--- Lesson 20 One man in a boat
独坐孤舟
--- First listen and then answer the question.
^听录音，然后回答以下问题。
--- Why is fishing the writer's favourite sport?
Fishing is my favourite sport.
^钓鱼是我特别喜爱的一项运动。
I often fish for hours without catching anything.
^我经常一钓数小时却一无所获，
But this does not worry me.
^但这并不怪我
Some fishermen are unlucky.
^有些垂钓者就是不走运，
Instead of catching fish, they catch old boots and rubbish.
^他们往往鱼钓不到，却钓上来些旧靴子和垃圾。
I am even less lucky.
^我的运气甚至还不及他们。
I never catch anything -- not even old boots.
^我什么东西也未钓到过 -- 就连旧靴子也没有。
After having spent whole mornings on the river, I always go home with an empty bag.
^我总是在河上呆上整整一上午，然后空着袋子回家。
'You must give up fishing!' my friends say. 'It's a waste of time.'^“
你可别再钓鱼了！”我的朋友们说，“这是浪费时间。”
But they don't realize one important thing.
^然而他们没有认识到重要的一点，
I'm not really interested in fishing.
^我并不是真的对钓鱼有兴趣，
I am only interested in sitting in a boat and doing nothing at all!
^我感兴趣的只是独坐孤舟，无所事事！
