Answer:
B). An expression of disapproval or condemnation.
Explanation:
The 'word-choice' always play a vital role in conveying the intended meaning, message, or idea that the author wishes to convey.
In the given sentence, the best definition of the underlined word 'censure' would be 'an expression of disapproval or condemnation' as per the context of the statement. The word <u>'censure' implies 'reflecting strong and formal disapproval or a severe public criticism'</u> <u>that best fits and accomplishes the context of the sentence.</u> Therefore, the sentence would imply that 'it's in the fate of those toiling employees who are driven more by the fear of evil instead of being fascinated towards the 'prospect of good' and exposure to 'having the ability to express their strong/severe disapproval or disagreement to this toiling labor'(censure)'. Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.
The wife of Bath in Chaucer's tale makes good use of suspense to build her tale. Her narration may seem to meander, but all elements are essential to her tale. She first presents mern's impatience, both in the friar's complaint and in the lusty knight's behavior toward the maiden whom he rapes. The Queen works further on his patience by giving him a year and a day to find the answer to her question. Also, the wife's introduction about the existence of fairies during the reign of King Arthur prepares us for the magical transformation of the old woman at the end of the story. Next comes a lengthy description of women's desires and faults, and again the reader is taken to a magical real through the narration of Ovid's fable. The old woman the knight meets provides him the answer to the Queen's question but agan applies suspense by withholding her request until it can be witnessed by all the ladies gathered in court. After the wedding, the old woman replies to the knight's protests regarding their marriage. It appears that the knight must resign himself to be wedded to this old, ugly woman; but then she surprises him by asking him to choose between having a beautiful or a faithful wife; he puts himself under her rule by asking her to make the choice, and thus the old woman proves the truth of her answer to the Queen's question and rewards her husband's humbleness by becoming beautiful and remaining a faithful wife.

Answer:
3). Yet it is certain that the power to produce this delight does not reside in nature, but in man, or in a harmony of both.
Explanation:
'Nature' is one of the transcendentalist essays of Emerson. The philosophical insight that he reflects in the given selection would be 'the harmony existing between the human and nature.' This vision is reflected through the third statement most appropriately. He talks about this interrelation between nature and man produced by God that brings about unity among the two. He calls this harmony as the 'power to delight' that encourages us as the 'nature is painted by the spirit of our mood.'
