My hobby is fishing. I am fond of going fishing, for it is both interesting and iastructive-It tempers my willpower. Last Sunday I went fishing with my friend, He Ping. We started at daybreak. After three hours' cycling, we arrived at the outskirts of Hefei and came to a stream. The water is clear and clean. One can see fish swimming. The meadow sprinkled with buttercups slopes to the stream. It is a good place for fishing.
In a few minutes everything was ready. Putting the bait of earthworms on the hook, dropping the hue into the strum, we sat there fishing with rod in hand. An hour passed. I did not catch a single fish. I lifted the fishing rod time and again. Time and again I was disappointed. There was no fish on the hook. On the other side of the stream, He Ping had caught several fish, one of which was very big.
"How comes it that you catch fish casily while it is so difficult for me?" I asked.
"it's easy. Only you need Io be patient." He Ping answered. "Make sure that you lift the fishing rod when the whole flat has sunk. I'm sure a fish will greet you on the hook."
After a while the floats were swinging. I kept my breath and waked. The floats became still again. "Come on my hook, dear fish." I was saying to myself. In a moment the floats swang again and then sank abruptly, Just at that moment I lifted my fishing rod. To my delight I caught a fish. and then, I took it off the hook.
This gave me a great revelation：Stamina is what we need to achieve success. And it is more important to young people who usually lack it.
我的爱好是钓鱼。我喜欢去捕鱼，因为这既有趣又能磨炼我的意志。上周日我和我的朋友何平去钓鱼了。黎明时动身。经过三个小时的自行车，我们来到郊外的合肥，来到了一条小溪。水是清澈的。你可以看到鱼游泳。草地上点缀着金凤花斜坡流。那是个钓鱼的好地方。
几分钟后，一切都准备好了。把蚯蚓鱼饵的钩，放弃色调到舱底，我们坐在那儿钓鱼杆在手。一个小时过去了。我没有钓到一条鱼。我举起钓竿，一次又一次。我一次又一次失望。没有鱼上钩。小溪的对面，何平已钓了好几条鱼，其中之一是非常大的。
“怎么你钓鱼那么容易，而对我却那么难?”我问。
“这很容易。只是需要耐心。”何平回答。“确保你举起钓竿时，整个单位已经沉没。我相信鱼会迎接你的钩。”
过了一会儿，浮子在晃动。我把我的呼吸，唤醒。浮子又不动了。”来吧我的钩，亲爱的鱼。”我对自己说。一会儿，浮子又动了，接着突然下沉，就在那一刻我举起钓竿。让我高兴的是我钓到的鱼。然后，我摘了鱼钩。
这给了我很大的启示：毅力是我们需要取得成功。这对于缺乏毅力的年轻人更为重要。
