Create a modern tale which mimics the structure and purpose of Chaucer’s tale. Write from the point of view of a contemporary tr

aveler, heading for a destination of worship (not necessarily religious) with a group of friends and acquaintances. For your pilgrimage, you must do the following:
Choose a topic (listed below).

Include a PROLOGUE in which you introduce the circumstances of the journey and the characters involved (no less than three, no more than five
Write a linking prologue plus a tale by the character. Employ ONE of the multiple types of tales used by Chaucer – i.e. fable, exemplum, sermon, romance, etc. These will of course be a great deal shorter than any of Chaucer’s tales due to space available.
Your tale(s) should have some moral truth, value, or advice to offer.
Edit your work before writing a final draft. You must use appropriate punctuation and grammar. That this is in verse is not an excuse to abandon mechanical accuracy. (You will be required to peer review and submit your reviewer’s critique as part of your final submission.
You will be graded on: how well you adhere to the stated criteria; imagination and creativity; skill; humor; presentation; mechanical accuracy.
Possible themes to consider writing your tale:
Confidence vs. insecurities
Overcoming fears
Appreciation/ gratitude
Acceptance/ tolerance
Kindness
Honesty
Overcoming adversities
Loss of innocence/ Coming of age (Learning about the harsh realities of the world)
Sacrifice (What will you do or say to save/ help someone else?)
Nature vs. nurture
Fall from grace (i.e., opening Pandora’s Box, tasting the forbidden fruit, etc.)
Love (platonic - romantic)
Friendship (How far will you go? Standing up for friends, etc.)
Fate/ destiny (Are you in control of your fate? Is there such a thing?)
Revenge (Good vs. bad outcomes, etc.)
Role of women, minorities, etc.
Choices and possibilities
Guilt vs. forgiveness
Family bond/ loyalty

Click on the box below to choose the correct sentence pattern for the sentence below.
tester [92]

Answer:

There is good reason to be thankful.

E-V-S (Expletive-Verb-Subject)

Explanation:

Unlike most sentences, this sentence does not follow the usual pattern of Subject + Verb, instead, it begins with an Expletive, then a verb and lastly the subject.

<em>There</em> is the expletive because it is a word without meaning that does not add to the sense of the sentence, and that, instead, is inserted to give emphasis, it acts as an intensifier.

<em>Is</em> is a conjugation of the verb “be” in present and it indicates the existence of the subject.

Lastly, <em>good reason to be thankful</em> is the subject because it is the thing that is being discussed in the sentence.
