This bay, repeatedly dredged, furnished a huge supply of excellent oysters 2. 在海湾中我们打了好几次鱼，我们打到很多好吃的牡蛎我们是按照薛尼克的方法，
As the Roman playwright 3 Seneca recommended, we opened them right at our table, then stuffed ourselves. 在饭桌上把牡蛎剥开，尽量无节制地吃。

This Wailea oysterbank must have been extensive, 魏利阿海湾中一定有十分丰富的壮蜗，
and for certain, if they hadn't been controlled by numerous natural checks, 如果没有各种消灭它们的原因，
these clusters of shellfish would have ended up jam-packing the bay, 这些团结成群的动物必然要把这一带海湾都填满，
since as many as 2,000,000 eggs have been counted in a single individual. 因为光是一个牡蜗就可以产两百万个卵。

to supply the 315 grams that satisfy one man's minimum daily requirement for nitrogen. 要二百个左右牡蛎呢。
