On that fourth of July morning in 1952, the sea was like an ice bath and the fog was so thick that she could hardly see her support boats.Sharks swam toward her lone figure, only to be driven away by rifle shots.Against the frigid(寒冷的)grip of the sea, she struggled on-hour after hour-while millions watched on national television.   Alongside Florence in one of the boats, her mother and her trainer offered encouragement.They told her it wasn’t much farther.But all she could see was fog.They urged her not to give up.She never had…until then.With only a half mile to go, she asked to be pulled out.

Two months later, she tried again.This time, despite the same dense fog, she swam with her faith intact(完整无损的)and her goal clearly pictured in her mind.She knew that somewhere behind that fog was land and this time she made it!Florence Chadwick became the first woman to swim the Catalina Channel, eclipsing(超越)the men’s record by two hours!
