The Boiling Crab Story
It all began in a little southeast Texas town called Seadrift. With a small population of just 200, Seadrift was home to Yo'Daddy and his family of crabbers(捕蟹人)and fishermen. They worked in their boats year-round, catching oysters(牡蛎), crabs and shrimp for seafood companies. Hard as the work was, every weekend the men would come home with their catch of the week to enjoy—they boiled crawfish(小龙虾)and crabs, raw oysters, grilled fresh fish—always with a beer in hand.

Ⅱ.短文理解
阅读下面的短文,从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中,选出最佳选项回答问题或完成句子。
I was filled with doubts and worries until my grandfather told me to stand tall.
For me, height was my trouble. I was much taller than other girls, so I often bent (弯曲) my body at the back of the line. I had always felt unsafe as the tallest student of my class in Bala Cynwyd. And I wasn't looking forward to entering the ninth grade.
My grandfather didn't laugh at me. Instead, whenever I tried to bend myself in order to appear shorter, he would tell me, “Stand straight and tall, Alisa.” I trusted my grandfather more than anyone else in my childhood. And whenever I was afraid of something, he always told me stories of his life.
