to catch the poor - infinitive

Catch is in the infinitive form because it is before to. An infinitive is when the main form of the verb is preceded by the word to. Similar to a main verb, it expresses an action.

covered with ancient artwork - participle

A participle phrase begins with a verb and often can include other modifiers. A participle is used as an adjective in the sentence. In this sentence, "covered with ancient artwork" is used to describe the walls.

A gerund is a verb that is used as a noun in a sentence. A gerund often ends in -ing. For example, Swimming is my favorite sport. In this sentence no one is actually doing the action of swimming. Swimming is a thing/sport in this sentence.

Which of the following demonstrates proper parallelism? Question options: Julie judges people both by what they say and by their
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Julie judges people both by their words and by their actions.

Explanation:

Parallelism refers to the use of sentence components that are grammatically identical or similar in structure, sound, meaning, or meter. It is considered to be one of the fundamental principles of grammar and rhetoric, adding symmetry, effectiveness, and balance to the text. Examples of parallelism can be found in literary works and everyday conversations alike. A well-known example of parallelism is the Latin saying translated as<em> I </em><u><em>came</em></u><em>, I </em><u><em>saw</em></u><em>, I </em><u><em>conquered</em></u><em>.</em> Here we have the repetition of the past simple tense.

Two sentences we were given are a good example of the presence and the lack of parallelism. There is no parallelism in <em>Julie judges people both by what they say and by their actions. </em>It would've been better had the sentence said <em>Julie judges people both </em><u><em>by what they say</em></u><em> and </em><u><em>by what they do</em></u><em>.</em> There we have identical structures. <em>Julie judges people both </em><u><em>by their words</em></u><em> and </em><u><em>by their actions</em></u> is a good example of parallelism.
