The correct answer is Chaucer criticizes the notion that divine forgiveness

depends on giving money.

Explanation:

In this excerpt from The Canterbury Tales, the author Geoffrey Chaucer indirectly refers to the sale of indulgence or the way priests and other religious leaders pardoned people for their sins based on money. This is mentioned in "My holy pardon here can save you all... as you make offerings of gold and silver coin..." because he illustrates how money or offerings were a condition for forgiveness and for people to go to heaven "you shall enter to the bliss of heaven". Moreover, this is a satire because Chaucer uses humor to criticize the practices of the Catholic church.

How are Montags actions contrasted to those of the passengers?
Maurinko [17]
Montag carries a bible while he is on the subway and starts to read it as a distraction from the Dentifrice advertisement. Montag is affected by the annoying jingle while the rest of the passengers were "pounded into submission".  His outburts regarding the advertisement and the book he's carrying make him someone the passengers are wary of and they begin to move away from him.
