Pregunta 1 BREAKING THE ICE

Finalizado Michael Sharp visits an outdoor pool.
Puntúa como 1
It's just before 7 a.m. and I'm at an outdoor swimming pool in London, where the temperature the water is only
11 degrees above freezing! Amazingly, there are already eight people swimming.

I had intended to discover, by taking a swim myself, why anyone would want to swim in such cold water.
However, in the end, I decided to ask people instead. Peter Smith has been a swimmer here for three years,
coming every morning before work. "It's wonderful on a cold winter morning", he says, "I thought it would make
me healthier and haven't been ill once since I started".

All the swimmers here say the same thing. They all feel fitter. However, not everyone agrees with them. Some
doctors say it helps fight illness, while others say it could be dangerous, especially for your heart.

I asked Peter what they did on the days when the pool was frozen. "That's easy", he said. "There's a place in
the middle where the ice is thin and easy to break. You have to avoid the sides where the ice is thicker. I did try
to swim there once just to see what it was like, but I found that it was impossible to break throught the ice.

I would like to be able to say that I too dived happily into the water and swam a couple of hundred metres. But
the truth is, fearing the worst, I walked very carefully into the pool, stood there almost in shock and then got out
again after 30 seconds before I became a block of ice!

What did the writer feel about swimming at the pool?

Seleccione una:
A. It made him feel healthier
B. He enjoyed swimming up and down
C. It was as cold as he expected
D. He did not like the ice
