From Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales excerpt that contradicts the claim made in the third line that the prioress speaks fluent French is "For French of Paris was not hers to know."
In the General prologue, Chaucer satirizes several characters from various classes and professions. Beginning with the highest class to lower. The first character whom Chaucer introduces is the Prioress who is a nun. She is the first among the female to be described, the first question that evokes in the reader's mind is that such higher religious clergy doesn't take a vow of leading a simple life? Hence, Chaucer satirizes the church, as the members of the church belonged from the upper class. The prioress took advantage from the poor for her own good. She was very well '<em>dainty</em>' and was well-dressed. Being known as <em>"Madame Eglantyne"</em>, she was so pretentious that she hardly knew any words of French.
In The Scarlet Ibis, there are many instances of foreshadowing through motifs that we see at the end all represents Doodle's death. One example is the Ibis itself, which had represented Doodle since the beginning. It was injured, just like him, and died, which he would eventually do. On a deeper level, the passage discusses the seasons. Originally, Doodle was born in the Spring. However, he begins to learn how to walk in the Summer a few years later. Doodle begins to get worse in Autumn because he has less training, and eventually, he dies in the Winter.

Explanation:
In order for a sentence to be correct, it needs to make sense. For example, if we were to look at B, it doesn't really sound right. "David wishes leaving the room." Rather, he WISHES he could leave the room, or WISHED that he could leave the room, depending on the context of the sentence.
