Dear Editor,
    Recently we have carried out a survey—To whom do you go when in trouble? 61% of the students surveyed select friends or schoolmates as their ideal listeners when they have trouble. The reason for it is that they are in the same age group and have a better understanding of each other. 22% choose teachers and parents to talk to for the reason that teachers and parents are rich in life and educational experiences. However, there are also 17% who don’t share their troubles at all. They say that their troubles are none of others’ business and some of them find it hard to get along with others.
                                                Yours sincerely,
                                                      Li Hua

阅读下面的短文，然后以约30个词概括短文的要点。
    Everyone has an experience they would rather forget. Some are embarrassing, some are moving, and some teach us a lesson. Here is a story of mine.
    Last Sunday I went fishing. After setting up my fishing rod（钓鱼竿） with bait（鱼饵）, I sat down on the bank of the lake. But two hours later, I didn’t catch any fish. I got very angry and began to pack up my stuff, preparing to go back home.
    Just then, I saw an old man sitting near me. To my surprise, his basket was full of fish, so I went over to him, wanting to know why. “Excuse me, but how long have you sat here?” I asked. “About four hours,” he answered. “Four hours?” I could not believe my ears. “Yes. It’s very important to be patient,” the old man said. “Don’t consider fishing a tiring sport. Just enjoy it.” Suddenly, I understand what he said. I must learn to be patient. Then I sat there and waited for fish patiently. I felt a fish touch the bait, but I didn’t move and waited for the right moment to reel it in（卷收钓鱼线）.At last, I caught it. This made me very happy. In the following six hours, I caught over 10 fish.
    On my way home, I thought what had happened on the bank. I gradually realized that the secret of success was patience. [5分]

The story is about an unforgettable lesson of the writer from an old man while fishing, through which the writer realized patience was very important and that it was the secret of success. (33 words)
