Jeff Gaye, the young
American swimmer, is becoming more and more famous. He has his own teacher,
driver and even his own cook.3. Each time people hear him speak on television,
they can't believe he's only 13. Jeff's father is an engineer but he is also
his son's manager. He says, "I don't make Jeff do anything he doesn't want
to do. He chooses which competition to swim in. But he works hard and wins
nearly every race. I cut out all the newspaper articles about him and put them
in a big box!"
Jeff is very busy every
day because people want to write about him or photograph (给……拍照) him for magazines. "When
I'm at school," Jeff says,4 "我就想像我的同学们一样。That's really important to
me." But Jeff doesn't have a normal schoolboy's life. He often has to
travel for international races and has little free time. "I go to the pool
every day and swim there for at least six hours. When I'm in the pool, I love
every minute."
