美式发音:
Fishing is my favourite sport. I often fish for hours without catching anything. But this does not worry me. Some fishermen are unlucky. Instead of catching fish, they catch old boots and rubbish. I am even less lucky. I never catch anything ---- not even old boots. After having spent whole mornings on the river, I always go home with an empty bag. ‘You must give up fishing!’ my friends say. ‘It's a waste of time. ’ But they don't realize one important thing. I'm not reallyinterested in fishing. I am only interested in sitting in a boat and doing nothing at all!
New words and expressions 生词和短语

Notes on the text 课文注释
1 Fishing is my favourite sport. 钓鱼是我最喜欢的一项运动。在这句话中,主语是fishing,这是一个动名词,由动词加上-ing组成。
2 I often fish for hours without catching anything. 我经常一钓数小时却一无所获。这句话中的catching也是动名词,它作介词without的宾语。动名词也有动词的特性,它可以有自己的宾语。
3 Aftef having spent whole mornings on the river,在河上呆了整整一个上午之后。由于作介词after的宾语的动名词所表示的动作发生在谓语动词go之前,因此,动名词要用完成形式,即having spent。
4 be interested in doing sth.,对做……感兴趣。
参考译文
钓鱼是我特别喜爱的一项运动。我经常一钓数小时却一无所获,但我从不为此烦恼。有些垂钓者就是不走运,他们往往鱼钓不到,却钓上来些旧靴子和垃圾。我的运气甚至还不及他们。我什么东西也未钓到过——就连旧靴子也没有。我总是在河上呆上整整一上午,然后空着袋子回家。“你可别再钓鱼了!”我的朋友们说,“这是浪费时间。”然而他们没有认识到重要的一点,我并不是真的对钓鱼有兴趣,我感兴趣的只是独坐孤舟,无所事事!
自学导读
1.I often fish for hours without catching anything. 我经常一钓数小时却一无所获。
without 通常表示“缺乏”、“没有”:

约翰离开房间时不曾告诉任何人。
2.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。

他没有买糖,而是买了些盐。
副词instead单独使用时一般出现在句尾:
If you don't want a holiday in England, why don't you go to Australia instead?
如果你不想在英国度假,那你为什么不去澳大利亚呢?
3.I am even less lucky. 我的运气甚至还不及他们。
less是little的比较级,意为“不及”、“不如”、“更少”:
Tom has got little chocolate, and Jack has got even less.
汤姆只有一点儿巧克力,杰克则更少。
I spend less time on English than on French.
我花在英语上的时间比花在法语上的少。
(cf. 第8课语法)
4.…I always go home with an empty bag. ……然后空着袋子回家。
with可以表示“有……的”、“持有……的”、“随身带着……”等:
Who's the man with the umbrella?

Who's the man with the beard?
那个留胡子的男人是谁?
Who's the woman with the little boy?
带着那个小男孩的女人是谁?

语法 Grammar in use
动名词(The Gerund)(1)
动名词和现在分词的形式完全一样,都是由动词+-ing构成。-ing 形式作名词时称为动名词。从广义上讲,动名词可以代替名词,尽管它像动词一样可带宾语。像名词一样,它可以作主语:
Dancing is fun. I love it.
跳舞有意思,我喜欢跳舞。
Walking quickly is difficult.
走快是很难的。(动名词+副词作主语)
Washing the car makes him dirty.
擦洗汽车把他身上弄脏了。(动名词+宾语作主语)
动名词也可以作宾语或介词宾语:
Mary is keen on cooking.
玛丽热衷于烹调。(介词宾语)
Congratulations on passing your exams!
祝贺你通过考试!
可以带动名词的介词通常有 before,after,instead of,without 等。用介词+动名词结构可以将两个短句合为一句话,或者将一个从句变为动名词结构。动名词的否定式是在它前面直接加not:
Tom always knocks before entering a room.
汤姆在走进一个房间前总要敲门。
He apologized for not writing to you.
他为没给你写信而表示道歉。
动名词也可以用表示完成时的 having +过去分词结构:
You can't leave the restaurant without having paid the bill.
在没有付账之前你不能离开饭店。

realize 和understand表示这个意思时有时可以互换,有时则不可以。在上面的例句中,第1句不可用 understand,第2句则可以。又如:
I an did not understand English.
伊恩不懂英语。(不可用 realize)
3.interested与interesting
大多数现在分词和许多过去分词都可以作形容词用。常见的以-ed和-ing结尾的成对的形容词有 excited/ exciting, tired/ tiring, interested/ interesting等。以-ed结尾的形容词常与人称主语连用,表示人的情绪、状态、喜好等;以-ing结尾的形容词则常与非人称主语连用,表明事物的某种特征、性质等:
This story is exciting.
这故事激动人心。
