Suggested Answer: E 🗳️
The two parts of the sentence paraphrase the same idea. Therefore, the first blank should correspond to the idea of "the things they most deeply cherish" in the second half of the sentence, while the second blank should correspond to "myths." The word pair values and stories works well.
