Answer:
The use of decasyllabic meter
Geoffrey Chaucer was an English poet during the Middle Ages, best known for his work The Canterbury Tales. He is known as the "Father of English literature" and was the first writer to be buried in Poets' Corner of Westminster Abbey.
Chaucer is also well-known for his metrical innovation. He was one of the first English poets to use the five-stress line, which is a decasyllabic cousin to the iambic pentameter that became popular during the Elizabethan period.
The correct answers are (B) <em>The British Empire and the French Republic, linked together in their cause and their need, will defend to the death their native soils, aiding each other like good comrades to the utmost of their strength, even though a large tract of Europe and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Gestapo and all the odious apparatus of Nazi rule.</em> and (C) <em>We shall not flag nor fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France and on the seas and oceans; we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air</em>. In both of these extracts, Churchill explains how the combined power resulting from the collaboration with their allies like France could channel the ultimate victory over the threat to freedom that the Gestapo and the Nazis represented.

The gift in question is the parson's freehold, an ecclesiastic benefit that will allow Elinor’s Romantic interest, Edward Ferrars to have a steady source of income that will make him a suitable choice for Lucy Steele. He had secretly promised to wed her when he was younger and although he does not love her he intends to marry her out of respect and moral principles. Edward is not too handsome and quite shy but Elinor knows that behind such characteristics he is a loving, moral person who deeply cares for others and is loyal to them, at the expense of his own welfare. She loves him deeply though secretly and is quite dismayed and shocked when she learn Colonel Brandon’s gesture. The situation is quite a conundrum, since Colonel Brandon loves Marianne, who loves the young, handsome, charming and dashing John Willoughby and Elinor loves Edward Ferrars. She is in the middle of the whole ordeal and she is tasked with announcing the “good news” to Ferrars which makes it even more, painful for her. This is a pivotal moment in the plot as it forces Elinor to question her own inflexible adherence to sense. Even though she is willing to avoid a confrontation and to remain neutral and polite her love, that is to say her sensibility will force her to display her feelings. In other words, just as much as Marianne’s Romantic disappointments have forced her to have more sense, Elinor’s impossible situation will force her to have more sensibility (as they will also force Edward, who is very much like her though due to different reasons).
The allusion, "Hades", references the Greek God of Death and "shores of Acheron" references the outermost portion of Hell. This affects the mood by dampening the audience's spirits and foreshadowing future events.
