Answer: In this excerpt, the Dillingham Youngs are described as a
couple that <u>has a routine.</u>
Explanation:
This is an excerpt from "The Gift of the Magi", a 1905 short story by O. Henry. It features a young husband and wife and their struggle to buy Christmas gifts for each other with very little money.
In the excerpt, they are described as a couple that has certain daily routine. We find out that Jim is never late, and always enters a particular door. The writer uses the adverbs 'never' and 'always' that indicate repeated action. Moreover, the word 'habit' is used, which also suggests that the situation described frequently happens.
This practice is divisive, it is unfair, it is archaic.
