The words from the above excerpt which most convey the mood are:

“dark hangings through the blood-tinted panes”

“produced so wild a look”

These words helps in creating a dark mood.

The story “The Masque of the Red Death" by Edgar Allan Poe is literally and allegorically about death. Prince Prospero wanted to hide from death but is left not rescued from it. He arranged a party where he invited people from his kingdom. He ordered to decorate the halls with single colors each. The last hall was colored black which symbolizes death and the windows were painted red. There was an ebony clock which strikes everyone’s attention at the passing of every hour. Though people were busy in the celebrating the party with music and orchestra but at every hour when the clock rings which caught everyone’s attention. The tone in which Poe describes the rooms, the clock, the ringing of the clock, the activities of the people and the entry of death in the party gives an insight about the play that death is inevitable. Death is the central theme of the play. The Poe wants to focus on the issue that no one can be rescued from death by applying any means.

Which sentence contains an error in parallel structure?
Leya [2.2K]

In the sentence that has a parallel structure, the error is given in option (B). The business manager is bright, extremely creative, and generous with her thoughts.

<h3>How does parallel structure work?</h3>

A stylistic device known as the parallel structure is a grammatical formation made up of two or more clauses, phrases, or words that have the same length and grammatical form.

Parallelism is comparable to it. By maintaining the rhythm of the lines, sentences with a parallel structure consist of a number of phrases or clauses that begin and end almost in the same way.

These structures are repeats that provide the readers with a fun opportunity to take in and comprehend thoughts, facts, and concepts.

Due to the way it exploits word patterns and connects them to one another, parallel structure improves readability and fosters writing fluency.

It gives the appearance of sophisticated language, particularly in literature and advertising. Parallel structures also synchronize, repeat, and stress the writers' words and ideas.
