Answer:

The novelty of the theme and its treatment enthralled the audience.

Explanation:

Geoffrey Chaucer's "Canterbury tales" is a collection of tales narrated by the thirty pilgrims on their way to Canterbury. The idea was that each pilgrim will tell four stories, two on the way to Canterbury and two on the way back. This was written in Middle English, which made it easier for the common people to understand it.

In these tales, Chaucer used his characters to draw out the issues relating to political, social or even religious themes, uncommon topics for the people of that age to openly talk about. The description of these themes through the tales were true but were not openly pointed out in public by anyone. Special case is the corruption of the church, the poverty all are real life issues that were ignored. Also, the characterization of people from different backgrounds made it even more popular for the common masses can easily relate to them.

Choose one of Schlosser’s two claims: “the fast-food industry resembles the manufacturing business” or “teenagers are the ideal
loris [4]
The fast food has an organized way of making food for the customers. They also have complete equipment from food preparation, distribution and selling of food. The manager as boss directly applies management of workers which gives the business good standing to make the business work. This routine resembles other businesses and is not far from the organizational flow. 

Teenagers are the ideal people for the business because they have fast response. They think quickly and can follow the procedures given to them. They have enough energy to perform their tasks.

In at least 100 words, explain the significance of Bartleby's mantra "I would prefer not to" in Melville's short story "Bartleby
galina1969 [7]

The choice of this phrase has a paradoxical meaning in a way that Bartleby refuses to do the task asked from him and the expression of this rejection. It is a refusal, but at the same time it is a polite refusal because even when his boss asks again "You will not?", he answers again with "I prefer not". The phrase emphasizes Bartleby's passive resistance. The different use of the phrase, of course could have had a different effect in the story. It might cause a different demonstration and a different ending for the story. The boss could have replied differently because the refusal would be not polite then. However, the choice is intentional because of the development of the story. Therefore, it is suitable in its own way.
