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.

Hello. You forgot to enter the answer options. The options are:

Progress continued to be made in the years that followed.

Progress was blocked in the years that followed.

The findings were dismissed and research began again.

The findings were published and the research was ended.

Answer:

Progress continued to be made in the years that followed.

Explanation:

As we look at the facts presented in "The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone: I've Got It! I've Got It!" we can see that the interpretation of the hieroglyphics on the rosette stone was not something achieved overnight, but it was a long, slow process, the result of much study, research and perseverance, which progressed more and more as time passed. As the years passed, the more elements that facilitated the interpretation of the hieroglyphs were discovered. For this reason, we can say that the correct answer to your question is "Progress continued to be made in the years that followed."
