Answer:

Letter B is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The Canterbury Tales is a book written by English Geoffrey Chaucer; it was written in Middle English between 1387 and 1400. There are 24 stories in the book.

The correct answer is B since the pilgrims gather south London, in a town called Southwark, and they want to visit the St. Thomas à Becket shrine that is located in Canterbury; this trip is the beginning of the book since the characters decide to hold a storytelling competition to help themselves make the road lighter.
