<span>A parallel construction refers to the fact that the same form of a word or phrase is used in all of its examples. So, having this in mind, the correct answer is A. being happy, being sad, being depressed, because all of these constructions have a gerund being + an adjective. The other examples aren't as uniform as the first one is, which is why they are not parallel. </span>
<span>While I was changing my shirt, I d**n near gave my kid sister Phoebe a buzz, though. I certainly felt like talking to her on the phone. Somebody with sense and all. But I couldn't take a chance on giving her a buzz, because she was only a little kid and she wouldn't have been up, let alone anywhere near the phone. I thought of maybe hanging up if my parents answered, but that wouldn't've worked, either. They'd know it was me. My mother always knows it's me. She's psychic. But I certainly wouldn't have minded shooting the cr*p with old Phoebe for a while.</span>
Answer:
This is expressing the material wealth and excess of the 1920s.

At the time after the war, stock markets were high and people began to experience more national wealth and extravagance, a huge difference when compared to the previous years, which encompassed WWI. This shows how things were so extravagant on the outside, but it almost foreshadows the period of depression and excessively impoverished time to come in the following years.
I hope this helps! Have a nice day :)
