Answer 1

1. The first problem faced by swimmers is breathing. he would not be able to inhale and exhale bcoz he might be afraid of inhaling water.
the second one is he may be afraid that he might drown.
2. to overcome the latter problems he must keep practising regularly.

Answer 2

1.He will become more scared of water when he tries to learn swimming.The other children who have come to learn swimming will make fun of that child and the trainer will also scold him.
2.I would tell him that there is nothing to be scared of water.I will ask him/her what happens to him/her when he/she gets into water or when she/he sees water.I will also learn swimming along with him/her to provide support.I will advise that child to have more practice in swimming .This will probably help that child.
