Answer:
Excerpt from Voltaire's Candide
Theme: Different people find value in different things.
The theme above is best developed by the request of Earth made by Candide and Cacambo. The king regards this "Earth" as "yellow clay."
Explanation:
It can be inferred from the excerpt that the European visitors know the value of "the earth of the country", which is for them like a productive mother that gives birth to innumerable children. But for the king and his countrymen, the earth was just mere "yellow clay," sterile and without value.
What one undervalues, another values immensely because there is a gap in their knowledge. Abundance of some resources fools those who dwell on top of the resources. Whereas for those who understand the rarity of the resources, they experience scarcity of it because the demand for the resources would outstrip the supply. This is paradoxical.
