Answer:

b) The Prioress is more dainty.

Explanation:

The Prioress and the Wife of Bath are two female characters described in The Canterbury Tales by Chaucer. The two women share some commonalities. However, they are also quite different. The Wife of Bath is a woman of great experience. She has been married several times, has travelled around the world and is quite independent economically. This does not fit with the stereotype of a wife of the time.

The Prioress, on the other hand, also does not fit with the stereotype of a nun. The Prioress is more dainty and sophisticated in her behaviour. She is educated and aristocratic, and she is quite beautiful. She is interested in secular matters, such as social advancement and has led a sheltered life when compared to the Wife of Bath.

The Prioress is foolishly sentimental, "She was so charitable and pitous / She wolde wepe, if that she saugh a mous /Knaught in a trappe." But all her sentiments are for animals only, she don?t cares for men as ordered by the God and Charist, The Wife of Bath is more lively, she can sit with other men and can talk and laugh, she cares only for herself.

So the answer is C

What is the difference between a simile and a metaphor

marin [14]

Answer:

How strongly two things are being compared

Explanation:

Both simile and metaphor are figures of speech used to compare two different, unrelated, things that share some kind of quality. However, there is a difference. The simile uses words like and as, while the metaphor omits them, stating that something is something else. This is why we can say that the metaphor is a stronger type of comparison.
