An example of how Wilde pokes fun at the upper-class lifestyle is "Algernon says it is hard work to live in this leisurely manner".
In <em>The Importance of Being Earnest</em>,<u> Jack and Algernon are described as wealthy gentlemen</u>. Moreover, they come from important families. In this excerpt, <u>Wilde uses Algernon and his belief that doing nothing is hard work to satirize the upper-class; however, Wilde does not seek to make fun of mere individuals but to make fun of this society as a whole</u>. The author's aim throughout the play is to amuse and to make fun of the Victorian upper class.
Free verse poetry fits that description.
Geoffrey Chaucer is using these lines in the opening excerpt of "The Canterbury Tales" to provide the time for the setting, as stated in option A.
<h3>What is setting?</h3>
The setting of a story refers to the context in which it takes place, including:
In the "General Prologue" to "The Canterbury Tales," we can see that author Geoffrey Chaucer provides the time for the setting. He mentions that it is now April, time for the pilgrimage to start.
With the information above in mind, we can choose option A as the correct answer.

Though obviously subjective due to the fact that you’re allowed to pick a prompt, I think it would be stronger to claim that novel is a statement on cruelty on the world. This is clear throughout the novel, but if you’re in a rush and haven’t read it I understand! In that case, AT LEAST watch and read summaries concerning themes and major character developments and events (Sparknotes, Cliffnotes)
Some things you might touch on to communicate this claim may be:
- Societal values of the 1930s, relate to historical context of the Great Depression
- Industrialization of man, seeing people as no more than a means for labor
- Disregard for human and animal life, suffering (Candy’s dog)
-The pursuit of the American dream yet it being unobtainable
- Raw violence, a lack of sympathy, grief
***The end dynamic of Lennie and George. Please look into the significance, it’s one of the most profound moments in the book. Did George feel responsible for his friend’s actions? Was he making a sacrifice to save him from suffering even if there is cruelty in the act itself?
I wish I could help you with specific evidence but if you’ve read the book, I hope you can connect these ideas back to support your claim. Of Mice and Men is really effective in making a statement on morality and just the raw definition of what it means to be human. It definitely explores the nature of dreams, sacrifice, and loneliness which makes it so great. Good luck!! :)
