<span>Chaucer uses satire in The Canterbury Tales to show the faults of institutions of the time, commonly focusing on their stereotypes. He hits hard on the corruption that happened within the Catholic church, and through satire he exposes all these issues to his audience.</span>

Answer:

Chaucer uses satire in his characterization of the Pardoner to criticize the Church. The Pardoner's sermon against greed humorously contrasts with his exaggerated greediness. Chaucer creates such an excessively greedy character to draw attention to real corruption in the Church and to bring about change.

6a. What made Dave Withrow uniquely qualified to join Operation
Len [333]

Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, however, after searching for it on the internet, I was able to find another question exactly the same as yours that presented the text "NOAA’s Big Miracle Worker" as the text in question. If this is your case I hope the answer below can help you.

Answer and Explanation:

The text is an interview with Dave Withrow about the operation that allowed the rescue of three gray whales that were trapped in Barrow, Alaska in 1988. Withrow shows that he was the qualified professional to work in this operation because he had experience working with marine manifers, such as whales, because when he worked at NOAA at the Alaska Fisheries Science Center, his department was responsible for taking care of any matter related to whales. This can be seen in the first paragraph of the text, in the lines: “... anything whale-related, especially on the West Coast, comes  through our office.”

mezya [45]

Answer:

Foreshadowing is a hint the author makes in the story about what is going to happen in the future. When Mr. Shiftlet first appears, he seems very Christ-like in his demeanor and attitude. He is a carpenter, he does not care about money, and he seems to care mostly about nature.
