marshall27 [118]3 years ago
6 0
Parallel construction is when multiple parts of a sentence have the same grammatical structure. Let's analyze these.

FYI: a gerund is a verb used as a noun by adding -ing.
infinitives are the "to _" forms.

a. "Being happy," "Being sad," and "Being depressed"
All of these parts have the same grammatical structure, (gerund-adjective) so it is a parallel construction.

b. "The end" doesn't fit with the other two parts. (it's a noun but not a gerund)

c. "Dancing" doesn't fit with the other two parts. (it's a gerund but not a verb)

d. "To get rich" doesn't fit with the other two parts. (it's an infinitive, not a gerund)

Correct answer: a

When does plagiarism become copyright infringement?.
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Plagiarism applies when ideas are copied; <u>copyright violation</u> occurs only when a specific fixed expression (e.g., sequence of words, use of an image) is copied. Avoiding plagiarism is about properly apportioning intellectual credit; copyright is about maintaining revenue streams.

I think it is storm, because "kaze" means wind and storm is usually windstorm. Ask me any "Japanese" words because I'm from Japan. Hope it helps!

In "Two Men Arrive in a Village" by Zadie Smith, a little boy exhibits "pointless courage when he confronts the two
Sever21 [200]

Answer: King Frog

Explanation:

Smith describes a village brought to chaos by two invaders, and the pointless courage that the women showed by confronting them to protect their daughters despite not being able to stop the two men from retaliating and coming back over and over again. It´s said that there´s always a boy that confronts one of the invaders, showing the same kind of pointless courage. In her town, that boy was a fourteen-year-old who was called King Frog because he used to say that the most powerful in the village was a big ugly toad able to scare even the little boy´s father.
