Question

III. Read the passage and choose the correct answers.

My name is Jim. My favorite sport is fishing. I often go fishing for hours without catching anything. But this doesn’t worry me. Sometimes fishermen are unlucky. Instead of catching anything, not even old boots. After spending the whole morning on the river, I always go home with an empty bag. “You should give up fishing”, my friends said. “It’s a waste of time”. But they don’t know that I’m not really interested in fishing. I’m only interested in sitting in a boat, on the river bank and doing nothing at all!
