阳澄湖大闸蟹周二正式开捕。受政府禁止铺张浪费规定的影响，今年阳澄湖大闸蟹的订单少于往年。但即使如此，这饱受欢迎的珍馐价格仍一路蹿升。

【讲解】

文中的“###hairy crab”就是“大闸蟹”的意思。hairy意为多毛的，长毛的。用hairy来形容，是因为大闸蟹的学名叫做“中华绒螯蟹”，又称为“毛蟹”。大闸蟹是river crab(河蟹)中的一种，Yangcheng Lake hairy crab(阳澄湖大闸蟹)是其中最为知名、最为美味的品种。female crab(雌蟹)的crab roe(蟹黄)、male crab(公蟹)的crab paste(蟹膏)都是美味中的美味。

另外，文中出现了短语sought-after delicacy，sought-after作为形容词，意为很吃香的;广受欢迎的。而delicacy在这里是佳肴的意思，连在一起就是“饱受欢迎的珍馐”的意思。
