And it fell to the youngest of them all, And he set off at once towards the town. And thereupon, so soon as he was gone, One of

the two who stayed said to the other: "You know, of course, that you are my sworn brother. I’ll tell you something that you won’t lose by. As you can see, our friend has gone away, And here is gold, and that in greatest plenty, All waiting to be split between us three. How would it be, if I can work it so That it is only shared between us two, Wouldn’t I be doing you a friendly turn?" How does Chaucer characterize the young man speaking in this passage?

This question is missing the options. I have found the complete question online. Since the passage is the same, I will omit it:

How does Chaucer characterize the young man speaking in this passage?

A. as uncomfortable

B. as loyal

C. as deceitful

D. as innocent

Answer:

Chaucer characterizes the young man:

C. as deceitful

Explanation:

When we call someone deceitful, we mean that person is false, untruthful, untrustworthy. Notice that Chaucer shows the young man is deceitful through the character's own words. He knows he is supposed to split the gold between the three of them. However, once the youngest is gone to town, he proposes to the other man that they split it only between the two of them. He clearly cannot be trusted. Therefore, letter C is the best option for this question.

In which sentence is the underlined clause a noun clause functioning as the subject of the sentence? Robert Campbell settled tra
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

A noun clause that is functioning as the subject of the sentence Option C: 'Whoever travels the Pelly River' follows in the footsteps of the explorer Robert Campbell.

Explanation:

A sentence can have independent clauses and dependent clauses. Dependent clause is the noun clause of the sentence which can act as subject, object or complement of verb in a sentence. Noun clause is the dependent part of the sentence which functions as a noun. It is usually introduced in a sentence by the conjunction that.  It can also be introduced by other conjunctions like if, whether, whoever, who, where, when, what etc.

Option B and D noun clauses are acting as objects of the sentence. In Option D "Whoever travels the Pelly River" emphasizes the subject of the sentence. If we ask the question "Who follows in the footsteps", Answer is 'Whoever travels the Pelly River'. So, it is acting as the subject of the verb 'follows' in the sentence.
