States.....................................
There was nothing in the house to demand care, to claim attention, to cumber my consciousness with it's insistent, unchanging companionship.
<u>Explanation:</u>
This line in the passage shows that the things in the house are a burden. There was nothing in the house that could give care or attention to the people and were all materialistic things.

The correct answer is C, hypocrisy. This work of Mark Twain's is actually a fictionalized version of his own wartime experiences.

That's the irony and hypocrisy that Twain was trying to convey in this work.
