To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The earlier boats were moored and on the decks fires were burning in charcoal braziers, on which the fish- ermen cooked their breakfasts of fish WHERE and coffee, with the heavy black loaves of bread for which they seem GOME IN to have special fancy. As the odor of the cooking fish came up from the water the waiting gulls and men and women moved a little closer. Breakfast over the fishermen turned to the expect- ant crowd and began taking notice of the pitiful offer- ings of coin. Tin buckets, ...newspapers, bags, rags and even scooped hands were held down, each containing such coin as the owner possessed, and in return came bountiful supply of fish. A fine, fat crab for which your market man would charge you forty cents was sold for ten. Beautiful, fresh sand-dabs, but an hour or two out of the water, were five cents a pound, while sea bass, fresh cod, mackerel, and similar fish went at the same price. Small fish, or white bait, went by quantity, ten cents securing about half a gallon. Smelt, herring, flounder, sole, all went at equally low prices, and as each buyer secured his allotment he went hurrying off through the mist, as silently as the floating gulls.
