The correct answer is the following: <em>option A. The error that is made in the sentence showed in the question is that the sentence lacks parallelism.</em> Parallelism is a grammatical construction used to balance nouns with nouns, participles with participles, infinitives with infinitives, clauses with clauses, in order to promote clarity and readability to any text.

In the sentence "Either do well in school or giving up the drums" the writer did not use parallelism and as a result, the sentence is not clear enough. The proper way to write such sentence would be: Either do well in school or give up the drums, so that there is a balance between the tense of the verb used within the sentence.

Which phase of a writing strategy involves deciding on the topic and the purpose of the essay?
Bogdan [553]
Well, from my experience, it would be prewriting. Prewriting is where you come up and brainstorm ideas. Its when you scribble ideas and write out a plan on the direction that you want your paper to head to, where you would write a list or draw a picture on key points you want to hit on the paper.

Sentence option 1 and sentence option 4

Explanation:

In the first sentence, it says "I do not like to be the Moon, I wish I were a star or a flower". In the fourth sentence it says "I wish my face would be as your face". Both of these sentences provide evidence that the Moon wishes he could be different.

Use this link to read “The Gettysburg Address” and share with me at least one example of each rhetorical device we learned today
Kruka [31]

Answer:

Logos: ..."we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain."

Here Lincoln appeals to his listener's sense of logic: it would not make sense that so many people should have died for no reason. Therefore, it is important that the fight continue.

Pathos: "The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract."

Here Lincoln appeals to his listeners' emotions (hearts), by telling them that the field was consecrated by the blood of the soldiers who fought there.

Ethos: "Fourscore and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal."

Here Lincoln establishes his credibility by demonstrating his great knowledge of American history and the founding documents of this country.
