The pardoner is the last pilgrim to be portrayed in the prologue. His estate belongs to the court of Rome. This gentle pardoner is thought to be worthy of respect; "He had a scholarly look" and "He was an honest person." Nevertheless, his pretension not to care for riches and his being "an unethical man" oppose the positive idea created. The inference that can be made from the excerpt is that he was an unethical man.
The statement that has a prepositional phase here is:
Early pilots performed stunts
Explanation:
A prepositional phase is usually found in the beginning of the sentence.
The use of the preposition is to draw out the meaning of a noun or a pronoun with respect to another object in the sentence.
The common examples of such phases include Before, After, By, Under, Over and many other such examples which are there to accentuate a relation thus given.
Here, the use is simple.
The word Early is the prepositional phase which makes the connection between pilots and 'stunts' that is different from the one made by the word 'performed' between them.
