文章大意:这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了威廉·邓恩教附近的没有父亲的孩子钓鱼,以此让他们找回内心的平静。

【推荐1】It was hard not to notice the 8-year-old boy across the street who stormed in and out of his own house. He did it often enough that a _________, William Dunn, wondered what was going on in his life. So Dunn asked him.

“He told me that he didn’t have a _________,” says Dunn, now 58, “and I realized there might be something I could do for him.” That something was fishing, a passion Dunn’s father had _________ with him.

Since then, Dunn has taken groups of kids out almost every weekend to fish. Most didn’t have father _________ in their lives and had never fished before. Some were _________ kids who had shuffled from one home to the next.

In the beginning, Dunn— “Big Will” to the kids—spent a good chunk of his _________ from his job selling tires to rent charter boats for the kids. Then, in 2018, he started the nonprofit Take a Kid Fishing Inc. He and a small group of _________ have introduced more than 2,500 kids-most without fathers around-to the _________ peace found on the water and the exhilaration of nabbing a _________.

“I’m able to forget about the __________ when I’m fishing and concentrate on something fun and __________,” says Smith, 21, who is in a foster program for young adults. “Fishing is learning for __________. I’ve learned that I deserve a better life than what I had. Whenever I feel __________ about something, I know it’s time to go fishing.”

Dunn’s own father __________ this past December. As a result, the fishing trips have taken on new meaning for him. “I have even more passion for it because now I’m fatherless too.” That’s why he’s always eager to watch the kids on the boat.

“There’s nothing like feeling that first tug on the line and seeing a kid __________ with a smile,” Dunn says. “I feel lucky to witness that every weekend.”
