For many years I suffered from a severe and continuous nervous breakdown tending to melancholia--and beyond
During about the third year of this trouble I went, in devout faith and some faint stir of hope, to a noted specialist in
nervous diseases, the best known in the country. This wise man put me to bed and applied the rest cure, to which
a still-good physique responded so promptly that he concluded there was nothing much the matter with me, and
sent me home with solemn advice to "live as domestic a life as far as possible," to "have but two hours' intellectual
life a day," and "never to touch pen, brush, or pencil again" as long as I lived. This was in 1887

A. Before “Perhaps”
B. After “people”
C. After “readily”
D. After “bond”
E. After “robots”
Answer:
E. After “robots”
