In this excerpt from Gordimer's essay, the author discusses the consequences of apartheid. This excerpt is used to reflect on how some things are admired by the white and powerful population for their rarity but are the everyday objects for the poor South because it's all they have. She concludes that image by saying "The penny whistle is a charming piece of musical ingenuity; but it should not always be necessary for a man to make his music out of nothing.".

Through this she says that the poor South uses candles because that's all they've got. She says that it's not that bad to live in Sophiatown (predominantly black region, destroyed during the apartheid) but that it's tragic when you don't have the possibilities of living anywhere else.

Elis [28]

Answer:

B). Industry vs. Inferiority.

Explanation:

'Industry versus Inferiority' is categorized as the fourth stage of Psycho-social development out of the eight stages. This stage primarily occurs between the age of 6 to 11 years in which the child learns to be more productive. At this stage, the child tends to show acceptability towards the evaluation of their selves as they develop self-esteem is they measure-up and feel inferior or subordinate when they fail to do so.

In the given example, Manuel's attribute reflects that he is in this 'industry vs inferiority' stage of psychosocial development theory proposed by Erikson as he feels 'pride in his skills' which mirrors the development of 'self-esteem' and he has become more 'acceptable' as 'he works hard at them and believes that he is good' in those skills which reflects his 'industrious' attitude as he knows that failing it would lead to a sense of 'inferiority'. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
