English

Answers: 1. When things go wrong, Carl tends to brood for hours and to blame others. 3. The school was closed not only because of the snow and ice but also because of the lack of heat. 4. The ice was a greater problem for the electrical power company than for the natural gas company.

Explanation:

Parallel structures in sentences consist of the repetition of a grammatical pattern. This makes sentences have grammatical consistency and flow naturally. Below, I analyze each of the sentences:

1. When things go wrong... This sentence shows parallelism because the elements "to blame others" and "to brood for hours" have the same grammatical structure ( to + verb.)

2. After watching some Tv... This sentence lacks parallelism because the first verbs are in -ing form but the last one "read" does not follow this pattern.

3. The school was closed... This sentence uses parallel structure because it includes the expressions not only/but also (correlative conjunctions) that show grammatical consistency.

4. The ice was a greater problem... This sentence uses the preposition "for" to introduce two different details, which shows a parallel structure.

Answer and explanation:

Character chosen for the following analysis: Mr. Darcy.

Mr. Darcy is one of the main characters of the romantic novel written by Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice. He's a very rich, very serious young man that does not show any kind of interest in meeting young ladies (unlike he's closest friend) since he has an arranged marriage from a really young age.  

This goes around this way until he meets Elizabeth Bennet, a young lady that will change all of his world all of a sudden, but, of course, this plot twist will show slowly along the whole novel.

Their relationships seems rough at first and they act more like two people that can't stan each other, but progressively they find out that they have a similar mind on various topics of interest. So from there on, their relationship starts getting better, more friendly, until it develops into something more.

What is Risky behavior​
Triss [41]

risky behavior can be seen as different things, theres a difference then risky,brave, and just plain dxmb, risky is in-between brave and dxmb, risky means theres well, a risk to it.

risky things would include dr0nk driving, texting while driving, riding a bike without a helmet, people who do risky things tend to know what will happen if they do it but they don't care, they like the rush of adrenaline they get from it. some risky behavior is just flat out dxmb and others not so much.

hope this helps :)
