Answer 1

The correct answer is C) The repetition of “for” followed by negative verbs emphasized that there is a long list of bad things the King did.

Parallelism is used here to strengthen the argument by the repetition of “for” followed by negative verbs emphasized that there is a long list of bad things the King did.

In Grammar, Parallelism is a term that serves to arrange words that are the same or are equivalent, in a sentence or in a list. This helps us to write sentences with parallel structure in a good writing format. For example, if someone is saying what he likes during the summer, he/she can use parallelism stating that: “I like eating, reading, and sleeping”.
