In American society, romantic love is considered the main reason for people to marry. On the other hand, in some societies, roma

ntic love is considered a form of obsession or madness. In fact, even in many societies where "true love" is not considered a form of insanity, arranged marriages are still the norm. For example, in many cultures it's believed that marriage is basically an economic arrangement. Thus, a farmer needs a wife both to bear children and to share the farm work while raising new "hands" as additional farm labor. In other societies, marriage is mainly about cementing connections between families. Indeed, most marriages between members of European royal or aristocratic lineages were primarily aimed at creating trust, loyalty, and mutual obligations between privileged and powerful families. Which phrase signals a contrast between ideals about marriage? A. For example B. Indeed C. In other societies D. On the other hand

Which sentence has an error in parallel structure?
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

  • <em>C) The teacher assigned an essay in which students needed to have a strong thesis, to create a clear structure, and</em><u><em> </em></u><u><em>they </em></u><em>needed to make a logically progressive argument. </em>

The error is the use of <u><em>they</em></u> a second time.

Explanation:

To keep <em>parallel structure </em>in sentence you must use the same pattern of words after the conjuntions (for instance, and, or). Some of the parallelis that you must check is the use of the same kind of verbs:

  • progressive with progressive
  • infinitive with infinitive
  • past with past

<em>A) Charlotte didn't know which habit she found the most annoying: smack</em><em><u>ing</u></em><em> gum, tapp</em><em><u>ing</u></em><em> pencils, send</em><em><u>ing </u></em><em>text messages, or sleep</em><em><u>ing</u></em><em> in class.</em>

In that sentence all the verbs use the form <em>ing, </em>thus the parallel structure is correct.

<em>B) The principal could never understand why teachers were</em><em><u> late</u></em><em>, </em><em><u>failed</u></em><em> to turn in their lesson plans, and yet still </em><em><u>complained</u></em><em> incessantly all day long.</em>

All the verbs are in past tense. Thus, this is a correct parallel structre.

<em>C) The teacher assigned an essay in which students needed to have a strong thesis, to create a clear structure, and</em><em><u> they </u></em><em>needed to make a logically progressive argument.</em>

Although, the verb forms are correct, in parallel structures you do not repeat the pronoun.  Thus this form is<u> not a correct parallel structure</u>.

The error is repeating the pronoun <u><em>they.</em></u>

<em>D) Each day at work at the ice cream shop, Ben needed to </em><em><u>check</u></em><em> the inventory of ice cream, </em><em><u>insure </u></em><em>that all the workers showed up on time, and </em><em><u>modify</u></em><em> the menu board's offerings. </em>

All the verbs have the same form. This is a correct parallel structure.

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

A   and    C

Explanation:

Sometimes they sat down on the sea, near patches of brown seaweed that rolled on the waves with a movement like carpets on a line in a gale.

The bird flew parallel to the boat and did not circle, but made short sidelong jumps in the air in chicken-fashion.

Mother Nature has no fears, it doesn´t matter for Her if mankind could have some kind of fear.
