What contributed to the creation of a variety of characters were the trips Chaucer made between France, Italy, and England as a government official, as shown in option A.
<h3>Who was Chaucer?</h3>
- He was one of the most important medieval writers.
- He was the author of The Canterbury Tales.
- He was the father of English literature.
Chaucer was very easy to create characters very different from each other and with a lot of personalities. This talent was influenced by the number of people he met during his travels. These trips happened frequently, as Chaucer was a diplomat and traveled to France, Italy, and England on business.

Answer:
Vegetation grows in tropical climates, grows abundantly, and is lush.
Explanation:
Pretty simple once you try saying it out loud.
Answer:
1. Whom was met by you?
2. To whom was the book given by you? OR Whom was the book given to by you?
3. By who were you called a list?
Explanation:
1. This is more simple. You simply find the verb "meet", determine the tense using the auxiliary verb "did" (past tense); from this you get "met". Then identify the subject ("you"), and string it all together with the passive voice form of questions: object + verb + by + subject, or "Whom was met by you?".
2. For this question, the original active voice question was grammatically wrong: it should be "To whom did you give the book?" or "Whom did you give the book to?" Using the same method mentioned in question 1, you'll get the answer.
3. This is a little different from the other two questions, since it's asking about the identity of the subject, not the object. This means the sentence structure should be similar, but with the subject moved to the start. This could technically be done to all of the questions, but most people use the "object + verb to be + verb + by + subject" form for finding the object.
Anyways, back to the question: the form used should be "by + subject + verb to be + object + verb". This explains the answer.
Sorry if I didn't explain the answers that well

I always get "The Primary Purpose of this passage is to?" wrong on Reading Comp. I'm guessing this is hurting my score as it seems like a simple questions and I always get it wrong.
Any idea on how to nail this??? I started taking notes during the section and it helps. I know what the passage is about, but trying to stick it into one of those GMAT choices is difficult. Suggestions?

Main Idea/Primary Purpose Questions:
Many people believe there is no difference between the main or central idea of the passage and the primary purpose of the author of the passage. This is simply not true. Let's take a look at the subtle but important difference between them:
Main Idea
The question might look something like this:
"Which of the following best states the central idea of the passage?"
"Which of the following most accurately states the main idea of the passage?"
"Which of the following is the principal topic of the passage?"
"The main topic of the passage is...."
Primary Purpose
The question might look like this:
"The primary purpose of this passage is to..."
"The primary purpose of the passage as a whole is to..."
"The primary focus of this passage is on which of the following?"
"The main concern of the passage is to..."
"In the passage, the author is primarily interested in...."
"The passage is chiefly concerned with..."
i think this is helpful to
