Answer 2

C. It provides Chaucer with an opportunity to write about characters that represent a wide range of social classes.

The central premise of a pilgrimage in "The Canterbury Tales" allows Chaucer to bring together characters from various social classes, providing him with the opportunity to explore and satirize the social and moral aspects of medieval society. This framing device allows for a diverse cast of characters, each with their own unique stories and perspectives.
