I believe the answer is that Sir Gawain thought the Green Knight belonged to the nobility, because in the excerpt it says that 'the fabric was noble' - meaning that not everyone (such as peasant, vassal, or commoner) could afford such an attire.

The attire of Bertilak, the mysterious Green Knight who challenges the knights of the Round Table, is described in the medieval text in detail in lines 161-172, where we can read that  "Bothe the bosses on his belt and other bright gems / That were richly ranged on his raiment noble". The word noble indicates indeed his social status; it grants him his high position in the court. Additionally, the fact that precious stones and metals are part of his attire also reflects the lavishness of the royalty and the court.

marishachu [46]
<span>a documentary filmed by an expert on the Black Death is your answer

It is not "</span><span>a book of historical fiction about the Middle Ages", because it is fictionous, and while it does follow history, not all of it is true. Also, Middle Ages encompasses a large amount of events, not just the Black Death.
</span><span>
It is not "</span><span>a medical textbook with a section devoted to modern diseases", because the Black Death happened during the Middle Ages, and is not a modern disease.
</span><span>
It is not "</span><span>a history textbook with a chapter on life in the Middle Ages", because it encompasses all daily life aspects, and may or may not include the years of the Black Death.

A teacher watched the debate between Ren and Polina. Read the description of what he saw.
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Don’t look down the entire time the other person is speaking is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Letter A is incorrect because it is a good idea to write down some notes so the person won't forget what he wants to say during his intervention.

C is also incorrect because the person shouldn't write everything, because it means that he should learn how to categorize what the other person says because not everything is important.

D is also incorrect because if Ren did so he would show that he need to improve his listening skills.

B is correct because this way Ren would show that he can both pay attention to the other person while writing. It would also mean that he can see what the other person is doing, since body language could be very important for the debate.
