Question

Excerpt from: Pieces of the Past Erin Sullivan 1 Nate slammed the garage door shut with a loud bang—hopefully loud enough for Granddad to hear from inside the house. Nate was angry, angry at his parents for abandoning him at this house during his vacation, angry for having to spend a beautiful sunny day clearing out a dark and damp garage. 2 The dusty garage once housed vehicles, but over time it became cramped with Granddad’s possessions. Tightly packed boxes, bags, and trunks were stacked to the ceiling. You can tell that Granddad’s house is A) very old. B) very cluttered. C) close to the park. D) close to the garage.

This place is described by the narrator as "The dusty garage... it became cramped with Granddad’s possessions" also, the narrator explicitly states this space contains multiple boxes, bags, and other objects. This suggests the garage and therefore the house of Grandad's is disorganized and filled with multiple things or very cluttered.
