The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from O Pioneers! by Willa Cather: friends gave her a bag of candy, and she kissed
them all around, though she did not like coun-
try candy very well. Perhaps that was why she
bethought herself of Emil. "Let me down,
Uncle Joe," she said, "I want to give some of
my candy to that nice little boy I found." She
walked graciously over to Emil, followed by her
lusty admirers, who formed a new circle and
teased the little boy until he hid his face in his
sister's skirts, and she had to scold him for
being such a baby.
