Answer
Chaucer draws on the <u>ESTATES</u> satire prevalent in his time to bring out the traits of the different classes of society. He uses the technique of <u>FRAME</u> story to hold the narrative together.
Explanation:
Geoffrey Chaucer's "The Canterbury Tales" is a frame narrative story told by numerous pilgrims on their way to Canterbury. The tales told by the different characters all reflect their true selves, according to their professions and backgrounds.
In this tale, Chaucer draws on the estates satire which is a writing genre that focuses on the societal classes of the time. Most writings of this genre occurs during the Medieval times where class/ status plays a huge role in the identification and understanding of a person.
Chaucer also uses the technique of a frame narrative to make the stories stick together. This type of frame narrative is when a story is included in the main story, like different sub-branches from the main part. In simple words, we can say a frame narration is "a story within a story". This happens when a narrator tells a story about a person who then narrates a story too.

It's called that because it was one of the first streets in New York City to be lit with electric lights. People continue to use this term today because the millions of lights on the theatre marquees still brighten up the night sky in a flashing white.
You shall go west, and face the god who has turned, You shall find what was stolen, and see it safely returned, You shall be betrayed by one who calls you a friend, And you shall fail to save what matters most, in the end:)
Answer: C. Our hearts are united by nature itself.
Explanation: In the given excerpt from "A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning" by John Donne we can see the description of two souls like they have always been two, it says that if one of them wants to move, it only can be done if the other one moves too ("To move, but doth, if th’ other do"), so by that description we can say that the statement that best paraphrases the lines of the poem is that our hearts are united by nature itself.
