How do you go to school every day? By bus, by car or by bike? Anyway (无论如何), it must be easy for you to get to school. But for Lucia, it is very difficult. If she wants to go to school, she has to swim there.
Lucia lives in a small village in Western India. She is a student at a high school. There is a small river between her village and the school, but there is no bridge over the river. Some of the villagers go to work by boat. But Lucia’s family doesn’t have a boat, so she must swim across the river to go to school.
Luckily, the river doesn’t run fast.
Every day, Lucia gets up at a quarter past six in the morning. After breakfast, at a quarter to seven, she leaves home. She always takes some dry (干的) clothes and books in a plastic (塑料的) bag with her. When she crosses the river and gets to the other side, she puts on her dry clothes in a small room. Then she walks to school.
She needs too much time to get to school, but she likes to go to school. It’s her dream to go to college (大学).
