Which phrases from the passage clearly critique the class system as the creature reveals his dawning understanding of it? Franke

nstein by Mary Shelley (excerpt) Every conversation of the cottagers now opened new wonders to me. While I listened to the instructions which Felix bestowed upon the Arabian, the strange system of human society was explained to me. I heard of the division of property, of immense wealth and squalid poverty; of rank, descent, and noble blood. The words induced me to turn towards myself. I learned that the possessions most esteemed by your fellow-creatures were, high and unsullied descent united with riches. A man might be respected with only one of these acquisitions; but without either he was considered, except in very rare instances, as a vagabond and a slave, doomed to waste his powers for the profit of the chosen few. And what was I? Of my creation and creator I was absolutely ignorant; but I knew that I possessed no money, no friends, no kind of property.

A. DIRECTIONS: Rewrite each sentence, changing nonparallel grammatical
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

1. Robbins profiles three successful adults who were rejected, mocked, and bullied in high school because they were different.

2. Runners, swimmers, and basketball players are all athletes, just different kinds.

3. Alexandra Robbins says that geeks can have character traits such as empathy,  intelligence, and creativity that serve them well later in life.

4. Robbins says that popular students might be instigators of aggression,  members of cliques, and exhibitors of exclusionary behavior.

5. The argument suggests that students who are popular may not do as well in  school and may not be as good at finding success after graduation. Correct

Explanation:

Non-parallel grammatical structures involve the use of verb forms that do not have the same base form when comparing two or more things. For example, this sentence uses verb forms that do not have the same base forms:  <em>Running, swimmers, and basketball players are all athletes, just different kinds. </em>The verb, running, is not in the same base form as swimmers and players.

Parallel grammatical structures make comparisons with verbs that are in the same base forms. Example is; <em>Robbins profiles three successful adults who were rejected, mocked, and bullied in high school because they were different. </em>Rejected, mocked, and bullied are all in the same base form.
