     I like fishing. Every Sunday I get up early and go by bike to a river three miles away from my home.
     This morning, my wife wants to go with me. We go by car first and then walk to the river. After we arrive there, we
both sit down and I begin to fish. In two hours I catch nothing.
     "Why don't you let me try?" asks my wife.
     "All right, " I say.
     She catches six big fish in half an hour. "I'll go first and I am going to cook them for lunch. You can take the bus
home, "she says.
