Notes
overfishing 乱獲、濫獲;
————————–
Last night the hot weather made me think about eel-eating day. I checked and found out that it was on Tuesday this week. I missed it! I won’t be able to eat eel for another year! That’s a joke. I like eel a lot, but it’s expensive so I don’t eat it very often. These days, I don’t really feel like eating eel because there are fewer and fewer eels in the sea. If everyone keeps catching and eating them, there will be no more eels for our children and grandchildren. The same is true for many kinds of fish. I hope that the countries of the world can get together and stop overfishing. (by Prof. Douglas Jarrell)
