In this excerpt from frances hodgson burnett’s “sara crewe: or what happened at miss minchin’s,” which sentence suggests that sara was reluctant to give the last few buns to the street child? the child was still huddled up on the corner of the steps. she looked frightful in her wet and dirty rags. she was staring with a stupid look of suffering straight before her, and sara saw her suddenly draw the back of her roughened, black hand across her eyes to rub away the tears which seemed to have surprised her by forcing their way from under her lids. she was muttering to herself. sara opened the paper bag and took out one of the hot buns, which had already warmed her cold hands a little. "see," she said, putting the bun on the ragged lap, "that is nice and hot. eat it, and you will not be so hungry." the child started and stared up at her; then she snatched up the bun and began to cram it into her mouth with great wolfish bites. "oh, my! oh, my! " sara heard her say hoarsely, in wild delight. "oh, my! " sara took out three more buns and put them down. "she is hungrier than i am," she said to herself. "she's starving." but her hand trembled when she put down the fourth bun. "i'm not starving," she said—and she put down the fifth.

in a place once known as north america, now known as panem, is a very rich city surrounded by twelve districts. every year because this very rich city, known as the capitol, is so rich and likes to think they control all the districts - which they do - there is something known as the hunger games! this is where two children, one boy and one girl from each district from the ages of twelve to eighteen, have to leave their families and compete in the hunger games, a live event that is aired on tv's all over panem. when katniss everdeen, aged sixteen from district 12, has to volunteer to take the place of her twelve-year-old sister prim after prim's name is called forth to become the 23rd member to compete in the 74th hunger games, she promises to prim that she will win! katniss doesn't believe she's coming out alive - but she's not going down without a fight.

because district 12 is so poor, katniss has been close to death many times from starvation but she's made it through it. but this is a different kind of close to death; this katniss doesn't know if she can survive.

she doesn't want to hurt, or kill anyone but when it comes down to it katniss' instinct is to survive. but when she starts to have confusing feelings about the boy from her district who is also her fellow contender, things get worse, and then she teams up with the girl from district 11 and only one person can survive. but who will it be? will her feelings get the better of her? will she let someone else win so they don't have to die? if katniss is going to win she's going to have to be brutal. she's going to have to kill!
