Which line from Utopia is an example of an anecdote? The folly of men has enhanced the value of gold and silver because of their

scarcity; whereas, on the contrary, it is their opinion that Nature, as an indulgent parent, has freely given us all the best things in great abundance . . . It is certain that all things appear incredible to us in proportion as they differ from known customs; but one who can judge aright will not wonder to find that, since their constitution differs so much from ours, their value of gold and silver should be measured by a very different standard . . . I never saw a clearer instance of the opposite impressions that different customs make on people than I observed in the ambassadors of the Anemolians, who came to Amaurot when I was there. But they much more admire and detest the folly of those who, when they see a rich man, though they neither owe him anything, nor are in any sort dependent on his bounty . . .

Answer:

I never saw a clearer instance of the opposite impressions that different customs make on people than I observed in the ambassadors of the Anemolians, who came to Amaurot when I was there.

Explanation:

This line is the best example of an anecdote. An anecdote is a short story that an author shares in order to support or demonstrate some point. Anecdotes can also have a humorous or amusing purpose. In this example, the author wants the reader to agree with a particular point of view that he is sharing. In order to encourage the reader to do so, he shares the story of when he met the ambassadors of the Anemolians.
