It makes her a likable character as she tries to keep to herself the secret her husband told though she feels her blood raging inside her to let it out.  

Explanation:

In the story Wife of Bath, where the knight is trying to find out the one trait a woman wants/likes and wishes so as to save his life (a punishment awaiting him), he gets to know about a story where, a wife of man with donkey's ears growing under his hair asks her not to reveal about it to anyone. Eventually, her effort to keep it a secret vanishes and everybody gets to know about it.

In these lines, the Wife talks about how being together is one of the most crucial and important part of marriage. She boldly talks about how every woman cannot be unmarried all her life. She also talks about how women, who are not involved with men are considered white breads. She compares all wives with barley bread, with which Christ fed to lot of people.  

Her explanation makes the readers understand her honesty and sincerity. She wants to love her husband with all her heart by paying the debt of marriage to him. Her thoughts, so straight forward make us like her more because of her honest character.

Given that I don't know how exactly these have been copied down, it could be "we had to memorize washington’s farewell speech." or "<span>i have subscribed to cooking magazine for many years." I'd most likely say the second one though.</span>

Less food because fungi decompose dead things to fertilize plants. Less plants to eat. 
Then it will become a butterfly effect.

Read these lines from "The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll" and answer the question.
harkovskaia [24]
I'm kind of confused as to what is being asked.... but this is my best answer.
SOCIAL Prejudice, (maybe legal if we talk about the consequence to his actions)

why it cant be the others--->
racial ---- they say nothing about race here.
(MAYBE) legal----- from the passage, we can say that the guy is richhhhh, and he might be able to wave off the consequences of his murder. but then again you only analyze this passage so, probably not
environmental---- they don't mention the environment....

THE REASON WHY IT SHOULD BE SOCIAL- their social standings in this situation 
-diamond ring (if thats what they mean by diamond ring finger, it could mean something else as well) only the rich can afford, a cane too
- hotel society gathering... (rich)
-poor Hattie Carroll could be literal as well.
