe it. Coach Robed’s son told Jed he could swim on the relay team, but that offered little consolation. “I may leave the team,”he told Rob. “I’d rather not swim at all than be on the relay team.”“I don’t know whether you should do that or not,” Rob said. “we need you on the relay team. Of course, if you say you won’t swim at all, the coach may change his mind and let you swim the breaststroke. ”Jed left Rob and headed towards home.
