Question

On a certain evening in the 14th century there alighted at the Tabbard Inn, Southwark, a poet named Geoffrey Chaucer. Entering the inn, Chaucer, finds it occupied by a number of people bent on a pilgrimage to Canterbury, there to visit the shrine of 'holy blissful martyr', St. Thomas Becket. Chance alone had brought these people together for it was the custom of pilgrims to wait at some friendly inn until a sufficient company was gathered together to make the journey pleasant and safe from robbers who might be encountered on the way. Chaucer joins the company which included all classes of English society from the Oxford scholar to the Drunken Miller and accepts gladly their invitation to go with them on the morrow. At supper the jovial host of the Tabbard Inn suggests that to enliven the journey each member of the company shall tell four tails two while going and two on the return journey on whatever subject shall suit him best. The host will travel with them as the master of ceremonies and whoever tells the best story shall be given a fine supper at the Tabbard Inn,at the general expense, when they all come back again- a shrewd bit of business and a fine Idea as the pilgrims all agree. This is the plan that lies behind The Canterbury Tales and though the great work was never completed ,Chaucer left enough of the tales to give us a picture that will never fade of English life at that age, its work and play, its needs and dreams ,its fun and sympathy and its delight in life. 1) Which of the following statements regarding Geoffrey Chaucer is correct ?​
