Selection extraction isn't supported yet (well not gracefully anyways)
through the Python API. However, you can use the following for similar
effect:
OpenDataFIle(...)
ExtractSurface()
GenerateIds()
threshold1 = Threshold()
threshold1.Scalars = ['CELLS', 'Ids']
threshold1.ThresholdRange = [4.5, 5.5] # to extract cell with Id 5.
