Read the excerpt from the General Prolgue to the Canterbury Tales. The pardon-seller’s hair was yellow as wax, And sleekly hangi

ng, like a hank of flax. In meagre clusters hung what hair he had; Over his shoulders a few strands were spread, But they lay thin, in rat’s tails, one by one. As for a hood, for comfort he wore none, For it was stowed away in his knapsack. Which statement best describes how the pardon-seller is characterized in this excerpt? He is characterized as a man who is quite handsome. He is characterized as a man who is still very young. He is characterized as a man who has long, thinning hair. He is characterized as a man who has lots of money.

A man who wears long, thinning hair.  The clues are "sleekly hanging"  or dangling hair, his hair goes at least down to the shoulders "a few strands were spread" and the description of the thinning hair is found at "but they (the few strands) lay thin in rat's trails, one by one."

Answer: Vaccines- The history

Explanation: Vaccines are shots of medicine that are used to prevent someone from catching a strain or virus. They are used worldwide, and are given to mostly children and elderly, to protect their immune systems.

What is the history of vaccines? The first vaccine was developed in 1796 by Edward Jenner. He made it to find a cure to smallpox. He tested it on a 13-year-old infected with smallpox, and the boy later showed immunity to smallpox. In 1798, the smallpox vaccine was first released to the public.
