Scrat [10]3 years ago

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>.

Excerpt from Norse Mythology Part B Kate McConnaughey (15) Then all the gods wept, the summer breeze wailed, the leaves fell fro
jekas [21]

The correct answer is letter b.

The excerpt is written in the Simple Past and narrates a series of events that happened in a sequence.

Notice the verbs in the Simple Past : wept, wailed, fell, faded and died.

There is a verb missing  in the part " the earth stiff and cold"  The verb is grow, the Simple Past form is grew, therefore " the earth grew stiff and cold" is the correct way.

Letter A is wrong because there's a verb missing.

Letter C and letter D " the earth was growing stiff and cold" the verb grow is in the Past Continuos, " the leaves were falling from the sorrowing  trees"  the verb fall is also in the Past Continous breaking the pattern stablished.
