The knight is portrayed as an ideal and noble knight who lives by the code of chivalry. He’s distinguished but not boastful. He has fought in the Crusades and is well traveled. His admirable traits come across in the language Chaucer uses, as in this excerpt:

Though so illustrious, he was very wise

And bore himself as meekly as a maid.

He never yet had any vileness said,

In all his life, to whatsoever wight

He was a truly perfect, gentle Knight.

 The first pilgrim Chaucer describes in the General Prologue, and the teller of the first tale. The Knight represents the ideal of a medieval Christian man-at-arms. He has participated in no less than fifteen of the great crusades of his era. Brave, experienced, and prudent, the narrator greatly admires him.

What does this mean? "We are all the same in so many different ways."
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Exactly what it says. We are all the same, in different ways

Explanation:

Like, we are all the same species. Right? Human. We all have human nature, instincts, and we all have eyes, ear, and noses (unless you've lost some, unfortunately. But you were most likely born with them!) But we have different temperaments, attitudes, opinions, and we look different. We talk different. But it's in our nature to look for friends, to want to be liked by others, and to be happy in general. But depending on how we were raised, our <em>morals </em>fluctuate and we change and are shaped by what goes on around us. But at our base, we're human. We have different cultures, but we each <em>have </em>culture (if that makes sense.) We have different versions of the same things. For example, every country has their own form of bread. It may be a tortilla, or pasta, or whatever, but it's <em>bread. </em>The same, but different in many ways.

<em>(Hope that helps and made sense!)</em>

If an expository writing uses transitions such as for instance, for example, and by way of illustration, the passage most likely
Alexxx [7]

The correct answer is 1: Illustration-example.

Illustrations and examples are introduced by the transition phrases such as "for instance" and "for example". Some other linking words for giving examples are "to illustrate", "namely", and "such as". These linking words do not necessarily have to be at the beginning of the sentence.
