Answer:
A. The work was tedious, but we had to soldier on to meet the
deadline.
Explanation:
Connotation means when a word has an implied meaning as opposed to its literal meaning.
Therefore, the word 'soldier' is used connotatively in option A to show that although the work was difficult, they had to "soldier on" which means they had to keep working in order to meet the deadline. This is quite different from the literal meaning of the word 'soldier' which is a member of the armed forces.
Answer:
The correct answer is A. Louise will be swimming, biking and running for her triathlon this weekend.
Explanation:
A parallel sentence is a sentence that uses the same form of a word throughout. In the sentence above, all verbs are used in their future progressive tense: <em>will be swimming, (will be) biking, (will be) running. </em>Therefore, their form is the same, and thus the sentence is parallel.
Sentence B is incorrect because different forms of the verbs are used: <em>will be swimming, bike, run - </em>as you can see, they're not the same.
