Answer:

B. She whimsically changes her mind about whom she supports.

Explanation:

Geoffrey Chaucer's "The Canterbury Tales" contain a collection of tales told by the pilgrims on their way to Canterbury. The Monk's tale is one among the others who were made to tell stories so as to pass the time.

In Monk's tale, the theme focus on how fortune affects a man's life. The fickleness of fortune, the temporary nature of its generosity and interest in a man is what the monk wants to warn the others. And in his tale, the Monk reveals that one trait of Fortune is that she whimsically supports and then changes her mind about the person she favors without no warning. He states <em>"whan that Fortune list to flee, / Ther may no man the cours of hire withholde. / Lat no man truste on blynd prosperitee"</em>.

Thus, the <u>correct answer is option B</u>.

How does the conflict at the beginning of the paragraph move the plot forward?
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

The narrator realizes that the god was a man.

Explanation:

The paragraph you were given is the following:

At first I was afraid to approach him—then the fear left me. He was sitting looking out over the city—he was dressed in the clothes of the gods. His age was neither young nor old—I could not tell his age. But there was wisdom in his face and great sadness. You could see that he would have not run away. He had sat at his window, watching his city die—then he himself had died. But it is better to lose one's life than one's spirit—and you could see from the face that his spirit had not been lost. I knew, that, if I touched him, he would fall into dust—and yet, there was something unconquered in the face.

The correct option is the third one. Initially, he was afraid to approach, but then the fear left him and he decided to continue observing the god, who turned out to be a man and died along with his city. There is nothing telling us that the narrator is feeling as powerful as a god, or that he distrusts the spirits. The only mention of a spirit is the person's spirit, the one that must not be lost.

Read the following passage and answer the question that follows.
amm1812

The properly formatted example is the last one:

Romans were very particular in their dining habits. They reclined on "special couches" (Phin 429).

For an in-text citation in Modern Language Association (MLA) style, you give a  parenthetical reference to your source by an author name and page number.  The full information about that author and source will be included in your bibliography.

So in the examples shown, the third example is incorrect because it only lists a page number, not the author name.

The second example shown is incorrect because it splits apart the reference to the author (Phin) from the reference to the page number (429).

The first example is close to correct, but is punctuated incorrectly.  The in-text citation in MLA style is considered part of the sentence, so the period goes at the very end of the whole sentence, which means after the reference (Phin 429).

Thus the fourth example shown is the only one that is fully correct in its format.
