It shows that something is intentionally missing. It is skipping out a part of a sentence, whether it be the start, middle or end. It means you took out a part from the sentence, like taking a citation from reference. At the start of a quote you may use (...)
<span>I would rather spend my vacation in a big city
than in a mountain cabin.</span>
Parallel structure refers to having the same
structure or parts of speech in the same sequence and function. In the sentence,
the parallel structure that needs to be paired with is “in a big city” which is
a prepositional phrase; so, the choice that has the same format is “in a
mountain cabin” which is also a prepositional phrase. “To go,” “staying,” and “being”
are obviously different for they are either an infinitive phrase or participial
phrase.
Answer:
E. :) i had this question before
Explanation:
The full moon shines brightly through the trees, making it my only source of light. My heart beats faster than a drum as I walk through the mysterious forest. After hours upon hours of wondering, I stumble upon a shed. Looking at it send shivers down my spine and the feeling of someone watching me strengthens. Not having any other source of shelter, I boldly walk towards the house. My vision starts to darken and my head pounds, but I continue to get closer. I can feel my body shutting down, as if I'm entering a trance. Yet I can't stop walking towards the house. My hand touches the doorknob, but at the same time I feel something touch my shoulder. I glance behind me and there it was. The next thing I knew I blacked out.
This is more of a short ish story that I rushed so you can add or delete anything you dislike, I'm not that good at writing im sorry!
