Question

38. Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.
At last I hung the key on my watch-guard; but then it occurred to me that it might be lost or stolen.
Dreading this, I hid it, fearful that someone might use it to open the box. This state of doubt and fear
lasted for weeks, until I became nervous and began to dread that some accident might happen to that
box. A burglar might come and boldly carry it away and force it open and find it was a wicked fraud of
my uncle's. Even the rumble and vibration caused by the heavy vans in the street became at last a terror.
Worst of all, my salary was reduced, and I saw that marriage was out of the question.
