What can be inferred from these lines describing the pardoner in chaucer's prologue to the canterbury tales?
he had a fine veronica sewed to cap.
his wallet lay before him in his lap, stuffed full of pardons brought from rome all hot.
he had a scholarly look.
he was an unethical man.
he was an honest person.
he pretended not to care for riches.
he cared about people's well-being.

Based on the given lines describing the pardoner in Chaucer's prologue to The Canterbury Tales, we can infer that the correct answer is B. He was an unethical man.

In the lines, it is mentioned that the pardoner had a fine veronica sewed to his cap, and his wallet was stuffed with pardons brought from Rome all hot. These details imply that the pardoner is trying to portray himself as a holy and righteous figure, selling pardons to people.

However, the use of the word "hot" suggests that these pardons were probably obtained through dishonest means and not legitimately earned. The veronica on his cap can also be seen as a symbol of his deceptive practices. These actions and appearances point towards the pardoner being unethical in his dealings.

Therefore, option B, "He was an unethical man," is the best inference that can be drawn from the given lines.

We can infer that the Pardoner is a wealthy man. However, we can also infer that he became rich by swindling people of their money - he sells them pardons for their sins, so each time they commit a sin, they can just come to him, buy a pardon, and all of a sudden, they are absolved of all their wrongdoings. 

From the passage given, it can be inferred that the pardoner pretended not to care for riches. This can be seen from the manner in which he carelessly exposed his purse and the money therein. His attitude showed that he didnt care much about the money.

Chaucer's character of the Pardoner is a man who's work is tricking people of their money by allowing them to touch a supposedly "holy" bone that is really from a normal animal. The Pardoner is wealthy from swindling people out of their money by promising them pardon for their sins and get them entrance into heaven if they gave their money to him. He has a nice hat and a wallet full of money or pardons as Chancer sarcastically refers to it.

From the passage given, it can be inferred that the pardoner pretended not to care for riches. This can be seen from the manner in which he carelessly exposed his purse and the money therein. His attitude showed that he didnt care much about the money.

The lines from The Canterbury Tales about the pardoner describes how he seems to have lots of money, enough to buy a hat with nice material with a nice fat wallet of pardons. This suggests that the pardoner is corrupt because in the time period Chaucer is writing, one could sell "pardons." You can conclude that the pardoner makes his money from selling holy forgiveness in the form of "pardons."

However, we can also infer that he became rich by swindling people of their money - he sells them pardons for their sins, so each time they commit a sin, they can just come to him, buy a pardon, and all of a sudden, they are absolved of all their wrongdoings.

Answer:
D.) California has the most plentiful resources for people who want a healthy lifestyle.

Explanation:
The poster named "CALIFORNIA the CORNUCOPIA of the WORLD ROOM for MILLIONS of IMMIGRANTS 43.795.000. ACRES of GOVERNMENT LANDS UNTAKEN RAILROAD & PRIVATE LAND FOR MILLIONS OF FARMERS!"

A poster’s job is to promote an idea, event, product or person. So here the poster of California promotes itself as a place full of resources that offers people staying there a healthy and peaceful lifestyle. It is a way of advertising and to spread the message. California is generally a good place to stay in. It is the best place for immigrants who seek to find a living for themselves. That’s what the poster would help to do, attract more immigrants to the place.
