According to the Wife of Bath, what gives a man the distinction of being a great gentleman?

English

The wife of Bath replies to the knight's criticism of her poverty by stating that it is a man's actions and gentle behavioir that makes him a great gentleman, and not his possessions or his social standing. She claims that gentlemanliness cannot be inherited like wealth; even if a man grows up in a household where noble actions are cultivated, he must also act in that manner; even an earl or a duke, she says, may be devoid of a noble heart or gentlemanly manners. And she goes on to remind the knight how Jesus chose to live in poverty while performing noble deeds.

You need to identify the characteristics so that it is easier for you to hunt them, (if they aren't endangered). You would have better experience between all of this and it would just be simple for you. :)

Match each excerpt to the rhetorical devices it uses.
Debora [2.8K]

The answers to the question above would be the following ones:

A) The rhetorical device used here is repetition. President John F. Kennedy has chosen to repeat the same structures over and over again. We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade (...) not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve (...)".

B) The rhetorical device used here is satire. Satire is the use of humour, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity, particularly in the context of politics.

C) The rhetorical device used here is rhetorical question.  Rhetorical questions are asked in order to make a statement. They do not expect any answer. Douglass believes that the wrongfulness of slavery is an issue that he expects everyone to be concerned with.
