Hey There,
First, let's look at the definition of Venerable.
Venerable: This means "impressive by reason of age" or "Deserving respect."

When you summarize, you take the main points of a story and write in in a few sentences. You want to make sure you hit all the key parts of the story and don't focus on the small details. If you were telling a friend about a movie you saw, you would by describe the major events, but not the little moments. That would be summarizing. You can do this with any book,movie,story etc. :)

Explanation:
A Glass of Milk is a story by an unknown author, which recounts the experience of a boy who is poor and hungry, yet he is ashamed of his situation and does not want to receive charity from others who offers him food. The sailor situation quote in the question refers to the beginning of the story, where the sailor offers the boy food, yet he declines it, saying he is not hungry despite the fact that he is. This exchange introduces the central conflict of the story.
