The correct answer is D. This sentence is a perfect example of parallel structure because either after and before AND it in both cases uses simple past tense verbs which are LEARNED AND TRAVELED. The other sentences never show parallelism due to their units are never the same. For example, in letter A , it uses a verb in simple present WALKS AND a progressive tense verb which is TAKING. So, to sum up, for a sentence to be considered parallel, it must be coherent in its structure and internal words. They need to have harmony and unity in tenses as well.

Which statement best describes the central conflict in Amy Tan’s "Two Kinds”?
hram777 [196]

The statement that best describes the major conflict in Amy Tan's "Two kinds" is D. It is a character vs. character conflict, as the mother wishes for an obedient daughter, while the daughter desires independence.

The narrator refuses to learn to play the piano, not because she doesn't' like it but because she is determined to show her mother she is no prodigy nor could become one, because she wants to be who she is and not what her mother tell her to be.

The story of an hour, why might it be considered realistic
Finger [1]
If you have to write about this (never read this) but you could be broad with what you say. Use things such as the timeline of the story, the actions the characters do and the emotions they feel. Of these things are possible in real life then of course it's realistic.
