今天中午午饭后，我们在教室举行了一次别开生面的钓鱼比赛。规则是在五分钟之内钓的鱼最多者胜。
After lunch today, we had a new fishing competition in the classroom. The rule is to catch the most fish in five minutes.
“比赛开始！”老师一声喊，我们就急急忙忙地开始了。我们五六个人围在桌子般大小的红色水盆旁，教室里遍是呐喊和助威声。我手握竹竿，平时冷静的我现在的心也提到了嗓子眼。我屏住呼吸，把铁钩提到金鱼那个银环旁，但是鱼钩碰了银环一下滑开了。
"The game begins!" As soon as the teacher shouted, we started in a hurry. Five or six of us are surrounded by a red water basin the size of a table. The classroom is full of shouts and cheers. I hold the bamboo pole in my hand, and my calm heart also mentions my voice. Holding my breath, I lifted the iron hook to the silver ring of goldfish, but the hook touched the silver ring and slipped away.
我顿时像泄了气的皮球。可我还是不灰心用钩子钩去，可是钩到了小鱼嘴巴。我心想：只要我不死心，我就不信我钓不着。我瞄准环，用力钩去，套到了，我高兴地欢呼起来。“停！”老师喊道。
I was like a deflated ball. But I still don't get discouraged to use the hook, but it catches the fish's mouth. I thought: as long as I don't give up, I don't believe I can't catch. I aimed at the ring, hook it hard, and when I got there, I cheered happily. "Stop!" Cried the teacher.
我只钓了一条，我输了。但从中得出一个道理：做任何事，只要专心研究，改正并总结失败的原因，就没有做不到的。
I only caught one. I lost. But we can draw a truth from it: as long as we concentrate on research, correct and summarize the reasons for failure, we can't do anything.
