We know from our textbooks that cormorant (魚鷹）fishing is a traditional Chinese skill that might disappear in the near future． 66  ，we still can find some fishermen fishing with those big birds in some parts of China．Let’s  67  one of those fishermen，Wang Yousheng．

Wang and his cormorants live in a small town in Leping，Jiangxi province．He has been practicing cormorant fishing for many  68  ．

Every morning，he  69  his cormorants for fishing．The cormorants stand on a long bamboo pole，and Wang carries them to his little boat．

  70   going fishing，the cormorants stand along the sides of the boat．Wang ties a piece of grass  71  the neck of each cormorant，preventing them from swallowing (吞）big fish．Then he starts off．

Wang is an experienced fisherman，so it’s not  72  for him to find fish．When the boat stops，the cormorants dive into the water to hunt fish．Soon，they come up from the water，each with a big fish in  73  mouths．Wang brings the birds back to the boat and collects the fish．

Wang says he really enjoys  74  with the birds．But as more and more young people in his town are moving to cities to live，he doesn’t know  75  there will be fishermen like him in the near future．
