Brief Explanations
  1. La frase "the building...has a mind of its own" es una metáfora. Un edificio no puede pensar literalmente. Sin embargo, si no hace lo que el narrador quiere, se dice que "tiene su propia voluntad".
  2. "A wall of spiderwebs" no es una pared real hecha de telas de araña. En su lugar, se refiere a muchas telas de araña juntas, que pueden parecer una pared.
  3. "Precious finds" significa cosas valiosas y "hopeful antiques" se refiere a objetos antiguos que podrían ser valiosos. Por lo tanto, se refieren a viejas cosas valiosas o cosas que podrían ser valiosas.

Answer:

  1. [✓] the machine doesn't do what the narrator wants

  3. [✓] old valuable things or things that might be valuable
