Answer: D. Parallelism

Parallelism refers to one or more sentences that have a similar grammatical structure. It also refers to the use of similar components in these sentences. The sentences that employ parallelism tend to resemble each other in their construction, sound, meaning or meter. This is a common literary device because it increases the persuasiveness of a text. It also adds balance and rhythm.

.How does the excerpt satirize the Church?
irina1246 [14]

<u>Answer</u>:

The excerpt satirize the Church (A) by exaggerating the greedy nature of the clergy

<u>Explanation</u>:

In “The Canterbury Tales” by “Chaucer”, the author depicts that all the clergy men, spiritual leaders in a church, are all corrupt people. He creates a satire on many characters from various professions and people from different classes.

Specifically, in a church, he criticizes that even forgiveness is available for purchase. Also, in church clergy men deceive people by asking them to buy the holy artifacts. This is cheating and is even morally wrong. Thus, Chaucer satirize the church by exaggerating the greedy nature of the clergy men.

RoseWind [281]
A. To do whatever he wants them to do.


A sentence fragment is a sentence that is incomplete, one that is separated from the main claus. In this case "To" is a preposition, which means that there should be more to the sentence. You can tell because you can't fully understand the idea behind the sentence. Therefore A, is the fragment.
