钓鱼是我最喜爱的运动。
Fishing is my favourite sport.
我经常一钓就是几个小时,却什么也钓不到。
I often fish for hours without catching anything.
但这并不让我担心。
But this does not worry me.
有些钓鱼的人运气不好。
Some fishermen are unlucky.
他们非但没钓到鱼,反而钓到了旧靴子和垃圾。
Instead of catching fish, they catch old boots and rubbish.
我甚至更倒霉。
I am even less lucky.
我从来什么都钓不到——甚至连旧靴子都钓不到。
I never catch anything -- not even old boots.
在河边耗费了整个上午之后,我总是空手而归。
After having spent whole mornings on the river, I always go home with an empty bag.
"你必须放弃钓鱼!"我的朋友们说。"这是浪费时间。"
'You must give up fishing!' my friends say. 'It's a waste of time.'
但是他们没有意识到一件重要的事。
But they don't realize one important thing.
我其实并不真的对钓鱼感兴趣。
I'm not really interested in fishing.
我只是对坐在船里什么都不做感兴趣!
I am only interested in sitting in a boat and doing nothing at all!
