问题 People tend to amass possessions, sometimes without being aware of doing so.Indeed they can have a delightful surprise when they find something useful which they did not know they owned.Those who never have to move house become indiscriminate collectors of what can only be described as clutter.They leave unwanted objects in drawers, cupboards and attics for years, in the belief that they may one day need just those very things.As they grow old, people also accumulate belongings for two other reasons, lack of physical and mental energy, both of which are essential in turning out and throwing away, and sentiment.Things owned for a long time are full of associations with the past, perhaps with relatives who are dead, and so they gradually acquire a value beyond their true worth.
选项
答案人们喜欢收藏东西,有时并没有意识到自己在这样做。当人们找到一些并不知道自己已经有的有用东西时,他们确实会感到惊喜。那些从来不必搬家的人们成了一种无所不容的收藏家。他们专门收藏那些只能被称作杂货的东西。一些不用的东西被丢弃在抽屉里、碗柜中和阁楼上，并且一放就是好几年，人们相信总有一天会正好需要那些东西。人们年老时也喜欢收藏东西，出于两个不同的原因:一是缺乏体力和精力,这是清除无用的东西必不可少的因素;另一原因是感情因素。东西搁得久了,便会与过去岁月有千丝万缕的联系，比方说与去世的亲戚有关。因此这些东西渐渐获得了一种超出它本身的价值。
