少し前の話ですが2ヶ月間の英語スパルタ研修がありまして、
その最終課題が5分間のセルフスピーキングというものでした
テーマは自由で、とにかく5分間しゃべり続ける、という課題です。
もちろん英語で、原稿等は見ないで話します。
このようなお題の場合、自分の仕事か趣味をテーマにするのが一番話しやすく、
ぐっちゃんはスモールボート釣りをテーマにしました。
今回はその最終課題の原稿をここで紹介します。
Good evening everyone.
Today I would like to talk about small boat fishing.
I have been fishing since I was a child.
That's because there was a river and sea near my parents' house.
I have a fishing career for over 40 years.
For a long time, I have been fishing at the harbor or breakwater.
Unfortunately, most people cannot catch fish there, because there are a lot of anglers at popular fishing spots.
On the other hand, there is almost no fish, and the size is very small.
I thought that I wanted to go to the area with a lot of fish.
For that, I thought I should get my own boat.
I got a boat license in 2012, and I bought a rubber boat that could carry an engine.
As a matter of fact, my fishing has changed a lot since I started small boat fishing.
The number of fish that caught has increased, and their size has grown.
I was alone when I started small boat fishing.
As I continued small boat fishing, I have made many friends with the same hobbies.
The friends who have boats are very important because there are a lot of danger in the sea. So, they become eternal friends.
Three years ago, I bought a trailer-type pleasure boat at an auction.
This boat was very good and stable. Therefore I was able to go further offshore.
I can now go to many fishing spots in Sotobo area.
My favorite fish is Hiramasa, which is similar to yellowtail.
Sometimes, their size exceeds one meter or 20 pounds.
If you want, you may be able to catch such a big fish in a small boat.
Lastly, there is one more thing I want to tell you.
The appeal of a small boat is not limited to fishing.
In fact, floating on a wide sea with a small boat will help me be free from worries.
It is a wonderful feeling and I can be very refreshed.
I hope you experience this extraordinary life.
I am really happy to come across small boat fishing.
This is the end of my story. Thank you for listening.
いかがでしたか?
この、
It is a wonderful feeling and I can be very refreshed.
が新型コロナのおかげで現在無くなっているわけです。
早く、この素晴らしい感覚と開放感を取り戻したいですね。
実は、今週は仕事の方でEnglish週間です(;´・ω・)
それではまた おやすみなさい
