Excerpt from The Catching of Unshelled Fish
Olive Green (Myrtle Reed)
It may be cold up North, but down in the Gulf they are fishing—scudding among the Florida Keys in a little white sailboat, landing for lunch on a strand as snowy as the northern streets, where the shimmering distances of white sand are paved with shell and pearl, and the tide thrums out its old song under the palms. And fish? Two-hundred and fifty pounds is the average day's catch for a small sailboat cruising among the Florida Keys. Yet, when all is said and done, the catching of fish is a matter of luck—a gambler's chance, if you will have it so.
Which statement MOST ACCURATELY indicates the author's attitude toward the catching of unshelled fish?
A) It is not a sport suited for modern times.
B) It is much easier than catching shellfish.
C) It is more difficult than catching shellfish.
D) It is only for those who truly love the sport of it, for it is a matter of luck.
