Answer:

The code of chivalry followed by knights in the Middle Ages entailed loyalty to God, the king, and one's lady. A knight was expected to show courage and courtesy and be true to his word.

Sir Gawain upholds the code throughout the plot of the narrative. Gawain’s actions throughout the narrative give evidence that he is a true knight as his chivalry is tested many times in the story.

He shows his loyalty when he steps forward to accept the Green Knight’s challenge in the place of Arthur. His courage and courtesy are reflected in his actions. He is a true knight, but he has his human weakness, as is seen when he falls prey to the temptations of Bertilak’s wife.

He does not tell Bertilak about the green girdle given by his wife to help him survive mortal attacks. However, he does not hide this fact, and he wears a green girdle as a constant reminder of his shame.

<u>Answer:</u>

The world of "Sir Gawain" and the "Green Knights" is governed by well defined codes of the behaviour. The "code of chivalry" helps in shaping the values and the "actions of sir Gawain" and the other characters in the poem. The ideas of the chivalry is derived from the "Christian concept of morality". The spiritual needs are promoted in the spiritually fallen world. The basic values of Christianity are explained and asked to seek by others.

Imagine that you are creating a blog to argue in favor of the benefits of recycling. Which three statements use an appropriate t
Marizza181 [45]

Recycling helps protect the environment, reduces the need for extracting (mining, quarrying, and logging), refining and processing raw materials. All of these create substantial air and water pollution. As recycling saves energy it also reduces greenhouse gas emissions, which helps to tackle climate change

Three statements which express the benefits of recycling are: 1) Recycling is a great way to conserve valuable resources that take time and energy for the earth to produce. 2) You don't want to waste stuff, do you? One of the best ways to avoid creating waste is to recycle or reuse old items. People who throw away items that can be recycled are to blame for global warming.
