The feeling invoked by the author is to show the freedom of accepting of fate by the narrator.
Explanation:
The feelings described here are numerous in small amount of time. The feeling of the narrator is at first described to be strangely fearless.
This makes one think that there is something to fear which is why it has become fearless.
But then the author describes the feeling by the use of imagery and we understand that Phil is in fact drowning and these emotions are his understanding that he will now not survive at all.
There is no chance to survive so he accepts his fate and feels strangely free.
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.
