　　Lesson 25 The Herring

　　第25课鲱鱼
　　Herrings are a kind of fish that live in the sea. They like salt water. Indeed if they are put into fresh water, they soon die. Now the gold-fish which we read about the other day likes fresh water, and it would die in afew minutes if it were put into the sea.
　　鲱鱼也叫鲭鱼,是一种生活在海里的鱼, 喜欢咸水。要是把鲱鱼放到淡水里, 很快就会死掉。咱们以前学过的金鱼却喜欢淡水,要是放到海水里, 过几分钟就没命了。
　　Herrings are good for food. Ask your mother to buy some fresh herrings, and then you can see what they are like. If she will cook some for dinner, you will find that they are very good to eat.
　　鲱鱼是很美味的食品。让妈妈买点儿鲱鱼回来, 就能看见它们什么样了。妈妈把鲱鱼做成菜, 你会觉得鲱鱼肉很好吃的！
　　The herring is covered with scales. It has seven fins 1, and gills and eyes just like those of the gold-fish. Itgrows to a length of about one foot.
　　鲱鱼的身体也盖着鳞片, 有七个鱼鳍, 也有鱼鳃、眼睛, 跟金鱼一样。长度大约有一英尺。
　　Let us cut open a fresh herring, and look into it. We see that, like all fishes, it has a very long backbone 2 made up of many little joints 3.
　　咱们把鲱鱼切开, 看看里面吧。跟所有的鱼一样, 鲱鱼也有一条很长的脊椎骨, 是由很多脊椎组成的。
　　You sometimes find a herring full of roe 4 inside. If you look at this roe, you will see that it is made up of thousands and thousands of little round grains like seeds. These are the tiny round eggs of the herring, and itis only the mother fish that has roe.
　　有时候你会发现一条鲱鱼, 鱼肚子里盛满了鱼子。仔细看鱼子, 会看见它是成千上万个像种子一样的小圆球组成的。这些小圆球就是鲱鱼的卵, 只有母鲱鱼才有鱼子。
