This response demonstrates a partial understanding of the texts. The student's choice of photograph is supported by expressed information ('there was no other visible life — just one ghost crab;' 'waves crashing on the beach'). An attempt at analysis is made (looks to be more from the ghost crabs point of view + that was how the man was trying to think); however, more clarity and extended understanding are needed for a higher score.
