No flying fish broke the surface of the sea and there was no scattering (散落) of bait (诱饵) fish in the water. But as the old man watched, a small tuna (金枪鱼) rose in the air, turned and dropped head first into the water. The tuna shone silver in the sun and after he had dropped back into the water, more tuna started jumping out of the water in all directions, chasing after the bait. They were circling it and driving it. “If they don’t travel too fast, I will get into them.” the old man thought, and he watched the tuna making the water white and the bird diving down to catch the bait fish that were forced to the surface in their fear. “The bird is a great help,” the old man said. Just then, the fishing line at the back of the boat grew tight under his foot. He dropped his oars (船桨) and felt the weight of the tuna, and began to pull it in. When he pulled, he could see the blue back of the fish in the water and its golden sides. Finally, he lifted the fish into the boat. The tuna lay in the boat in the sun. He was small and shaped like a bullet. His big eyes stared when he hit against the floor of the boat with his tail.
