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.
Answer:
I don't know if you're asking us how difficult it would be or if this is an actual question for a school assignment, but yeah. A lot of communication is conveyed through facial expressions, body language, eye contact, gestures, and more, so to only communicate by talking would be pretty challenging. Luckily, we'd still be able to fluctuate our tone of voice, but having a blank, emotionless face without us being able to move our shoulders or use our hands would take time getting used to.
It helps create a concerned, yet optimistic tone.
