why does the "the monk's tale" fit the category of parable? a. it is told with rhyme and rhythm b. it focuses on biblical charactersc. it portrays people realistically d. it is filled with religious connotations.

A parable is an account of a simulated or a fictitious event from which an important truth, a moral teaching or a religious principle are inferred by means of a comparison. Among the options that you have been given, I would contend that the most suitable one is the C: It portrays people realistically. The work does refer to biblical characters, it has religious connotations, and it features a particular rhyme scheme, but, as a parable, it aims at presenting information in a simple, understandable and convincing way, and it does so by portraying the various biblical, historical and mythological figures succinctly, accurately and realistically.
