Shell-fish are, comparatively, slow of movement, without guile, pitifully trusting, and very easily caught. Observe the difference between the chunk of mutton and four feet of string with which one goes crabbing, and the complicated hooks, rods, flies, and reels devoted to the capture of unshelled fish.

A) Shellfish are small, slow, and you can catch them any time.
B) Shellfish are the hardest fish to catch because they are crafty and smart.
C) Shellfish should not be hard to catch since they are too slow to run away.
D) Shellfish are slow and not very smart. They are trusting and easily caught.
