The plight that Hrothgar was facing was that of;

  • Having his men eliminated by Grendel. At this point, he had lost a lot of men who dared to challenge Grendel. This can be deduced from his words to Beowulf in these lines;

<em>What grief in Heorot Grendel hath caused me,  </em>

<em />

What horror unlooked-for, by hatred unceasing.

Waned is my war-band, wasted my hall-troop;

<em>Weird hath offcast them to the clutches of Grendel.</em>

(Note that the English Language used here is not the contemporary version)

In these lines, Hrothgar laments the horror Grendel had caused in his rulership. He had caused him a lot of grief due to his constant attacks.

He explains to Beowulf that his war band was wasted and waned because of Grendel's consistent grip on them.

This was the expression of the king who was now tired of the acts of Grendel in his kingdom.

Explanation:

1. The feature of medieval life reflected here is the acceptance of the church's authority.

The Canterbury Tales has about 24 stories with about 17,000 lines. The work was written by Geoffrey Chaucer Geoffrey around a period of 1387 and 1400. 

The Canterbury Tales is medieval literature and has great poetic power and entertainment value. The tales gives insight into the different social classes of that century, including their clothes, languages and the recreational activities of the time.

2. Based on the excerpt taken from this book, I can say that the statement that describes the satire here is The Pardoner’s disregard for the poor reveals the Church’s hypocrisy.

Chaucer used Satire to expose the hypocrisy of people and institutions who instead of reliving the poor from their poverty and leading them on a part of spirituality, try to make profits out of their suffering and show less concern about their suffering. The pardoner is a part of the church and should share in the suffering of others but instead he insists on getting the best food and drinks from people in poverty. He also sells redemption at a price

Imagine that you have been assigned a project on biomes in your science class. Which nonfiction text best matches
ra1l [238]

Answer:

Biomes around the world, written by University of Chicago environmental scientists in 2018 for high school classes

Explanation:

This is the best option because the first option was written by a student on a blog and is therefore not as reliable as the second source.

The last two options do not talk directly about biomes, which is what the project is about, making them poor options as well.

The second source is reliable and pertains to the topic, making it the best choice.
