In this chapter, Scout begins to notice that other children in her class have traits and behaviors that she does not understand. Specifically, she becomes angry and judgmental when Walter Cunningham is at her house for dinner, and begins to pour syrup on all of his food. Scout is unaware of Walter's home life, and merely sees this action as him choosing not to act in a way that she believes is right. Atticus and Calpurnia, knowing that Walter does not know any better, remind her that Walter, has had a different upbringing than she has, and has not had many of the opportunities that she has had. When Atticus has this discussion with Scout, he wants her to understand that although people may have their differences, it is important to try and see things from their points of view. This quote is one of the earliest examples of the recurring theme of Scout learning about empathy throughout the novel.

Answer:
"Shooting an Elephant" by George Orwell
The Europeans are presented as unnecessary despots, who foolishly portray themselves as lords, by imposing their rule over others, nothing realizing that they are becoming a laughing stock of the ruled. Imperialists all over history think that they are in control not knowing that they have lost their will power to the people, whom they think they dominate. Like masked people, who have grown to resemble the masks they wear with ingrained habits and prejudices, Europeans must dance to the music that only the crowds know how best to play.
Explanation:
George Orwell's 1936 short story titled: "Shooting an Elephant" describes his experiences as a Burmese colonial police officer, torn in-between loyalty to his official duty and the dictates of his conscience.
