Answer:

The pardoner tells a didactic tale to preach that greed is the root cause of all evil. The three young men he describes are shown as greedy, lecherous, boisterous, and blasphemous. To get across their sinful nature, the pardoner uses words such as pestilence, insolent, evil, gluttony, and treacherous. The tale goes on to show how the men’s greed for money gets them into trouble. Their foolishness is brought out when they proclaim that they will slay Death. The pardoner says the men are “drunken” and full of “rage” when they make this “grisly oath.” The choice of words shows how these three men are shown to be slaves of the seven deadly sins.

Answer: c. For example, in the novel her character says, "Women are supposed to be very calm generally: but women feel just as men feel; they need exercise for their faculties, and a field for their efforts, as much as their brothers do; they suffer from too rigid a restraint, too absolute a stagnation, precisely as men would suffer."

aev [14]

Answer:

A "The spring of 1998 was the Halley’s Comet of desert wildflower years." (lines 1–2)

Explanation:

This is the excerpt from Barbara Kingsolver's scientific essey "Called Out". It describes events in the spring of 1998 and gives insight on magnificent and complex life cycle of desert plants.

The given sentence provides description of the highway medians suggesting that there were unusually many flowers, rarely seen before.

That provides evidence to answer A. which claims that that spring was the Halley's Comet of desert wildflower years. Halley's Comet is a rare phenomenon that happens only once every 76 years, so by making this comparison, the author claims that what happened that spring was a true botanical rarity.
