Answer:
The correct answer is A.
Explanation:
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.
There are 5 uppercase vowels (A..E..I..O..U..) and 21 uppercase constonants( 26 letters in the alphabet minus the 5 vowels) and 9 non zero numbers.
5×21×9= 945
