Why do you think that the Pardoner is so upfront about the mechanics of his chicanery (the use of trickery to achieve a politica

l, financial, or legal purpose)? If he wants to dupe the pilgrims into buying his phony pardons, why does he expose to them his sham? What might this say about the Pardoner’s character?

The Pardoner is very frank about his cheating because he is proud of the way he acts and knows that deceiving people with religious concepts is very easy, even if those people know they are being deceived.

We can arrive at these answers because:

  • The Pardoner is a corrupt clergyman who exploits the faith of people with false religious beliefs to seize their wealth.
  • He's good at cheating and takes great pride in it showing all the cheating techniques he has.
  • While wanting to explore the pilgrims, he shows off what he has achieved through the exploration of the faithful.

That's because he knows how people can be manipulated and deceived through religious concepts, even though these people know they are falling into a trap, as clergy can encourage fear and despair, leading people to give away what they have. That's why he's frank about his cheating.

Shane attended the Mayor's speech about parking rate increases, while Mary listened to the speech on the radio. Later, Mary said
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

The difference in the messages Mary and Shane received most likely resulted from the fact that <u>Mary and Shane received the message through different channels</u>.

Explanation:

There are essentially three types of communication: verbal, written, and nonverbal. They can be broken down into different channels. For instance, verbal communication can take place in person or through the phone.

In Mary and Shane's case, they both had access to verbal communication via different channels. Shane was there listening to the Mayor in person while Mary listened to the speech on the radio. That in itself might not have provoked different opinions in both listeners. But Shane was also given access to nonverbal communication. That is why he said, "the way the Mayor avoided looking at his constituents" is what made him think the Mayor supported an increase in rates. <u>Eye contact is one of the channels for nonverbal communication. Since Mary did not have access to it, she could not have known better. Receiving the message through different channels is what caused the difference in interpretation by Mary and Shane.</u>
