Fishing November 6th, 2008 fish fish用作可数名词指“鱼的条数”时单数和复数形式相同（two fish两条鱼），指“鱼的种类”时复数形式才为fishes（two fishes两种鱼）；fish用作不可数名词时无复数形式，应作“鱼肉”解（Help yourself to some fish．随便吃些鱼。）；fish用作动词时，它的含义又与“钓（捕）鱼”有关（go fishing去钓鱼）。  在英语口语里，fish还常常被用来指“人”，类似于汉语里的“家伙、东西”等。如：a poor fish（可怜虫），a big fish（大亨），a cool fish（无耻之徒），a strange fish（奇人、怪人），a loose fish（放荡鬼）等。但必须注意的是，fish用来指人时形象虽然鲜明，但往往含有贬义。  Great Fun /u/vw/1248789 /v_show/id_XNDI0MzMzMDg=.html Going Fishing pond 池塘 bait n. 鱼饵 earth worm 蚯蚓 sashimi n. 寿司 soy sauce (尤指日本和中国烹饪用的)酱油 hook n. 鱼钩 grill n. 烤架 barbecue n. 烤架；烧烤 Going Fishing Daniel: Daddy, whats next?

Benjamin: I dont think fish would like them. Instead, they love earth worms. Daniel: So lets go and catch earth worms! Benjamin: OK. (After a short while, theyve caught many earth worms.) Benjamin: I think thats enough for today. Lets go. (More than two hours passed; Daniel gets impatient.) Going Fishing Daniel: Daddy, do you think were gonna catch any fish today? Weve been fishing here for more than two hours, and we get nothing. Benjamin: Thats because youre talking to me all the time. Be patient, or there will be no chance to have sashimi for dinner today. Daniel: I love sashimi. Did mom bring any soy sauce for that? Benjamin: I suppose she did. Be quiet. There is a fish on the hook. Here it is. Look, a big one. Daniel: Cool. Hey, Ive got an idea. Why dont we cook it separately? Half for sashimi, and the other half for grill. Benjamin: Great idea. But the fact is we have no barbecue with us. Moreover, the sashimi will be great. So why do we bother to waste time on barbecuing the fish? Daniel: Well, all right. There is nothing to complai
