This question is missing the options. I have found the complete question online. Since the passage is the same, I will omit it:
How does Chaucer characterize the young man speaking in this passage?
A. as uncomfortable
B. as loyal
C. as deceitful
D. as innocent
Answer:
Chaucer characterizes the young man:
C. as deceitful
Explanation:
When we call someone deceitful, we mean that person is false, untruthful, untrustworthy. Notice that Chaucer shows the young man is deceitful through the character's own words. He knows he is supposed to split the gold between the three of them. However, once the youngest is gone to town, he proposes to the other man that they split it only between the two of them. He clearly cannot be trusted. Therefore, letter C is the best option for this question.
The answer is C. Sequential and good at math

Macbeth in Act II,Scene 1

Macbeth expresses through his soliloquy, including guilt, ambitiousness, and the relationship between the ideas of fate and free will. Macbeth, in working himself up to the murder of his king, is filled with hesitancy and doubt.
Now Romeo's old desire for Rosaline lies in its deathbed, and a new love is ready to be its heir. Romeo used to groan and swear he would die for Rosaline's love, but now he finds Rosaline's beauty nothing in comparison to tender Juliet's. Now someone loves Romeo and Romeo loves someone, and they are both charmed by each other's looks. But Romeo must declare his love to someone who is supposed to be his enemy, and Juliet is love-struck, adoring someone she is supposed to fear. Because he is considered an enemy, Romeo is not allowed to see Juliet, and make the sorts of oaths that lovers usually swear to each other. And Juliet—just as much in love with Romeo as he is with her—she has even fewer means of meeting her beloved Romeo. But passion gives them the power, and time gives them the opportunity, to meet each other, tempering their extreme adversity with extreme sweetness.
