Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

The lines describing the time of the year are:

When April with his showers sweet with fruit ----- 1

The drought of March has pierced unto the  

root                                                                      ---------2

When Zephyr also has, with his sweet breath, ----------5

Quickened again, in every holt and heath, ----------------6

Then do folk long to go on pilgrimage ---------------------13

Chaucer focuses on these sensory details because he is trying to emulate some Latin and Greek authors who introduce their poems by creating inspiration through a muse. Chaucer then chooses to create inspiration by describing a natural phenomenon of the earth replenishing itself.

From the lines above, the season of the year is spring just after winter. The description implies spring as a symbol of rebirth and new life. A time when the earth replenishes itself after the dry air of winter, a time when there is rain, fresh air and when people long to go on pilgrimage.

Lady bird [3.3K]
<span>Eating, like any other body task, requires discipline. You should not just eat because the food is present but you should eat because you need to satisfy your body requirements. Of course sometimes you feel the food is delicious and want to have some more. Well, it’s normal but whenever you are expecting some tasty dishes in plenty, you need to be prepared both physically and mentally. To avoid wastage, you need to reduce the food that you consume prior to such an event. If your friends are victims of the same, ask them to follow that advice. Also, tell them it’s important for them to construct an eating schedule/plan. All these solutions, however, require personal discipline.</span>
