Answer:

plays that are tragic

Explanation:

Parallelism is arranging words of identical syntactical constructions in sentences.

We need a parallel, i.e. identical, construction for the phrase plays that are funny. Obviously, the word <u>when</u> does not help to create parallelism in the corresponding phrase. The solution is simple: we should repeat the beginning of the phrase and change the adjective.

The result is a sentence with a parallel structure:

<u>Plays that are funny</u> are more popular than <u>plays that are tragic</u>.

According to the parados, the ancient Greeks believed that the gods punished __________ people.
Nuetrik [128]
<span>According to the parados, the ancient Greeks believed that the gods punished boastful people. Pride is one of seven deadly sins, so it is obvious that it is something you may be punished for. If you are way too proud, and boast about your successes too much, you are likely to be punished, according to the ancient Greek beliefs. There is no reason to punish a joyful and humble person, and if you fear and revere gods, that is always a good thing.</span>
