[00:00.760]--- Lesson 20 One man in a boat [00:08.200]--- First listen and then answer the question. [00:14.440]--- Why is fishing the writer's favourite sport? [00:21.520]Fishing is my favourite sport. [00:25.560]I often fish for hours without catching anything. [00:31.240]But this does not worry me. [00:34.240]Some fishermen are unlucky. [00:37.680]Instead of catching fish, they catch old boots and rubbish. [00:43.640]I am even less lucky. [00:46.800]I never catch anything -- not even old boots. [00:51.640]After having spent whole mornings on the river, I always go home with an empty bag. [01:00.040]'You must give up fishing!' my friends say. 'It's a waste of time.'^“ [01:08.360]But they don't realize one important thing. [01:13.480]I'm not really interested in fishing. [01:17.200]I am only interested in sitting in a boat and doing nothing at all! [01:24.200]--- end
