But can we catch bass all year round? C No. Read the notice and think about these questions. What do fishermen need to pay attention to when fishing? What should fishermen do if they catch bass out of the fishing season? They should put it back into the water. fisherman /ˈfɪʃəmən/ n. 渔民；钓鱼的人 3 Background knowledge C1 What do you know about the bass fishing season? (Answers may vary.) The local government established the bass fishing season in order to protect fish and limit the catch. In the picture, the bass fishing season is from 23 June to 30 November. The time of the bass fishing season is different depending on the location and weather. 4 Read the story. Read C2 He was eleven years old and lived on an island in the middle of a lake. On the day before the bass season opened, he and his father were fishing early in the evening. He tied a small bait(鱼饵；诱饵) and practised casting. When his pole doubled over, he knew something huge was on the other end. Finally, he lifted the fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, and it was a bass. The father looked at the handsome fish. Then he lit a match and looked at his watch. It was 10 p.m. —two hours before the season opened. “You’ll have to put it back, son,” he said. “Dad!” cried the boy. “There will be other fish,” said his father. “Not as big as this one,” cried the boy. He looked around the lake. No other fishermen or boats were anywhere around in the moonlight. He looked again at his father. Even though no one had seen them, the boy could tell by his father’s voice that he had no choice. He slowly worked the hook out of the lip of the bass and lowered it into the black water. The fish gave a wave with its tail and disappeared. CATCH OF A LIFETIME by James P.

Read C2 That was 34 years ago. Today, the boy is a successful architect in New York City. He often takes his own son and daughters to go fishing at the same place. He has never again caught such a huge fish as the one he caught that night long ago, but he does see that same fish—again and again. CATCH OF A LIFETIME by James P. Lenfestey 6 Personal touch How do you like the father’s decision? Read C2 (Answers may vary.) I think his decision is good because it is the best way to teach his boy what he should do. When the kid was told to put the fish back, the decision would make a fresh and noble impression on him. The key to success is to remain truthful and honest even if no one is watching. Answer the question. What is the theme of the story? General understanding C3 (Answers may vary.) From the story, we can learn that we should always obey rules, be honest, and make the right choice, even if nobody is watching. 8 Read and infer how the boy felt during the process of fishing. Detailed reading C4 happy and relaxed excited a bit disappointed awful and angry sorry and unhappy Further thinking C5 Q1 Which sentences describe (描述) how large the bass was? “When his pole doubled over, he knew something huge was on the other end. … It was the largest one he had ever seen …” 10 Further thinking C5 Q2 Why did the father tell the boy to put the fish back in the water? Because it was two hours before the bass fishing season started, and it was against the rules to keep fish before the season opened. 11 Further thinking C5 Q3 What would happen if his father allowed the boy to keep the fish? Since nobody was around, he would be excited and proud to keep the fish. However, he would not learn the lesson of following rules and being honest. Besides, he might be less successful today. 12 Further thinking C5 Q4 Why does he often take his son and daughters to go fishing at the same place now? Because it is the place where he has once caught the largest bass. He takes his children there to teach them about the importance of following rules and making good choices. By taking them to fish and sharing his values, he passes on the lesson he learned from his father. 13 Further thinking C5 Q5 What does “that same fish” refer to at the end of the story? “That same fish” refers to the experience and the lesson he learned that night . 14 In groups, discuss the questions. What does the last sentence of the story mean? What is your understanding of the title Catch of a lifetime? It means that the boy has never forgotten the experience in his lifetime. Further thinking C5 It means that the lesson the boy learned from the experience influences him and benefits him all his life./An opportunity or experience that will be unforgettable in one’s lifetime.

He called the poorest children in town to his store and gave one loaf(条) of bread to each of them and told them to come back every day for bread. Rather than be thankful to the baker’s kindness, many of the children fought about who would get the largest loaf. They were not pleased with their present poor life and just thought about themselves. However, there was one little girl in the crowd (人群) who was different from others. Day after day, patiently, she waited for the others to stop fighting, and she took the smallest loaf. Then, she thanked the baker and shared it with her family.   One day, while slicing(将……切片) the bread, her mother found several silver coins inside the loaf. Quite surprised, she showed her daughter what she had discovered in the bread. So, the next day, the children went back to the store. The little girl also returned. She showed the silver coins to the baker and said, “Sir, we found the money inside the loaf of bread that you gave to us. You must have accidentally dropped the coins while you were baking the loaf.   “I don’t make a mistake. These are yours to keep, as a prize for your patience and honesty,” said the baker. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 1．What did the rich baker give to each of the poorest children?                               1．根据“He called the poorest children in town to his store and gave one loaf(条) of bread to each of them ”可知，给他们每人一块面包，故填One loaf of bread. 2．What did many of the children do for getting the largest loaf?                               2．根据“Rather than be thankful to the baker’s kindness, many of the children fought about who would get the largest loaf”可知，为谁能得到最大的面包而打架，故填They fought. 3．Who found the coins inside the loaf?                               3．根据“her mother found several silver coins inside the loaf”可知，她的母亲在面包里发现了几枚银币，故填The girl’s mother. 4．What did the girl decide to do with(处理) the coins?                               4．根据“The little girl also returned.
