The Cod Academy is a year-long program in Maine, one of the New England states in the American Northeast.世界上有渔业学校，也有为渔民开设的学校。鳕鱼学院是美国东北部新英格兰地区缅因州的一个为期1年的项目。 The academy is new. The idea is to train current or former ocean-going fishermen to become fish farmers.这所学院是新开办的，目的是为了培训当前和曾经的远洋渔民成为水产养殖户。 Sebastian Belle is director of the Maine Aquaculture Association. That group launched the Cod Academy with the University of Maine and other partners. Mr. Belle says the academy teaches all about managing a floating farm.塞巴斯蒂安·贝利是缅因州水产养殖协会会长。该协会和缅因大学以及其它合作伙伴共同创办了鳕鱼学院。贝利女士表示，该学院教授的课程全部和渔场管理相关。 SEBASTIAN BELLE: One of the things weve been teaching the students is how to feed the fish and not overfeed the fish.

A partner in the academy, Great Bay Aquaculture of New Hampshire, operates this fish farm.学生们在距离岸边1.5公里远的8个渔箱实习。这些圆形渔箱直径50米，用网覆盖以防止海鸟偷食。每个渔箱能够养殖多达5万条鳕鱼。学院的合作伙伴之一，新罕布什尔州大湾水产养殖公司经营着这个渔场。 Most of the cod will become someones meal somewhere in the world.大多数的鳕鱼都将成为世界上某个地方某人的盘中餐。 Bill Thompson is fifty-nine years old. He served in the Navy and worked as a commercial fisherman. He says the Cod Academy made him a believer in fish farming.比尔·汤普森（Bill Thompson）现年59岁。他曾在海军服役，也从事过商业捕鱼工作。他表示，鳕鱼学院让他成为水产养殖的信徒。 BILL THOMPSON: Even if the wild stocks came back to their fullest capacity, they still wouldnt be able to feed the world. So I think this is the way of the future. And its feasible for a family to run a business.汤普森：“即使野生种群能够完全恢复，也无法满足全世界的需求。所以我认为水产养殖是未来的发展方向，同时家庭经
