The answer is to help the reader visualize a house bordered by smaller cottages
<em>He was spending his summer vacation, as he always did, with his mother at Grand Isle. In former times, before Robert could remember, "the house" had been a summer luxury of the Lebruns. Now, flanked by its dozen or more cottages, which were always filled with exclusive visitors from the "Quartier Français," it enabled Madame Lebrun to maintain the easy and comfortable existence which appeared to be her birthright.</em>
The author uses the word <u>flanked</u> meaning, according to Cambridge<em> "to be at the side of someone or something"</em> to let the reader imagine a large, luxurious and expensive house surrounded by small cottages but equally important since they were exclusive to the inhabitants of the French quarter.

Answer:
1. That she possesses such fairness and fresh beauty
2. Palamon became angry because he was also in love with Emily.
3. He went from being a Knight to chamber page.
(Canterbury Tales: The Knight's Tales)
Explanation:
Emily is basically just a beautiful noblewoman whom Palamon and Arcite admire from afar, then fight over. Even though both knights say she's the cause of all their pain and suffering, she hardly knows who they are for most of the story. With Emily, then, we have a character who's not insensitive to the suffering of Palamon and Arcite, but who just never wants to marry. Unfortunately for her, she lives in a world in which noblewomen exist to reward worthy men. In the end, what Emily wants is just not all that important (Canterbury Tales: The Knight's Tales).
