Answer:

The Host brought a bargain so that all of them will have supper at his inn once again. What this means is that he will actually receive money for twenty-nine meals when they return to his inn.

Explanation:

The Canterbury Tales is narrated by Chaucer. The Host is described by Chaucer as "there was no manly attribute he lacked". He is used to provide contrast among the pilgrims. The Pardoner is described as effeminate and while others are seen as preying on weaker people or falling victim to their own vices.

He gives the pilgrims something that would make them to join the contest that he had proposed. He brings the bargain to them. He also reminds them that they will not find pleasure if they ride alone.

The Canterbury Tales is known to be a collection of 24 stories which was written by Geoffrey Chaucer between 1387 and 1400.

Answer:

In line 6, the word bite <u>D. suggests that time is something to be consumed and enjoyed.</u>

Explanation:

Aunt Imogen is a character in Edwin Arlington Robinson's poem of the same name. She comes once a year to her sister's house, where she is adored by her niece and nephews. For the children, being visited by Aunt Imogen was beyond comparison. She is unique, and they adore her! Even though she is to stay for only four weeks, the time they spend with her must be thoroughly enjoyed. I believe the author uses the word bite to express precisely that. When we eat our favorite food, we take "great bites", we consume it rather fast, but in utter joy. The same goes for the time they spend together. The "great bites of time" are consumed as their favorite food would be: completely and pleasantly.

Bradford describes the natives as barbarians and savages in his description of them in his work Of Plymouth Plantation. Since I don't have the passage you need, I'm assuming that Squanto and Massasoit are different.
