be interested in 對...感興趣, 第二部分 TEXT , ?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 really interested in fishing. I am only interested in sitting in a boat and doing nothing at all!
, 參考譯文 , ?釣魚是我特別喜愛的壹項運動. 我經常壹釣數小時卻壹無所獲, 但我從不為此煩惱. 有些垂釣者就是不走運, 他們往往魚釣不到, 卻釣上來些舊靴子和垃圾. 我的運氣甚至還不及他們. 我什麽東西也未釣到過 -- 就連舊靴子也沒有. 我總是在河上呆上整整壹上午, 然後空著袋子回家. “妳可別再釣魚了!” 我的朋友們說, “這是浪費時間. “然而他們沒有認識到重要的壹點, 我並不是真的對釣魚有興趣, 我感興趣的只是獨坐孤舟, 無所事事!
