Answer: D. Civilization did not emerge in any one place; instead, it developed simultaneously in Mesopotamia, the Nile River of Egypt, and the Indus Valley.
Parallelism is the use of elements that are grammatically the same, or similar in their construction or meaning. It is used to add rhythm to a sentence, increase clarity and make it more persuasive.
In this case, the three examples (Mesopotamia, the Nile River of Egypt, and the Indus Valley) are listed together and with the same structure, maintaining parallelism.
The correct answer is option letter B (a successful and hardworking businessman). By definition, a <u>stereotype</u> is a very firm idea about what a particular type of person is like. In this case, the most likely stereotype one can spot in the phrase presented above is the one of <em>a successful and hardworking businessman</em>. One usually has the idea of a businessman who is constantly working or even overworking. In fact, the narrator <u>exaggerates</u> this idea of the hardworking businessman by using a literary technique called “exaggeration”. For instance, the amount of emails that Fred Johnson will be checking (“<em>checking the four thousand emails</em>”).
