Americans are hooked on swordfish! but last month 27 top restaurant chefs took them off the menu. why? the number of swordfish is shrinking fast, and chefs want to save the tasty fish. during the 1960s, fishermen switched from using harpoons to using long lines with hundreds of hooks. result: many more small swordfish are caught. the small fish never get a chance to grow and produce more fish.

what is the author's viewpoint? ?

a. swordfish are very tasty.
b. people should stop eating swordfish.
c. fishing is bad.
d. when fishing, be careful not to catch any swordfish.

i would say c, admiration because the narrator related to the main character and she, too, once felt ashamed about her culture and wished to be an american girl to impress a boy. she felt admiration because her mom prepared her favorite foods when her and robert's (the guy she liked) family all came together and had a family reunion.

in my opinion, anyone should be allowed to marry as long as it's not going against any laws. though i kind of contradict myself because i know that in some states and countries, gay marriage isn't legal yet- hopefully you get my point.
