The correct answer is A.

The purpose of this excerpt from "The Crab That Played with the Sea" is to use a story to explain children the causes of the tide.

"The fisherman" is the moon, and the action of the tides is represented by him pulling his fishing rod and taking the sea with it.

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>A. to explain to children that the moon causes the tides </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

In this excert, the author is making a convincing case. He uses short words to create a clear understanding of the children and other listeners. When comparing his writing and other familiar stories, this one is different because of the choice of words that quickly comprehended. Proverbs have been used in some instances; however, the words explaining them are short and precise. This helps children to master them quickly and write to them when they are asked to during their classwork tasks.
