Answer: C. It is desperate because she is willing to be treated like a dog as long as she can be near him.

Explanation: a metaphor is a figure of speech that consists in making a direct comparison between elements that aren't obviously related, without using the words "like" or "as" to make the comparison. It is often used to create an image in the readers' minds. In the given passage from Act II, Scene 1, in "A Midsummer Night's Dream" by William Shakespeare we can see an example of a metaphor when Helena says "I am your spaniel, and, Demetrius, The more you beat me I will fawn on you" and it shows that she is desperate because she is willing to be treated like a dog as long as she can be near him.

As a result, <u>the thought that a good reader can find out whether a book is worthy after reading just the first page does not possess any scientific or accurate knowledge</u>.

In the Prologue excerpt, why to you think the Wife of Bath asks the pilgrims NOT to be offended at her views as she will portray

Ede4ka [16]

Answer and Explanation:

1. Because she is a woman far ahead of her time, presenting women in positions that were not stimulated in society and that could shock listeners. Her story is about female freedom, wisdom and even sexual freedom and that was not something advocated in women at the time.

2. The king's punishment is for the knight to be executed for having abused a maiden against her will.

3. The queen begs the king for mercy. The irony in this is that no one imagined that the queen would impose a task so that the knight would not be executed, as readers might think that she would intercede for the knight only because she was kind and not a strategist as she proved to be.

4. Bath's wife claims that having the power to dominate is what binds women to men, because by dominating their husbands, women are able to satisfy their desires and enjoy everything that gives them pleasure. What the old woman values most is the loyalty between the couple
