It is not an uncommon estimate of Chaucer that he must be counted among the few greatest of English poets. In range of interest he is surpassed only by Shakespeare. He was recognized already in the Renaissance, when it came to England, as the Father of English Poetry. He was a man of wide learning and wrote with ease on religion, philosophy, ethics, science, rhetoric. No man has more completely summed up an age than Chaucer has his, yet the people of his great poems, are revealed as men and women are in all times.
Master of verse, as Chaucer was, he introduced into English poetry many verse forms: the heroic couplet (in which form. most of The Canterbury Tales is written), verse written in iambic pentameter, rhyming aa, bb, cc, etc.--a form. that was to be very important in the eighteenth century; the rime royal, a seven-line stanza in iambic pentameters, rhyming ababbcc (Troilus and Criseyde); the terza rima, three-line stanzas, rhyming aba, bcb cdc, etc.(which he imitated from Dante, in some of his minor poems); and the eight-line iambic pentameter stanza, rhyming ababbcbc (The Monk's Tale).
This passage does not indicate that Chaucer wrote on the topic of ______.
A.philosophy
B.religion
C.rhetoric
D.politics
A) counted on
B) came up with
C) dropped out of
D) wasaccountable for

The newspapers, like the cinema and usually the radio, expressed popular culture, and observers talked as though this were the only culture which now existed. The flood of the message was supposed to have submerged the standards of previous times, but this was far from being the case. There was also a middle culture and a high culture—the distinctions between them resting on levels of sophistication (middlebrow and highbrow), not on class. The middlebrow culture was the least interesting, a repetition of past patterns interspersed with lamentations against anything new, either above or below. Those who condemned James Joyce or Picasso also disapproved of the cinema. These middlebrows felt more menaced than before, hence the intolerance which contrasted oddly with their professions of liberalism. Original artists and thinkers were constantly, though ineffectually, harassed. The works of three great British writers—Joyce, D.H. Lawrence, T.E. Lawrence—came under the legal bail of pornography. The organizer of an art exhibition teamed to expect, in England, a visit from the police. In Paris and Berlin he took precautions against riot.

A.Art dealers have always been led by economic self-interest to attribute any unsigned paintings of merit to recognized masters rather than to obscure artists.
B.When a painting is originally created, there are invariably at least some eyewitnesses who see the artist at work, and thus questions of correct attribution cannot arise at that time.
C.There are not always clearly discernible differences between the occasional inferior work produced by a master and the very best work produced by a lesser talent.
D.Attribution can shape perception inasmuch as certain features that would count as marks of greatness in a master"s work would be counted as signs of inferior artistry if a work were attributed to a minor artist.
E.Even though some masters had specialists assist them with certain detail work, such as depicting lace, the resulting works are properly attributed to the masters alone.
