The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from A Voyage to Arcturus by David Lindsay: succession of large, low-shored lakes, divided by narrow strips of
tree-covered land. The lake immediately before them had its small
end to the forest. It was there about a third of a mile wide. The
water at the sides and end was shallow, and choked with dolm-colored
rushes; but in the middle, beginning a few yards from the shore,
there was a perceptible current away from them. In view of this
current, it was difficult to decide whether it was a lake or a river.
Some little floating islands were in the shallows.
"Is it here that we take to the water?" inquired Maskull.
'Yes, here," answered Gangnet.
"But how?"
