一条小梭鱼正在为几天来的肚子疼而抱怨,他的爸爸束手无策,只能在海底游来游去,试图找出造成他儿子难受的原因。这时他注意到了一只正在转圈的海龟。梭鱼爸爸问道:打扰一下,你为什么要转圈呢?哦,幸亏碰到你了,你能帮我弄掉这根缠住我的渔线吗?海龟说道。
A young barracuda is complaining that his tummy has been very sore for quite a few days now. His dad is desperate to help him and looks around the seabed for any clues to what could have caused his sons distress. He spots a turtle swimming in circles.Excuse me, why are you swimming in circles? asks the dad.Oh, thank goodness you came along, says the turtle. Can you please help me get rid of this fishing line Im stuck in?
梭鱼爸爸回答道:什么渔线,我什么都没看到。嗯,人们把渔线做成透明的,这样鱼就看不到它了。它很结实,一旦你被它缠住了,就无法摆脱。让我靠近看看。梭鱼爸爸回答道,是的,我看到了,这条线割伤了你的脖子和腿。伤得很严重!让我看看能不能帮你摆脱它。
What fishing line? I cant see anything, replies the barracuda.Well, people make fishing line transparent so fish cannot see it. They also make it so strong that once you get caught in it, theres no escape.Let me take a closer look, says the barracuda.Yes, I see the line wound around your neck and your legs. That must hurt! Let me see if I can set you free.
