Do juvenile killers deserve life behind bars

English
1 answer:
grin007 [14]3 years ago
5 0

This question refers to the article "Do Juvenile Killers Deserve Life Behind Bars?" by Nina Totenberg.

In this article, Totenberg discusses whether life in prison is too harsh a punishment for juvenile killers. The author does not take a position on this matter, and instead focuses on presenting arguments that describe both sides of the question. The main purpose of the author is to encourage readers to think about  the subject because legislation needs to be passed soon, and this is a difficult question that deserves consideration. She shows how important this matter is when she says:

<em>"Two years ago, the court used the same rationale when it struck down the penalty of life without parole for nonhomicide crimes committed by juveniles. But in Tuesday's cases, the court faces the question of life without parole in homicide cases... the big question before the Supreme Court on Tuesday is whether life without the possibility of parole is itself an unconstitutionally cruel and unusual punishment when it is applied to juveniles."</em>

How can the writer correct the parallelism
Lerok [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

The writer can correct the parallelism in three simple ways but first let’s learn what is this parallelism. Elements which are grammatically same in meaning, sound or meter are included in the sentences. This method gives a writing piece a balance it deserves.  

Now, if this technique goes wrong, how can it be corrected?

<u>Let’s explain with an example: </u>

<em>Mita likes mangoes, apples and going to the theatre. </em>

Here, the word “likes” acts as the trigger for a parallel structure and the phrase “going to”  is wrong as it is having a different grammatical structure.

<u>This can be corrected in three ways: </u>

<em>By making the grammatically incorrect part match with the other parts: </em>

Mita likes mangoes,  apples and theatres.

<em>By making the other parts match with the grammatically incorrect part: </em>

Mita likes eating  mangoes, eating apples and going to the theatre.

<em>By splitting the sentence: </em>

Mita likes eating mangoes and apples. She also likes going to the  theatre.
