In this excerpt from "The Nun's Priest's Tale" in Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales, how is Pertelote, a hen, compared to Hasdrubal

's wife?
When they had caught a sight of Chanticleer.
But fair Dame Pertelote assailed the ear
Far louder than did Hasdrubal's good wife
When that her husband bold had lost his life,
And Roman legionaries burned Carthage…

In this tale discrepancy between humans and animals doesn't overlap because it is even more complex. In this excerpt, Host mocks the Nun’s Priest telling that he would have perfectly fathered great sons. Indeed, religious people, like priest are celibate and it is what means by the host in these lines.

The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "<span>Pertelote, a hen, is compared to Hasdrubal's wife is that </span>it is important to notice that the animal-human boundary is blurred even before the tale begins, when the Host mocks the Nun’s Priestand suggesting that he would have made excellent breeding stock."

Born in New York in 1856, Louise Blanchard Bethune is considered the first woman architect.

If the underlined phrase is <em>born in New York in 1856, </em>then that would be a participial phrase, which often functions as an adjective in a sentence, like is the case here.
Gerund is always used as a noun, and infinitive has the form <em>to + verb </em>(to go, to be...)

Which sentence is correct?
fiasKO [112]
#2 is correct.

Problems with the others:
#1 - best is a superlative (used to compare more than three or more things)
#3 - best is the greatest something can be so you cannot have more of it
#4 - you either use "more" OR "better" because "more better" would be just be the best

danielle used 8cm of tape to wrap 4 presents if danielle used 30cm of tape how many presents did she wrap
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

15 presents

Explanation:

1. Find the amount it takes to multiply 8 by to get 30. The reason we need to find this is because we need to multiply 4 by the same number to get the amount of presents, because if you multiply one number in a relationship by some number, you have to do the same to the other number. To get from 8 to 30, you multiply by 3 3/4 (30/8).

2. Multiply 4 by that number. 4 * 30/8 (3 3/4) is equal to 30/2, which is equal to 15. This means that she wrapped 15 presents
