This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:
All of the following are parallel in structure with “crying over the loss of my boyfriend” except __________.
A) I felt so bad yesterday afternoon
B) texting all of my girl friends
C) eating all the ice cream in the freezer
D) listening to my collection of sad music
Answer:
The correct answer is option A) I felt so bad yesterday afternoon.
Explanation:
If you pay attention, all the options, including the example, contain verbs ending in<em> ing.
</em>
Option A does not have the same structure, therefore that is the option that does not fit with the rest.
Words ending in <em>ing </em>can be the following: gerunds, verbal nouns, present participles. In the case of the example we have the ending <em>ing</em> used as a gerund, where the verb is used as if it were a noun.
Given this information we can say that the correct answer is option A.
B. It was hard to keep up with the <u>exploits</u> of his brilliant, imaginative mind.
Symbolize
The first pair consists of a noun and a verb. In this pair, the verb 'empower'
is formed by adding a pre fix to the noun 'power'. The process of adding a prefix or suffix is called 'derivation' in linguistics. In the same way, in the next pair we are supposed to form a verb from the noun, 'symbol'. So we will repeat the process of derivation and add the suffix 'ize' at the end of symbol to form a verb. The answer will be symbolize. Symbolize means to represent or explain an idea with the help of a symbol or icon.
