Answer 1

HEY DEAR FRIEND!!!
HOPE U LIKE MY ANSWER!!

Harris went into the maze to show a friend the way. As he had studied the map of the maze, he thought it was easy to get out of it. Both of them went in. In the maze, they met some people who were there for three quarters o f an hour and were unable to find the way out. Harris was confident of knowing t he way and therefore asked them to follow him. Everyone started following him. Many more people joined him who had lost their way. There were twenty people now. Harri s continued to turn to the right. However, soon people realised that instead of going out, they kept going around the same place again and again. All of them were very a angery with Harris as every time they kept coming back to the center. Later on, they were helped by the old keeper to find their way.

THANK YOU!!!!!!

Answer 2

anSwEr :

This is yet another humorous adventure in a book detailing the comic capers of three men in 1880s Britain who decide to take a two-week long boating vacation on the Thames, traveling from Kingston-on-Thames to Oxford. The three are comically ill-suited to handle their many adventures. The Hampton maze episode illustrates not only Harris's incompetence as a tourist but also the incompetence of tourists in general--and perhaps the way they are deceived by being assured that difficult tasks are easy.

Harris decides he wants to go through the maze at Hampton Court, a royal palace once occupied by Henry VIII. A "country cousin" tells him that the maze is simple to navigate: you keep turning right and you'll be out in ten minutes:

Well just go in here, so that you can say you’ve been, but its very simple. Its absurd to call it a maze. You keep on taking the first turning to the right. Well just walk round for ten minutes, and then go and get some lunch.

Once inside, Harris meets up with tired, lost tourists who want to get out of the maze. In short order, Harris has:

absorbed all the persons in the maze. People who had given up all hopes of ever getting either in or out, or of ever seeing their home and friends again, plucked up courage at the sight of Harris and his party, and joined the procession, blessing him.

Naturally, Harris has no idea what he is doing, and they all continue to be hopelessly lost. Harris becomes "unpopular." In the end, the crowd of lost souls calls out to the "keeper," who climbs into the maze with a ladder, but he is new and cannot lead them out either. They remain lost until the "old keeper" returns from dinner. With dry humor, Harris decides it is a "very fine maze" and that he will try to get George "into it" on their way back.
