One central idea of morris’s essay is that having too many things can be a burden to people. which two of these details illustrate that idea? choose one answer from each group. type the letter only for each answer in the correct blank. type a, b, c, or d for blank 1. i suppose we all go through a phase when we like things best; and not only like them, but want to possess them under our hand. the host must receive gifts from every little guest, and provide in return some little remembrance for each to take home. as i walk through the shops at christmas time and survey their contents, i find it a most depressing spectacle. their houses are filled with an undigested mass of things, like the terminal moraine where a glacier dumps at length everything it has picked up during its progress through the lands. type e, f, g, or h for blank 2. they keep photographs of all their friends and kodak albums of all the places they visit, they save all their theater programmes and dinner cards, they bring home all their alpenstocks. truly, on all sides we are beset, and we go lumbering along through life like a ship encrusted with barnacles. we cannot go to luncheon and meet our friends but we must receive a token to carry away. when a man’s possessions were burned with him, so that he might, forsooth, have them all about him in the next world!
